Hey! My name is Frida. Here are some things I’ve made.
I’ve made a spacesuit
Life’s too short not to make a spacesuit. That’s why I made my own, modeled after the one worn by Buzz Aldrin during the first Moon landing.
I’ve made lace locks
Plastfabrikken is an initiative by Nordic Ocean Watch in which old plastic trash is turned into new treasures. They have several moulds available, but now the youth group of the library wanted something new.
In 2023 I helped make their dream a reality through some workshops and a slab of aluminium.
I’ve made a sorting machine
Oslo Løa is a temporary floating pavilion educating the public about marine pollution. As a part of the Nordic Ocean Watch team, I got to design and build the «sorting machines» used for processing collected waste.
I’ve made a recycled trophy
«Gullklypa» is awared yearly by a Norwegian NGO to a person who has shown an extraordinary commitment to keeping their surroundings clean from trash.
The trophy is made from recycled plastic and brass and is reyclable.
I’ve made another spacesuit
Life’s too short not to make another spacesuit.
This suit is a replica of the Orion Crew Survival Suit (OCSS) which will be used during the Artemis missions in 2024 og 2025.
I’ve made a model kit
The Oseberg wagon is one of the most famous artefacts from the Viking age. What happens when the wagon meets a sheet of plywood?

I’ve made Norway’s most boring booklet about multiplication
The Scientist Factory’s learning programmes for mathematics are written by Hanne S. Finstad Ph.D and designed by me.
The math books used in schools today are designed in a way that
The math textbooks used in schools today are designed in a way that overloads children’s working memory. This makes it difficult for children to learn new things in mathematics. The boring design allows children to focus on what’s most important: namely, mathematics.
The booklets have been a great success for Forskerfabrikken and have been translated into English and Swedish. In 2023, a follow-up focusing on fractions is set to be released.
I’ve made tool tethering
Tool tethering helps prevent accidents while working at heights, so why is it not used more often? In the spring of 2023 I decided to find out why, and designed a new one-handed tool tethering system.

I’ve made engaging experiences
From 2010 to 2018, I was part of Forward Motion, which organized the cultural festival Desucon. We gathered thousands of children, youth, and adults with interests ranging from Japanese popular culture to science fiction and video games.
I’ve made a lot of T-shirts
In 2015, I founded Fanwear, a company that sells merchandise for artists, YouTubers, and other personalities. After generating sales of over one million Norwegian kroner in its first operational year, I sold Fanwear to the management company Compro in 2016.
