I'm a videographer, photographer, live improvisational visual artist,
activist
and a functional programmer. I spend a lot my time thinking about the systems
of my surroundings.
Currently I'm in the process of developing as an
artist, while using and evolving my videosynthesis instrument
niseq
.

At F#nctional Copenhageners, October 2023
Talk on Fry
- a library that exposes elegant operators for
constructing rhythm-machines and other interactive systems, together with
FRP. These concepts can even be reused outside of the audio/visual context;
'envelopes' triggered by events are for example directly useful for
animating GUIs.

A live demonstration of the compositional
mtag
CLI semantics, its expressive query-DSL,
and a walkthrough of its functional OCaml codebase.
At Cph Music Maker Space, August 2021
In this talk I went through the ideas and history behind niseq
and a couple of
new workflows
I implemented to create longer improvisational pieces of
art. I performed a short livesession on top of a an unreleased piece of music made
in Super Collider. Interesting discussions ensued in the Q/A session.
At Bornhack, 2020
This talk is one of my first public exposures of niseq
.
It includes the ideas behind niseq
as a tool and the technology.
It also begins with a short live improvisation - where the
full performance at the same festival is here.

Flappy is a simple, pure, functional reactive game in the browser. It's implemented with an Elm-like structure, game-entity subtyping using polymorphic variants, local multiplayer and collision-detection.

Users connected to each others unikernels, each unikernel visualizing its connections.
At F#nctional Copenhageners, 2016
The implementation of an interactive art-installation using OCaml running on the Raspberry Pi with sensor-input, and interfacing with Supercollider.
