i am a soundartist from kristiansand, norway. operating in the field of experimental music; acoustic, electroacoustic & electronic. working with simple tools, my project - so far - has been to make & collect sounds in my house and the immediate local environment. i use contactmicrophones, digital recorder & other cheap microphones. found objects are also important parts in my sound-compositions, that be a scrap toy car, floorlamp, dried leaves or a piece of wood. i also use instruments like 4 & 12 string bass guitars, 3 stringed acoustic guitar, flutes & a mouth organ coming from an accordion. often the compositions - or the soundpictures - are a study of one object, worked with in a software-editor. the compositions often comes to life through improvisations - deconstructed & reworked.
i also like making pictures to go with the sounds, these also from my local environment. i have no formal education, but have always been drawing & painting, and did study various graphical techniques with well known artists back in the 1970's. i have also played in some different rock & punk bands in that period.
i have released several works through the internet - alone, and in collaboration with others. i have also participated on several compilations.
