MULTI is a concert series at Lydgalleriet / Østre using their semi-permanent 24 speaker surround sound louspeaker rig. The MULTI concert series commission new works for multi-channel speaker setup, giving new musicians, composers and sound artists the opportunity to express themselves using spatial sound.
Since 2015 I have been co-curating this series.
MULTI is a collaboration between Lydgalleriet, BEK, NOTAM, Borealis and Electric Audio Unit and entails commissions and development of new work, software development and competence building within surround sound, as well as presenting important Norwegian and international works.
