Lysgaard Promo video

All right, the promo video for my electronic pseudonym Lysgaard is finally finished! Many thanks goes out to Jørgen Håland and Jonas Bødtker, on camera work and post production, respectively.

The video was made for international promotion, as a step towards more bookings abroad. The music used, if you want to know, is Aphex twin’s Windowlicker, Kraftwerk’s Planet of visions, and Inner City’s Good life (SMD remix).

Our debut music video is out!

Finally, after a year of sweat and toil and locking ourselves in the studio, our band Stöv (me, CT and Jørgen Håland), are releasing our debut music video and single. More words later, first watch it!

You can download the track free at Soundcloud, and/or buy the full version in super high MP3 bitrate at Art On Earth.

I’ll probably edit this post later about more stuff regarding the song and video, but for now, you can read up on the vimeo page.

also, there’s an alternate version, have a listen here:

Blood & solder as elements in type (what?)

We just finished a project in Expressive typography at school, and here are my results.
The class was basically about finding your way of expressing type, making the visual presentation synergize with the actual word, in a way. So i chose the word Techno, as is is a word I can easily put ideas on top of, it’s a word I am intimate with.

The video is meant to  show the technical and artificial, that are being given the human element; thus creating what we call techno, in music, art and so on. Big words, huh?
