The electroacoustic piece 'Etapper' ('stages') is based on a text selected from the novel 'Kontrapunktisk' by the Norwegian writer Ole Robert Sunde. In the piece the spoken and whispered sounds from the writers reading of the text have been transformed, mainly by the use of digital and analogue filtering, echo and reverb techniques. Transitions of noise, also derived from these vocal sounds, have been used to mark the hidden transfigurations that lead the development from one stage to the next. 'Etapper' is commissioned by The Norwegian Centre of Writers. It received 1. and 2. prize in the International Rostrum for Electroacoustic Music in Stockholm 1988.
Recording of Risto Holopainen's Variasjonar over ei stille (silence et version). Variasjonar over ei stille (Silence and Variations) is based upon two poems by the composer. Although originally written in Swedish, here they appear translated by Elin Lotsberg into her own West-Norwegian dialect. Her readings of the poems, with widely differing characters, provides the sonic and structural material for the entire composition. Several phrases were transcribed and then resynthesized in a "blown-up" manner. The overall time proportions in the piece also relates to the proportions of speech and silence between the stanzas in a particular reading. The material was recorded at the Norwegian State Academy of Music in 1996, and the work was realized at NoTAM (Norwegian network for Technology, Acoustics and Music) in October 1997.
Recording of Elizabeth Anderson's Mimoyecques. The piece consists of two sets of recordings and electronics. One set of recordings would be made in and around the fortress and would serve as the base where the imprisonment, death, and transfiguration themes would be built. The second recording is in the languages of the 18 nationalities of the laborers. The central section of the work illustrates the idea of terror freedom is suddenly, inexplicably removed. The final section explores the concept of the departure of the souls of the victims.
