Ranked One of the 100 Most Creative People in Business 2014!

Yay, the American business magazine Fast Company has ranked me as one of the top 100 most creative people in business in 2014. I'm incredibly honoured, humbled and happy of course! The other people on the list range from entertainers (like Jerry Seinfeld) to neuroscientists, fashion designers to app developers, architects and academics - all very cool individuals and causes. See all the winners and my profile. 

I made a special self portrait just for Fast Company, and above you can see how it came to life!

Gledelig 1.adventssøndag! Se min nye video for tips om hvordan man gjør julen til en morsom og sunn opplevelse for både små og store. Jeg håper selvsagt at boken min, "Leik med maten", også kan bli en fin julepresang rundt om i det ganske land. :)

Happy first of advent! See my new video above for tips on how to make christmas a fun and healthy experience for both kids and adults. I do of course also hope my book, "Eat Your Art Out" will become a nice christmas present around the world. :)
