Martin Ferro-Thomsen’s Summary
- Worked with communication on a multitude of levels, mainly in written/online formats.
- Facilitated large-scale network events/projects across multiple continents: Seeding, framing, scaling and disseminating.
- Written and edited in just about any genre out there: Prose, poetry, non-fiction, journalism, science, technical, blogging, drama, and hyper-text.
- I keep an open mind towards learning within adjacent fields of practice, and my strongest characteristic is probably this: entering a new field of practice; researching, rapid learning - and finally doing (always striving for flawless execution).
