I am a musician living i Oslo, Norway.
I make music that I think is missing from my collection.
(Punk- Ambient - World - Folk - Pop - Noise
- Whatever i feel like when I'm doing it)
As a musician I have participated in a number of courses, plus taken private lessons at Norges Musikkhøyskole. (Norway..s Musical College)
I have worked with sound since 1992, and have studied at Norsk lydskole (now NISS Nordic institute of scene and studio)
Since 1995 I have exhibited my work/ installations at various galleries and exhibitions.
I have held approximately 500 shows in Europe, America and Africa plus worked with various artists from all parts of the world.
I have also worked with live- preformed sound for improvised theatre.
I have more than 50 releases as a musician in Norway and abroad.
As a sound technician/ producer he have been responsible for more than 40 productions in Norway and abroad
I have exhibited work at among other places: Stenersen museet, Oslo spektrum, at several occasions at Kunstnernes hus in Oslo, plus many smaller galleries in Norway and abroad.
I have also worked with children and culture, resulting in exhibitions, performance and other.
My work is mainly based on acoustic sounds, but I also work with electronic instruments, manipulation and effects.
I also work with photo and if necessary manipulation of photos.
Since 1995 I have studied ancient traditional music from various parts of the world. As a result of this , I was in Morocco in 1999 and 2002 to study Northern African traditional music and it..s connection to ancient Nordic music traditions.
Since the mid 90..s I' have been interested in music..s power to affect people both psychologically and physically, and has moved more and more towards studies of musical therapy.
I have also worked as a music instructor and conductor under the direction of NMF (Norges musikkorps forbund: Norway..s Band Association) Plus at various kinder gardens and schools in Oslo, where I have taken music into extensive use.
I am currently active with recording and production of music.

Reviews Music as diverse as their
homeland’s geography, bridging old world sounds with modern technology.
