about

This album is made from sounds recorded in the workshop of Arne Magnus Johnsrød; sounds coming out out processes when metal in different forms, types and qualitites is shaped and reshaped into finished works of art. Likewise, the sounds are shaped and reshaped into finished sound objects with an independent existence as art objects; these too, like the metal objects, with little or no obvious similarity to the material – metal or sound – that was the starting point of the processes.

Since the finished metal objects are not shown here, the options for imagining possible connections between sound and objects – or sound processes and metal processes – are entirely up to the listener. Since some of the metal objects were finished after the sound compositions, one can also imagine influences from the sound to the metal objects. We – Arne Magnus Johnsrød og Tellef Kvifte – can assure you that any such imagined connection will be purely coincidental, and not intended by any of us.
