Organa Sensuum at Gallery Ramfjord, Oslo

The interactive sound-art exhibition «Organ Sensuum» had it’s premiere at Gallery Ramfjord October the 8th 2011.

Pulse and velocity from the heart is derived by two separate analyses to create control data input to a meticulously programmed control system that engages four groups of instruments.

Museé Reattu in Arles, France
