(eng.: Foreign Noise)
The project consists of two sculptural figures that communicate via sound. The suits that are battery powered, has integrated speakers and sound in the design. The sound is controlled by a performer inside each costume through various sensors coupled to a Arduino which also produces the sound in each figure.
The project is a collaboration with artist Ida Hy and supported by Rethink 2017.

Speaker sweatshirt uses sound and technology together with the human body to form an human sound sculpture. The work consists of a sweatshirt with 5 integrated speakers and an external sub/amplifier through which is played a specifically composed soundscape. The work investigates the space between sound art, installation and the concert format.

I participated in Artparade 2012 at ACTS performance festival and Roskilde festival as a part of artist René Schmidts piece Bilkna.
“Bilkna is a contraction of Bilka (danish grocery store) and Kina (danish word for China). The work is based on the meeting betweenparade tradition as seen in the Chinese New Year parade and Danish Supermarket corporation/ Maersk schizophrenic aesthetics.” -René Schmidt
My contribution is made from red fabric and old battery driven ghettoblasters. It plays a sound collage made of audio material from 90s Bilka advertisings.
