I recorded 15 layers of guitar, each processed through a different Csound instrument that I wrote anew for each layer.  Each layer is simple, each has its own timbre.  Somehow I find it all comforting.

In spring sunlight
the rows of tea bushes
ripple like waves



Tōge Morita (1924-2013) was a Japanese teacher and poet from Osaka. In the early 50s, he started publishing his poems in the Katsuragi 葛城 magazine, later becoming its editor-in-chief and, in 1990, its editor.

oshio Kiyosaki (1922-1999) was a Japanese haiku poet and scholar of Japanese literature. He published a biography of Kyoshi Takahama in 1966 and co-authored Kyoshi Monogatari, another study on the renowned haiku poet, in 1979.

The Milky Way (amanogawa, or "Heavenly River" in Japanese) is a kigo for Autumn, mainly because that's when the galaxy is most visible in Japan.

Kaga no Chiyo-jo (1703–1775) was a haiku poet discovered by Kagami Shiko at a very young age. She became a Buddhist nun at 52 and wrote around 1,900 haiku in her lifetime. A highlight of her poetry career was presenting haiku to a Korean delegation in 1763, one of the first cultural exchanges of this kind.

Performance, composition, sound installations, and programming. I work as a professor of music technology at NTNU.
I am particularly interested in the interaction of composition and improvisation, and I use various custom software solutions for improvisatory interplay between me and the computer.
Another area of special focus for me is granular synthesis (what I'd like to term "particle synthesis" when merging all known forms of the granular technique). I use Csound and Python as my main tools, and I've designed some opcodes for the Csound language.
In the past I have worked with the groups Krøyt and Motorpsycho.
