Live @ Art Hack Day, Bonniers Konsthall
Excerpts of 30-minute performance by me & Raquel Meyers. Made with two C64s, a videomixer and a delay pedal. The music was composed completely from scratch, live infront of the audience, and all the visuals are text graphics.
Filmed by Psilodump at Art Hack Day, Bonniers Konsthall, April 2013.

How to make C64 music
I recorded myself making some beats from scratch on the C64. Acid funk skweee something? Nothing fancy, but gives you a peek into how it works. Or not. But just copy all my moves and then you have a C64-song!
Obviously there's lots of boring parts, because this wasn't supposed to be a live jam like 2SLEEP1 or sth. Skip and be happy.

The Ferret Show: A Musical With Uwe Schenk Band
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQEw602X6F0&feature=share&list=PLkkD_97Wy253GB-yj2foKlEbUMx5G2ns7
This is a 20-minute musical performed by me, 4 musicians and Raquel Meyers. Uwe Schenk rearranged my songs for bass, saxophone, harpsichord (spinet) and drums. Raquel animated the story with text graphics, and sequenced it live.
Most of the songs are tightly arranged, but others are quite improvised. I used a tracker to change some songs on the fly, and also played the C64 as a piano using Cynthcart. Quite a challenge to be as pro as the Uwe Schenk Band!
The videos are available in better quality at Uwe Schenks website. The original songs are either unreleased, from here or Cherry CD or perhaps lurking around on internet2008.
Big up to Uwe Schenk and Dragan Expensiveshit for making this happen!
Fax Performance Recording
http://youtu.be/REFHf-3o0Ds
Last year I made a fax performance, where we had a phone line open for incoming faxes, and another one for internal PETSCII faxing. There is now a Tumblr that shows one of these faxes every day.
As for the music, I turned pre-made songs into droney jams, and I drowned it in Ableton delays. It was filmed by TVMarineret, who did some pretty hardcore editing of the material. The first part is here and contains more accordion and clownery.
