Meet the human behind the screen


Dazé Nikulásson is a writer, photographer, and filmmaker from Reykjavík. For the longest time, he had an international presence, having lived in the south of Spain, central France, and the capital of Japan. Currently, however, he is back in his homeland busy with work, and hoping the volcanoes don't get to him.

As revealed above, his path of choice is the dark and daunting artist's path. Has it been hard for him? *Sarcastic laugh* Has he managed to fool the gatekeepers and get his foot in the door? Not yet. Is he planning to pack up and give up on his dreams? Well, as a creative, he cannot exactly ignore the calling.


Curious about his priorities?

In no particular order, they are …

  • 📺 Assisting a producer to develop a television franchise — early stages
  • 🎬 Co-writing a miniseries — outlining the episodes
  • 📩 Delivering monthly newsletters — you should subscribe
  • 👟 Taking daily walks — his sanity depends on it
  • 📷 Cameraless — weighing his purchasing options

Care for some trivia?

(First-person Dazé will answer these.)

🪣 Favourite colour?

Dark teal, like the bucket. (Answer only works if you use Apple Emoji.)

🧋 Coffee or tea?

Both; I go through phases.

🕹️ Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle?

Gotta catch 'em all, right?

☁️ Preferred type of cloud?

The cumulus is hard to beat; cirrocumulus as a close second.

🕺 Singing or dancing?

… Are those the only options?

🐋 Spirit animal?

Oops, spoiled it in the question …

💭 Most recurrent pillow worry?

There's still a lot I haven't put into words yet.


More cannot be said on a page like this. If you truly wish to get to know him, I suggest you join his membership, subscribe to his newsletters, and read his collected essays; there's a reason he calls this site the metropolis of my soul.
