Live

I have several live setups, depending on what is wanted or what i think is most appropriate for the given situation. All live ets are adjusted accordingly to the place and audience.


Greenland Ice Lecture

The Greenland Ice lecture brings you the best from both science and art. It is a lecture about the melting of the gletchers. The morphology of the landscape and the mechanisms of the ice front. The lecture is combined with beatiful photos. In between each part, a piece of music will be played with visuals. Each music video is made from video and sound materials from Greenland. The mixture of geological experience and the visuals combined with the music brings an extensive background to the music itself and the dissemination of science on a personal level for everyone.

Duration 20 - 40 minutes.


Story Telling

Story Telling is about telling a Story to the music. Basically the music and the story is braided together to unity and has much similarity with literature on stage! I have composed several stories that can be used live and all stories are accomplished with video.

  • Cold War Secret Plane Observations - About the paranoia of unidentified flying objects in 1950-1960. Includes lots of footage and US patent of UFO designs
  • Carcosa - An atmospheric piece with the poetry to Champers ' King in Yellow'
  • Color out of Space - Audio story of the short story from H.P. Lovecraft!

Duration: 30 - 60 minutes (Depends on the setup).



Drop Machine & Aquarium

Drop Machine utilized the sound of drops. The Drop Machine requires some space and preparation time. The setup can be in stereo, 4 or up to 8 channels. Also Drop machine is a collaboration with clarinet player Lotte Maxild.

Duration: 30 - 60 minutes.


Jazz'n'Noise

Taking the atmosphere from jazz music from the 1920ties and 30ties using a amplified mechanical record player combined with prepared audio/video, effects and noise generators. The result is a audible and visual collage of impressions of a forgotten era with the happiness and melancholy.
Duration: 20 - 30 minutes

The Jazz'n'Noise is about playing old Jazz records on a amplified mechanical record player and mix it audio-prepared video and effects. All effects are played live, taking the sounds from the record player or video and creating drone music.

A part of the live set is the gramophone player. Here old jazz tunes are played live. The Gramophone has been amplified at the pickup, so in addition to the sound from the cone, I also manipulate the pickup sound directly - and live.




Here is a short track from a live session at Fairbar in Aarhus, july 2012.
