In 1995 I was spending a half year lonely on the countryside. A left over house from my grandma with lots of the original 40’s furniture, and a piano out of tune.
Heavily inspired by Stockhausen, Zen, John Cage, Morton Feldman and Jazz, I studied the timbre and spatial-ness of the sounds from this old piano. All recorded by lo-fi equipment as a old reel Tandberg (with valves) and a microphone made for signing. Some strings in the piano were also prepared.
At his house we spent many summer holidays, maybe the best summer experiences in my childhood.
This is the first episode of the total 3 tracks recorded from these sessions.

Today I received the catalogs from the project Sixth Sense initiated by the Swedish Church.
Sixth Sense, initiated by the Swedish Church invited 24 artists to do site-specific art works in 23 churches. So one artist for every church. Exhibit scedule 17 May – 2 September

I was amazed they actually did a separate edition in English instead of a bilingual one. The interesting was that the churches were presented also in combination with the artists in this catalog. The overall impression was that the catalog both maintains the easy art reader (not for SITE addicts) but at the same time an interested audience for the history in their area will get some glimpses of the churches in the diocese of Västerås.
I got some copies to sell in English or Swedish, give me a hint of what you like to buy them for.
