2001 FIRE HOUSE at Lunds Konsthall (City Gallery). A diary, artist´s residence and hostel. En vagabondistic and authentic narrative project from different continents and decades with methaphysical over tones that moves between text, sound, tone and autentic objects from the artist´s life building significant metaphores The interactivity ritualized the project. The customers could use the guest room over one night or borrow different games, use the wine bar, or the cafe, or join the artist for a chat in the atrium under the fig tree with it´s utterly slow ly rotating house with glass roof where the artist lived and slept under the stars . Lunds konsthall was my sole home and a concrete youth hostel as well l-which could be used by anyone - some did so. I remember Emma and Pelle who heard rumours about the free service on the bus to Lomma. I remember Johan travelling from Berlin and Helena and the beautiful Madeleine who used to drop by for a badminton match. I think that FIRE HOUSE philosophically was an antithesis to the previous century regarded as the century of speed. In FIRE HOUSE the audience was slowly strolling around in circles because of the inner architecture. The rotating tape recorder and the record player in the guest room and the rotating man and woman on the filmloop and the house on the atrium on a even slower circular move were all describing slow cycles at varius speeds as a huge time piece or as a methafor for the cyles of life, earth or cosmos itself. Anyhow threre might have been some highspeed action during the badminton games in the entrance hall
2002 I move to Berlin/Prenzlauer Berg, working in a sound studio with text och music experiments
2003 I start cooperation with ” Onsala Space Center” and ” Rymdbolaget” I finally managed to transform the sounds from our galaxy´s newly localized centre and black hole : ” Sagittarius A * ” with the aid of the satellite telescope ODIN.
This is a stellar churchyard because all stars finally will collapse into the hole. A cosmic metaphor for love and death - an elegy.
