I have for some time been writing on a book about development and use of music technology in Norway. The includes the development from around 1930 and (almost) up until today. First draft was sent to a publisher in the middle of June, with hopes that the working title Electric Sound in Norway will wake their interest.
Digital Dynamics
Just sent off an abstract for a book chapter that will appear in an upcoming publication:Digital Dynamics in Nordic Contemporary Art. The book will be edited by Tanya Toft, and will consist of a number of chapters that will discuss different sectors and their development, all departing from 100+ artist statements. My contribution will be a description of the development in nordic music and other audio arts in the period 1980-2015.
UCSD, San Diego
This is where I’ll be staying
In January and February I am due for a short sabbatical, and will take the opportunity to visit at UCSD. In the next two months I will be continuing work on a book about Music Technology in Norway, and start new work for a larger Danish project about the Nordic Avant-garde, plus start another book chapter.
Welcome
Having constructed my own webpages since 1994, I decided to finally migrate the static pages to a CMS. This will make updating and maintenance easier, and more importantly facilitate more frequent updates on my research- and other projects.
I owe great thanks to Thomas Johannessen for coding og tweaking of the design!
