2020
Not much activity here for the past few months because of the effects of the Covid-19 lockdown and its crushing effect on art production.
Here's a short text written by a car (yes, you read that right) about my performance "Moving Home" from November 2019, which was a dialogue inspired by Ed D'Souza's Migrant Car, at the time located outside Kunsthall 3.14 in Bergen.
More about the Migrant Car project here.
Spanish TV program La aventure del saber covered the Accion!MAD 2019 festival which I participated in back in October 2019.
Skip to the 31 minute mark.
Current projects:
Since March 13, I've streamed 2 concerts from my living room (see below), resumed working on my satire / sound-sketch collaboration with Håvard Henriksen and started on a video which deals with competition, the emotions it sparks and the internet phenomenon of reaction videos.
Concert stream links:
