About Me

These photos were taken at the second annual icefestival at Geilo, Norway 2007, where icesculptor Bill Covitz and I made the world's first functionable iceguitar. Together with Anneli Drecker of Bel Canto, we closed the festival's first day with a concert of freeimprovised icemusic. The following night (by full moon) I stationed myself inside the igloo you can see below, and recorded several hours worth of material with the instrument. Hopefully it will be available on cd next Winter.
