bio

I'm a composer, sound-designer, engineer and consultant living in Bergen (NO).

I have a sound based practice evolving within a cross-disciplinary field merging contemporary music composition, electronic music, engineering and sound-design. I am very sensitive to current social, environmental and political topics related to technology and advocate for open science, free education, and free, libre and open source technologies.


As a musician, performer and improviser, I have been playing with the French ensemble DIME (APO33), Grand Computer Orchestra, 20kHz Orchestra, Hans Tammen's Dark Circuit Orchestra, nyMusikk Bergen Band and shown and produced personal and collective projects in Europe and USA. I also maintain a small career as a music-producer, sound-engineer, rapper and DJ under many different aliases. I like to explore and release many genres of music.


I currently work as head-engineer for electronic and digital media at the Faculty for fine-art, music and design, University of Bergen.


Since 2015 I offer AV and IT consulting for visual artists, musicians and cultural institutions who desire to work and include technology in creative projects, through my company Ant Art. Through that company I also conduct research projects that I use within my sonic and musical practice (DIY synthesizers, DIY microphones, custom software, custom hardware).


In the past I have worked with children and teenagers in the field of education to digital technologies, and volunteered for various  non-profit cultural institutions related to music and/or technology (APO33, Piksel, nyMusikkBergen).


Despite my ideological and sociopolitical stands against licensed software, patented technology and more generally anything related to the free-market and/or wild capitalism, I find it hard to live in this world without making compromises, you will therefore find me and my work on many social media and streaming services.
