Erratic and Erotic Voice-led Composition (PhD)
(2026)

This is a practice-based artistic research PhD which investigates ways of being with intensities felt in the body and of artistically integrating them into sonic expression. It aims to do so by building sensory precision particularly through use of the voice. I consider voice as a somatic tool that aids in feeling these intensities, and that helps build knowledge about the self and its situated context. I put this sensual knowledge in contact with existing theories of affect and atmosphere, introduce the idea of ADHD selfhood and draw these together in presenting the practice of erratic and erotic voice-based composition. I discuss the processes of making and contexts around twelve distinct and diverse instances of artistic practice that include participatory works in one-to-one or small groups, co-creative duos, small group workshops and ensemble work. I foreground here not just embodiment but the specific body that has done this research, moving through a neurodivergent intersectional complexity that refuses identarian precision, preferencing a tenacity of feeling that invites witnessing and companionship as ways to get to know it.

I'm on the path to deneurotypicalize acting technique and understand what a social media actor might be and do and and if there is or should be a difference between a neurotypical and neurodiverse way of applying oneself and communicate with said audience on said platform(s)?
During my work I coined the term 'deneurotypicalize' and a definition of art as ART.
Welcome to my exposition: This part is more to be seen as an extended documentation over my 2 years and also as a compendium to my master thesis published on DIVA and my performance lecture 2nd of May at Stockholm University of the Arts. And/or a thing of its own.
Both the exposition-documentation and the master's thesis is also in this exposition.
