Welcome to my home page

Here I plan to publish info and other material related to what I do, have done and perhaps also plan to do. By now, the sounds and voice page are still not without content, but I will try to work with it when I can to fill it with interesting stuff.

Live electronics from a performativity perspective

February 1st 2011 I started my postdoctoral project entitled Live electronics from a performativity perspective running until summer 2014. The project is closely related to Performativity; Art, Communication and Knowledge Formation , a new interdisciplinary focus area at the Faculty of Humanities. Throgh this project I hope to gain an increased understanding of the interrelationships between performer, musical instrument, audience and context/situation in performances of live electronic music. More info and dedicated project pages to come soon. (Published Feb 1st, 2011)

The Tower Block - Post Mortem - "Høyblokka - post mortem"

The art and research project "The Tower Block - Post Mortem" has now launched its website and Facebook profile. See hoyblokka.no and Høyblokka on Facebook (Pages are in Norwegian). The project aims at gathering accounts of memories people in Trondheim and Trøndelag have of the so-called "Tower Block", the old main building of the region's hospital (St.Olavs hospital). The memories will form the basis of a multi-media performance held on New Years Eve, marking the disappearance of this emotional landmark in a ceremonial fashion. I will be involved in the project mainly doing sound design/composing, but also assisting the collection of memories.
