Stuttgart – Stockholm – Stuttgart

Some events coming up:

> 27 October: a very special live performance in Stuttgart. Together with Uwe Schenk and his band I’ll perform along with text visuals by Raquel Meyers. Both songs and improvisations. Don’t miss out! Read more.

> 10 November: live gig at Nalen (Klubb Escape) in Stockholm, with visuals by Raquel Meyers. Also performances by Dunderpatrullen and Djurpark.

> 14 November: Talk at the public library in Stuttgart, as part of the series Do You Believe In Users?. The point is to talk about the 8-bit underground from the perspective of the user, and explain why ideas like nostalgia, limitations and appropriation just doesn’t cut it anymore.

Smålands Mörkerparty

Henrik Bromander, one of Sweden’s brightest/darkest stars in comics, is throwing a release party for Smålands Mörker in Göteborg next weekend. Me and Raquel were invited to perform, oh yesh! Will be good to return to Galleri Oro again, after 5 or 6 years.

Live Performances in Text Mode

Are there any people who perform in text mode? Yes. Me and Raquel Meyers have two text mode performances coming up – both in Göteborg (Norway). The first one is at the chip-noise event BIT BRUS. We will only use C64s, so it’s 100% PETSCII SID DATA. Improvisations will be based on Oso, Acid Burger, In The Name of the Sword and other petscii hits.

The second performance/installation is called Mind the Volcano and will be presented at Textival. The idea is to explore the area inbetween books and movies (film and typewriter) in text mode. There will be 40 headphones for the audience to use. Musically, the sounds will be more like 2SLEEP1.

Lazy Hyper Sunday Malmö

If you’re in Malmö tomorrow, swing by BYOB. Raquel Meyers will beam some text characters, I’ll make sounds and there’ll be support from Jacob Sikker Remin and Linde and the rest.

Fax! Fax! Copenhagen!

Let’s fax shit up! On December 9th at Demoteket in Copenhagen I’ll make sounds for Jacob Sikker Remin’s fax installation with fax visuals by Raquel Meyers (who also designed the flyer). Did I meantion fax?

Fax! Really happy to finally do something with the fax. Been talking about making a fax-based magazine for years. If anyone out there has a fax, let me know because I want to fax more. Fax! FAAX.

I’m doing a tour called SWElectronica together with Raquel Meyers and Random. We’ll be in Moscow, St Petersburg and Petrozavodsk. More info at my live-page (or, well, not really). Maximum turbo acid, in training!
