A SCI-FI CONFESSION

As all worn tapes do, this one starts with a bit of static. In 2003, the US Government initiated an invasion of Iraq on a false pretext to retrieve a legendary artifact. This is a confession, of a genius quantum physicist, who works on a highly classified project, for a US Government experimental research program, codenamed Hourglass. To save the universe and the human species from extinction, he has to travel back in time and make a videotape, a temporal relocation, a paradox in the spacetime continuum that will adjust the course of history. The monologue is based on true events. Available on eBook

ADWARD WINNING ART FILM

Life is like an old vinyl record and if you don’t change track or melody once in awhile you will start feeling trapped in your own mind, but the mind is a powerful thing — when you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change. THE ORANGE TUNE is about the danger of daily routines and how hard it is to break free from once comfort zone. This is an experimental film by Martin Sommerdag starring the talented performance actress IngaMaría Eyjólfsdóttir.
