Morten Carlsen

I have worked as a professional musician with point of departure in worldmusic and free improvisation. Later I worked with various forms of contemporary music, both as a musician and composer. From 1988 the computer became a crucial tool, and series of interactive compositions and installations were created. The compositions combined sounds, robotics, interface building, light, videosyntesis, pyrotechnique, and scents. From 1995 I worked with soundart for the Danish Radio. In 1999 I received the National Arts Foundation's three-year grant for further artistic work. I have a master in electronic music and composition from DIEM, Royal Academy of Music, Aarhus, Denmark.
