Först på trummor var Jolly Bod men ersattes snart av Martin. På inspelningarna från 1983 sjöng dessutom Katte Salomon. Musik och text skrevs av bandmedlemmarna men texter skrevs även av Joakim Pirinen och Persa Jacobson. Bandets första namn var "Arne & his anabola steroider". Namnet "Zö Kramers" kommer från Kramer-Pollnows hyperkinetiska syndrom - (danssjuka) ett psykotiskt tillstånd kännetecknande för bandets dansinspirerande stil. Mellan 1978-1983 skrevs ett fyrtiotal låtar. Ett tjugotal konserter hölls mestadels på Lidingö. Bandets största "hit" var Tyska marionetter. Liveinspelningar finns sedan begynnelsen och ca 25 konserter genomfördes men mer studiomässiga mixningar gjorde i fyra omgångar där den första gjordes 1979. Inspelning gjordes med en fyrkanalig TEAC rullbandspelare samt TEAC mixerbord. Ljudförbättringar gjordes 2002 samtidigt som digitalisering samt 2020 inför lanseringen av denna webbsida.

In progress Dorsal Practices — Murky Back Thinking is a collaboration between choreographer Katrina Brown and writer-artist Emma Cocker, for exploring the notion of dorsality in relation to how we as moving bodies orientate to self, others, world. How does cultivation of a back-oriented awareness and attitude shape and inform our experience of being-in-the-world? The dorsal orientation foregrounds active letting go, releasing, even de-privileging, of predominant social habits of uprightness and frontality — the head-oriented, sight-oriented, forward-facing, future-leaning tendencies of a culture intent on grasping a sense of the world through naming and control. Rather than a mode of withdrawal, of turning one’s back, how might a backwards-leaning orientation support an open and receptive ethics of relation? How are experiences of listening, voicing, thinking, shaped differently through this tilt of awareness and attention towards the back?

A search for new forms of identity programs for places; with emphasis on democracy and non-commercial resources. Research fellow project (2011), the Norwegian Artistic Research Programme.

Topographies of the Obsolete is an artistic research project initiated by Professors Neil Brownsword and Anne Helen Mydland at Bergen Academy of Art and Design (KHiB) in collaboration with partner universities/institutions in Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, France and the UK. In 2012 the British Ceramics Biennial invited Bergen Academy of Art and Design (KHiB) to develop a site-specific artistic response to the former Spode Factory in Stoke-on-Trent as a key element of their 2013 exhibition programme. The project explores the landscape and associated histories of post-industry, with an initial emphasis on Stoke-on-Trent, a world-renowned ceramics capital that bears evidence of fluctuations in global fortunes.

This paper is concerned with ecological awareness in multimedia composition often with the use of data as a compositional tool. It covers the philosophy of ecological awareness I wish to represent in my work and the aesthetic principles used to portray it. The philosophy is largely based on Timothy Morton’s Dark Ecology with influence from other writers and artists. The reader will be guided through my methodologies of multimedia composition (acoustic, electronic and visual), in four different works. The motivation behind this research has come from wanting to engage with environmentalism not just through writing and individual actions but through art and how understanding the importance of perception of the environment can change our behaviour to it.
