Borge Ring - Run of the Mill

Requested by the animator. Want to talk to Borge himself? He's alive and kicking and spends a lot of time on internet. Go to www.borgering.com and click "talk to Borge". This website was designed and published for him at his 90th birthday by his daughter Anne-Mieke Bovelett-Ring (www.gepresenteerd.nl) with the assistance of Mark Reed (www.multiintech.com).

Hey all of you :-) Borge turned 90 in February (2011) and as a birthday present he was given his own website. You can now comment to him directly, you find the link in the description of the video.

Borge Ring is one of my family-members, his work is amazing.

[compufairy]

Hi Annette,

That means you are one of my cousins :-))) I am his daughter!

regards,

Anne-Mieke

[AnetteNoeje]

Oh how great! But i am proberbly not your cousin though, but maybe you know Bo Bak then? He is my uncle? He must be your cousin?

:)

Bo has told my so much about him, and i've always wanted to meet him - such a shame he lives in Holland!

[compufairy]

Hi Annette,

yes, Bo is a full cousin of mine :-) So somehow we are related in a far away sense. where in Danmark do you live? From Ribe it's a 7,5 hour drive to Börge...

very nice, thanks for adding this. Nice  to see a good Dutch production which normally is very hard to obtain. (allthough Borge Ring is Danish, no?)

[compufairy]

Yes, he's Danish :-) But he has lived in Holland longer than in Denmark by now. He's 86 and still alive and kicking!

I really appreciated it. This animation could also be related to alcohol which's as damaging as any other drug.

[axavild]

Your father is a marvel, Anne-Mieke. A movie commencing in warmth gets suddenly very cold indeed. Read my full review in the Animation Blog, via my profile.

Une animation d'une surprenante clairevoyance. Belle musique.

Beautiful animation, very bright. Nice music too.
