This is the ninth edition of Sonisk Selskap in Wrap’s AV Lab. The three day laboratory was led by Hilde Annine Hasselberg and recorded by Matias Grønsdal. The laboratory ended as always with a 30 minute improvised multi-media concert (on the 12th of October) with dance improvisation by dancers from ImproLaBergen in Studio A, and the Big Project Room. Øystein Nesheim made a live drawing, using pencil and paint markers in the Big Project Room, responding to the dancers and music in real-time.

A live audience experienced the musicians live in Studio B, together with projections showing the dancers in the Big Project Room and Studio A, as well as Nesheim’s live drawing.

A more comprehensive discription of the residency will be posted shortly.
