  • On the pitch waiting for other ultimate players from Arnhem. Where are you? A bit of rain isn't going to put you off, is it? #
  • They came after all and we played a good hour of ultimate frisbee at De Leuke Linde, Arnhem. See you there next saturday at 10:00? #
  • Woke up from a nightmare which gave me an idea for a new television format. Typical, nightmares are always good TV. That's why TV is so bad. #
  • RT @ArjenKamphuis: Pechtold zet punt achter huwlijke ivm met zware wissel op politieke carriere: http://bit.ly/cusFuT #politiek #

  • Just helped someone from Salzburg, Austria with a question about *geek and Amsterdam* …on Aardvark! http://vark.com/t/ee04fe #
  • Just watched Four Weddings and a Funeral again. It's still a classic. Can't say what connects me to that film, but something does. #

  • The Dutch film 'Dorp aan de Rivier' surprised me by being critical of the way Dutch society treats people who have a passion and who excel. #

  • In 10 mins we're starting a new season of ultimate frisbee at 'De Leuke Linde' in Arnhem every sat from 10 to 11. Join us now or next week. #
  • A nice Italian dinner at home with Milanese risotto and sweet and sour peppers. Watched Monty Python afterwards, so it was a good evening. #
  • Still looking for people who have something interesting to tell about the #singularity. Helps if you live in the Netherlands or have Skype. #
  • Had an inspiring day away from the office. Thanks to Marko Martens for the good idea's and great insights into film! #
  • Just helped someone from Sydney, Australia with a question about *The Tweets* …on Aardvark! http://vark.com/t/b428e6 #
  • Spent all day searching for grants to finance my last year at the academy. It seems there might be some opportunities… #
  • Tomorrow it's time for our color correction. Just to see the film we'll have to get a special room and copy 15 GB of data. #
  • I feel like I could take on everything and – after our color correction was cancelled for technical reasons – I also feel like I did. #
  • Thanks to tai chi I have found a way to keep myself focused during this research marathon of thinking and discussion. #
  • RT @deRonbrown: Now that's a cool sounding concept – Technological Singularity: http://bit.ly/12ipR3 #
  • Just had a good brainstorm and inspiration session for our exam film about the #Singularity. Now for some dinner and reading. #
  • But first let's see what Clooney made this time. Up in the Air it is. #
  • Up in the Air is great. About love for people, life and purpose, just what we need in these strange times. I'd recommend it to a friend ;-) . #
  • Today: one masterclass, one meeting about the #Singularity with @arjenkamphuis and one ultimate training. Nice! #
  • In the middle of a deep philosophical discussion about film with Bruno Dumont. #
  • Bruno Dumont: "C'est le spectateur qui fait la difference." #
  • TY to @arjenkamphuis for our great talk about the #Singularity and great insights into public discusions in NL. #
  • Had a great evening at the training, but what sad news to hear Hans van Mierlo, a founding father of political party D66, has died. #
  • Today I have my fourth meeting about the #Singularity this week. @whiterdark collected some literature on the subject. #
  • Alice in wonderland is beautifully crafted and Johnny Depp plays great as always, but something seems to be missing. #

  • No tweets from me today :-) #didIjusttweetthat? #
  • Going to the sauna. Much too long ago that I spent a day just relaxing. #
  • Had a great day relaxing at the sauna and dining at restaurant Odessa in Nijmegen. Totally satisfied. #
  • Is there anyone who knows more about the Singularity in Europe? Who to talk to and who's doing what research? @vark #
  • Watching the Lift (1983). Awful, but it's on the compulsory list for the academy. #
  • The useful thing about the lift was that it's about AI. It's good to know that it will not be difficult to make a better film on that theme. #
  • #RTL alle zenders stonden 5 min op freeze frame en nu al ruim 30 min geen geluid. Bizar! Wie zit er in die eindregie? #
  • Going to bed early, tomorrow I'll be assisting on the set of The Murder of Bonifacius, so have to catch some sleep. #
  • Got up at 6:15 and still found time to do my chi kung excercises. This new found discipline is working great. #
  • Twee studenten in mijn coupé hadden nog steeds hun OV-chipkaart abonnement niet op orde. De invoering is nu al één grote catastrophe. #
  • Been setdressing all day, now going to the theatre… #
  • Research for our new film about the Singularity. Reading, talking, thinking. #
  • Watched "Hunting en Zn" tonight, and it was just bad. Totally unconvincing characters and storyline. Had fun talking to a friend though. #
  • Today we have our online for the Saint Nicholas Conspiracy, which means an automated re-edit in high quality. Hope it works in one go. #
  • …waiting for the AVID Adrenaline set to become available. A fourth year editor beat us to it, so the online will start this evening. #
  • Argh, my first grant request has been ditched, just because it's a second study. Couldn't they have said so on their site? #
  • Anyone who hasn't seen "A Serious Man" yet? Feel free to join me at 15:45 at Pathé Tuschinski. #
  • Been training with my new team Crunch 2 aka Oddjob. Nice training and a good start for the season. Looking forward to more. #
  • Our online is finished! I'm so glad it all went well. Now up for the grading and titling. #
  • Went to see "A Serious Man" yesterday. It sure is a masterpiece, but I have to see it again to know what to make of it. Fascinating. #
  • Argh, my new phone software does not support a large touchscreen keyboard. Must write… It hurts… Twitter. #
  • Going to Utrecht to help @freeksels with his new closets and lighting in his new home. #
  • Two IKEA closets are finally standing, but where are those wretched screws we need to put in the doors? #
  • Saw some beautiful designer lamps at a small store called 'de duif' in Utrecht. Very expensive but great design. Hope @freeksels gets one. #

  • Politiek24 wordt saai als er alleen maar uitzendingen van gisteren worden herhaald, terwijl iedereen op dé personferentie(s) wacht. #
  • Ah, politiek24 is weer live, zouden ze mijn vorige tweet hebben gelezen? Toch mooi die interactieve TV. #
  • Ik geef het op. Te moe, te veel belangrijke dingen te doen. Schoonmaken bijvoorbeeld. Zou de politiek ook moeten doen. SMS mij bij #deval. #
  • Just helped someone from Tehran, Iran with a question about *relationship problems* …on Aardvark! http://vark.com/t/1ddf54 #
  • Starting our last week of sound editing and mixing. Why are films always 'almost finished' for such a long time? #
  • Last day of being able to change any sound. Last minute inspiration gave us good results yesterday. I believe in the Saint Conspiracy. #
  • While our Saint Conspiracy doc is in its last stages of sound editing we're already brainstorming for the next film, about our future. #
  • Having found a new sense of purpose I'm now trying to get into the routine of practising chi kung every morning. Feels great. #
  • Just helped someone from Maharashtra, India with a question about *WordPress* …on Aardvark! http://vark.com/t/8df130 #
  • Back in the mix set, preparing for our final coaching session. Meanwhile, the Saint Nicholas Conspiracy is still out there. #
  • The last day is always very busy. It was impossible to finish all small nuances in time for the session, but the reception was good. #
  • The last touches are being put in and I can still laugh about scenes in the film. That's a good sign! #
  • Tonight at Panama: Navarone the band of our film composer Robin Assen. Don't miss it! http://is.gd/99FFw #
  • Argh, typical! Technical difficulties at the last moment. Now our rear speaker show a strange imbalance. Will do the final check tomorrow. #
  • Just drove 64km just to get a signature for a grant request. #
  • Now we're mixing again and it's almost over. After that I'm rushing to the Panama, to hear Robin play. #
  • It is done. We found some cool last last minute mixing ideas and tomorrow morning we have the final check of the Saint Nicholas Conspiracy. #
  • I just became the mayor of Nederlandse Film en Televisieacademie on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/b4g3EH #
  • Of course there were still some small things to fix. Special kudos to sound designer Richard Wilder for his precision and patience. #
  • Still have to deliver the grant request in Nijmegen. #
  • Our Saint Nicholas documentary is finished, but still needs some technical work. Grading, titles, DVD authoring, that kind of stuff. #
