- During the past decade, tangible sensor technologies have matured and become less expensive and easier to use, leading to an explosion of innovative musical designs within video games, smartphone applications, and interactive art installations. Interactive audio has become an important design quality in commercially successful games like Guitar Hero , and a range of mobile phone applications motivating people to interact, play, dance, and collaborate with music. Parallel to the game, phone, and art scenes, an area of music and health research has grown, showing the positive results of using music to promote health and wellbeing in everyday situations and for a broad range of people, from children and elderly to people with psychological and physiological disabilities. Both quantitative medical and ecological humanistic research show that interaction with music can improve health, through music’s ability to evoke feelings, motivate people to interact, master, and cope with difficult situations, create social relations and experience shared meaning. Only recently, however, the music and health field has started to take interest in interactive audio, based on computer-mediated technologies’ potential for health improvement. Here, we show the potential of using interactive audio in what we call interactive musicking in the computer-based interactive environment Wave. Interactive musicking is based on musicologist Christopher Small’s concept “musicking”, meaning any form of relation-building that occurs between people, and people and things, related to activities that include music. For instance, musicking includes dancing, listening, and playing with music (in professional contexts and in amateur, everyday contexts). We have adapted the concept of "musicking" on the design of computer-based musical devices. The context for this chapter is the research project RHYME. RHYME is a multidisciplinary collaboration between the Centre for Music and Health at the Norwegian Academy of Music, the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO), and Informatics at the University of Oslo. Our target group is families with children with severe disabilities. Our goal is to improve health and wellbeing in the families through everyday musicking activities in interactive environments. Our research approach is to use knowledge from music and health research, musical composition and improvisation, musical action research, musicology, music sociology, and soundscape studies, when designing the tangible interactive environments. Our focus here is interaction design and composition strategies, following research-by-design methodology, creating interactive musicking environments. We describe the research and design of the interactive musicking environment Wave, based on video documentation, during a sequence of actions. Our findings suggest some interactive audio design strategies to improve health. We base the design strategies on musical actions performed while playing an instrument, such as impulsive or iterative hitting, or sustainable stroking of an instrument. Musical actions like these can also be used for musicking in everyday contexts, creating direct sound responses to evoke feelings that create expectations and confirm interactions. In opposition to a more control-oriented, instrument and interface perspective, we argue that musical variation and narrative models can be used to design interactive audio, where the audio is seen as an actor taking many different roles, as instrument, co-musician, toy, etc. In this way, the audio and the interactive musicking environments will change over time, answering with direct response, as well as nose-thumbing and changing response, motivating creation, play, and social interaction. Musical variation can also be used to design musical backgrounds and soundscapes that can be used for creating layers of ambience. These models create a safe environment and contribute to shared meaning.

Co-created staging : situating installations
- 2011
-
Ingår i: Interactive Media Arts Conference, IMAC2011, Re-new digital arts festival. - Copenhagen.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Staging is the creative act of showing something to an audience.When staging, the artist choose and create the context, situationand structure of the presented object, play or installation. The chosen context and situation provide background for the audience interpretations. Meaning is co-created between the artist and audience, based on the cultural and individual understanding of the context and situation. The term installation is open, ambiguous and undefined. One does not completely know what to expect and where to find an installation. It is open towards many interpretations. In this paper we present how we worked with staging of two interactive installations in different exhibition situations, to provoke and motivate different interpretations, expectations and interactions. We argue for staging as a communicative strategy to attract and motivate diverse audiences and user groups to collaborate and co-create through interpretation and interaction. Further we argue that installations have to be open to many possible structures, interpretations, interaction forms and roles the user can take, and shift betweendynamically. When the user dynamically restructure, shift rolesand thereby re-situate the installation, the user is a co-creator in the staging act. We call this dynamic staging.

"Shoot ’em up -musik" : om musikaliska strukturer för interaktivt berättande i tevespelet Rez
- 2003

Ingår i: NM/T Nutida Musik/Tritonus. - 0029-6597. ; :2, s. 26-30

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Det musikdramatiska berättandet har idag lierat sig med nya medier och teknologier. Resultatet av detta är att gränsen mellan lyssnaren och den aktive kompositören håller på att luckras upp. I musiken till datorspelen finner vi ett musikdramatiskt berättande som genom interaktiviteten frångår det traditionella berättandets linjära narratologi. Att komponera musik som både är intressant och samtidigt flexibelt rättar sig efter en publik som fysiskt medverkar till att skapa musiken är kanske vår tids största utmaning för nu verksamma musiker, tonsättare och dramatiker.

- In this paper we want to explore Field as a concept and as a metaphor for understanding interactive systems. By interactive systems we mean both systems and artworks, where the user by interacting changes the course of events. We intend to show why we need new terms and why we consider Field to be a fruitful concept and term. Further we will show how the Field concept changes both our understanding of what we do as designers and composers and how we acknowledge our audience. We will exemplify the design consequences of the Field concept by going through some design considerations we made when designing the audio tactile installation Mufi.

Scripts of Kingship : Essays on Bernadotte and Dynastic Formation in an Age of Revolution
- 2008
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- When French Marshal Jean Baptiste Bernadotte was elected heir to the Swedish Throne in 1810, a dramatic dynastic venture commenced. In an age of revolutions, marked by political as well as cultural upheavals, the commoner from Pau was transformed into King Charles XIV John and the head of a new royal dynasty in Sweden and Norway. Although fraught with challenges, the venture proved successful. As restoration set in, and the Napoleonides of Europe fell one after the other, Bernadotte held fast, and today the dynasty is approaching its bicentennial on the throne.In nine illustrated essays, the formation of a dynasty is explored as it unfolded in media such as ceremonies, spatial arrangements, opera performances, publicity and panegyrics.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article focus on strategies that are used in the struggle to raise the status of a popular music form. By analysing the journalism of British composer/bassist/recording leader ‘Spike’ Hughes in Melody Maker in 1931-32, the shaping of a critical discourse based in jazz music is studied. By establishing a discriminating aesthetics of jazz promulgated by sophisticated experts, Hughes and others contributed to jazz being spoken of with an intellectualised attitude. This attitude was rooted in jazz’s musical style, stressing how jazz contained new qualities not to be found in established art music - qualities that would contribute to the evolution of music in general. However, since jazz in the thirties was still framed within a commercial production system, the expectations put on a named master like Duke Ellington would be almost impossible to fulfil.

Musiketnologi : Elva repliker om en vetenskap
- 2017
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- In October 2016 ethnomusicologists from Sweden, Denmark and Finland met to discuss and reflect over the development of ethnomusicology in the Nordic countries during the last 30 years – the themes that have been elaborated and the results that have been won; the current themes, theories, trends and tendencies; and the near future, how and in which directions the field may continue to develop. The eleven papers here collected present a broad range of perspectives on the roots and development of ethnomusicology in the Nordic countries, music archives and historical sources, the role, position and identity of ethnomusicology and ethnomusicologist in Academia at large, and within the fields of musicology, ethnology and anthropology in particular. A conclusion of the colloquium is that even though there is no ethnomusicological department in Nordic universities, the field nevertheless has become quite firmly established as an academic field of its own in the Nordic countries.

- The traditional role of the musical instrument is to be the working tool of the professional musician. On the instrument the musician performs music for the audience to listen to. In this paper we present an interactive installation, where we expand the role of the instrument to motivate musicking and co-creation between diverse users. We have made an open installation, where users can perform a variety of actions in several situations. By using the abilities of the computer, we have made an installation which can be interpreted to have many roles. It can both be an instrument, a co-musician, a communication partner, a toy, a meeting place and an ambient musical landscape. The users can dynamically shift between roles, based on their abilities, knowledge and motivation.

Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper performs a dialogue/an encounter between Madness (or the false mad Demidamia from the opera La Finta Pazza performed in Venice in 1641) and the Bastard (the illegitimate love child of arts, performance and education). Entangled they move through time, talking, confronting, shaping and diffracting a non‐existing form. Their method is about diffracting every inch of their journey. Meeting obstacles, facing resistance, walking into bubbles of flair and comfort, stepping into dilemmas and borderlands. Continuously asking themselves: What happens in the microscopic moment? When no/thing could even be imagined. On their way they challenge both time and existence. Learning through teaching through learning. Their journey is an ornamenting becoming in itself. It is an example of mattering as in meaning-‐making and knowledge processing, based on a performance of the indeterminable and affinity. The outcome in the performative encounter in itself – a potential model for teaching and learning in higher arts education.

Samtal om samspel. Kvalitetsuppfattningar i musiklärares dialoger om ensemblespel på gymnasiet
- 2010
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose of this thesis is to analyse music teachers’ collegiate discourses on ensemble playing with regard to dialogically expressed criteria and conceptions of quality, and to relate these criteria and conceptions to the national governing documents for upper secondary ensemble education. The study has two theoretical perspectives, that is, a didactical perspective and a dialogical perspective. The research setting as well as the research questions are clearly didactical, whilst dialogical theory is used both as a foundation for the research method and as an ontology against which the findings are interpreted. Topic analysis, which is based on a dialogical theory of sense-making according to which meaning is constituted in a double dialogical process between interactants, situation and socio-cultural traditions is the method used. Four groups of music teachers have discussed video excerpts of popular music ensembles from ensemble classes, and these discussions have been analysed with respect to topics displaying conceptions of musical and didactical quality. Topics are created through communicative projects, in which two or more people display a mutual understanding of what they are talking about. Thus, all conceptions of quality elicited from the participant groups of ensemble teachers are the result of intersubjective sense-making. The results show that the ideal of informal music-making is so strong that the groups describe teacher intervention as detrimental to musical progress. Very little is said about the sounding music, whereas physical expressivity, autonomy and joy of playing are prominent topics. The apparent lack of music-specific, “contextual” criteria and the low valuation of the teachers’ work are discussed as possible threats to the existence of music as a subject in the national curriculum.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- ABSTRACT: In my PhD research I depart from a female singer’s perspective of interpreting 17th century opera laments , based on musicologist Mauro Calcagno’s statement signifying the voice of the female singer as a symbol of Nothing in association with the concept of aesthetics in the early 17th century opera genre . The female singer, he points out, justified the relevance of “pure voice” and “over-vocalization” referring to two recurring tropes, pronounced within a larger discourse among 17th century intellectuals in Italy and France, concerned with the concept of aesthetics: the concept of nothingness and the singing of the nightingale. In this presentation I show my perceptions of the voice of Arianna. My aim is to better understand the use of ornamentation in my performance of Italian and French 17th century vocal music. Knowledge of ornamentation can be obtained by investigating at depth the singer’s process from the first encounter with the text and musical score, to the actual performance of stage. There are two important aspects I take into consideration. First, the intellectual discourse, contemporary to the creations and performances of the two laments by Monteverdi and Lambert, carries a great deal of information significant to vocal interpretation. Second, the oriental ornamentation is reflected upon the arts and architecture in Venice during the 16th and 17th centuries, but has not yet been fully addressed in relation to vocal ornamentation in the 17th century opera repertory. I have been observing the life and career of Signora Anna Renzi Romana, one of the first opera prima donnas active in Venice during mid 17th century. Her interpretations of laments and mad scenes made a great impact on her audience as well and on the intellectual academies supporting the early operatic events in Venice. As the sounding voices of the Greek Sirens seducing Odysseus and his sailors , Anna Renzi and her female colleagues seduced their audiences in the Venetian opera theaters. Renzi’s performances are described in a volume published to her honor in 1644, “La Glorie della Signora Anna Renzi Romana”. In my research I explore and reflect upon the vocal sounds of ‘trillo’, ‘esclamazione’ and ‘coup de gosier’ by merging these vocal ornaments and my experience of PURE VOICE to theories of Nothingness, debated by Italian and French17th century intellectuals in Venice and Paris. I also combine their thoughts and theories to philosophical theories of Nothing referring to Jean-Paul Sartre and Marcia Ça Cavalcante Schuback . My personal experience of the lamenting sound is then analyzed along with the glorious description of Renzi’s performances of the laments. Finally in my search for sources of vocal ornaments, I listen to voices and vocal music from the ‘east’, following the 16th and 17th century Venetian trading routes. The Eastern throat–beating ornaments and vibratos appears similar to the ones described by 17th century composers and authors like Giulio Caccini and Benigne de Bacilly, and they inspire my research towards different possible ways of performing the sighs, tears and pains of Arianna. This research and presentation is part of my PhD research project“Passionate Women’s Voices on Stage and an Interpretation of the 17th Century Lamenti and Scene di Pazzie”.

- The Boston Pops is a world-class orchestra playing “non-high Art music” in one of the most prestigious concert venues in the world: Symphony Hall in Boston. The first in its genre, with an impressive array of best-selling recordings, tours, and nation-wide radio and TV broadcasts, the Boston Pops has always been at the forefront of American music and has, over the years, achieved huge popularity. In 1980, famed Hollywood composer John Williams was named to succeed the late Fiedler. While several film composers had conducted film music concerts before, this was the very first case of a Hollywood composer appointed leader of such an important musical institution. During his fourteen-year tenure, Williams seized the opportunity to erode the “iron curtain” that segregated “applied” film music from “absolute” concert music.

Med Gårdagens Dörr på glänt : Povel Ramel och melodins epok
- 2009
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim of this dissertation is to examine the style of the Swedish entertainer Povel Ramel (1922-2007) as a composer and lyricist of popular songs, and to elucidate his relation to the older popular music culture, denoted "the age of melody". In the main part of the study the author analyses more than 80 works by Ramel, which he created in the 1950s and 60s. Many of the most characteristic features of the age of melody are outlined as a background to the analysis. The age of melody was the first period of popular music in the Western world - from the music hall to the bossa nova. It ended when rock became dominant over older types of popular song ("schlager"). Its musical roots were in the 19th century European parlour and dance music but gradually it became more and more influenced by American folk music. Along with the development from the pre-industrial world to the modern, urban, industrial world there emerged strong tensions between old familiar national traditions and new foreign temptations and threats. These tensions marked both the intellectual modernism and the popular culture through the whole age. Povel Ramel was in many ways the typical composer of the age of melody. His work encompasses all its predominant styles, genres and features; he catches the humour, the optimism, the distance and the tension between the old and the new, the Swedish and the foreign. And yet he was unique. His uniqueness lies in his attention and awareness of these styles and features, and in his concentrated and varied interpretations of them. He reflected the notional worlds of the age of melody in both poetical and philosophical ways, but most of all - with an unusual sincere playfulness.

Guldår & krisår : Svensk jazz under 1950- och 60-talen
- 2007
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the history of jazz in Sweden during two dynamic and critical decades, the 1950s and ’60s. My analysis also discusses methodological challenges that a (Swedish) jazz historian can face. It is a descriptive study which complements my production of a series of CD albums – including text booklets – called Svensk Jazzhistoria (Swedish Jazz History), issued by Caprice Records between 1999 and 2005. The 1950s have often been regarded as “The Golden Years” in Swedish jazz, while the ’60s witnessed a general “crisis.” The dissertation illustrates the principal differences between these periods, from both a musical and sociological perspective. The sources for this investigation are interviews with musicians and other people involved in the production of jazz performances and recordings, as well as jazz magazines and other printed material. The controversial connection between jazz and drugs is discussed. This dissertation also identifies what is typically Swedish in Swedish jazz during both periods. Lars Gullin’s recording of his composition Danny’s dream (1954) is examined from both musical and historical perspectives. There is a discussion of the influences of folklore on jazz musicians such as Jan Johansson and Bengt-Arne Wallin in the ’60s. Many Swedish musicians started as accordionists, and the significance of this instrument in Swedish jazz is considered. With the exception of the Swedish Radio Studio Orchestra under the direction of Harry Arnold, Swedish big band music of the ’50s was not up to international standards. Almost all big bands in Sweden disappeared in the late ’50s, but in the late ’60s there was a strong big band revival, together with swing – almost forgotten in the decade of free form and experimentation. Another topic is Swedish jazz vocalists, mainly female. When Monica Zetterlund made her “sensational” debut in 1958, Alice Babs had been the leading jazz singer in Sweden for many years. Zetterlund developed new areas of musical expression, including jazz singing in her native language, which was at first suspiciously viewed as a commercial strategy. Two different venues for jazz are examined: the famous dance hall Nalen in Stockholm and a small part-time jazz club for concerts in the northern city of Sundsvall. Finally, important and influential media such as the jazz magazines Orkester Journalen and Estrad, together with the Metronome Records company are considered.
