Asbjørn Blokkum Flø is currently working on a new BEK-commissioned music piece. He describes his work as follows: -Analogique IX is a 60 minute long electronic music piece where I try to get back to the electronic music’s musical core through a limitation in materials and methods. In connection with this work I will investigate new artistic concepts and compositional techniques._
Monday 6, Tuesday 7 and Wednesday 8 December BEK runs a VPT workshop. HC Gilje will provide a basic introduction to the use of a video projection tool he has developed. The workshop will consist of introduction, setup to get started, and then groups of three people each will work “hands on” testing different projections.
Free admission.
