MOUNT MEDIA / YOUR LAB ASSISTANT
I make things out of
things I've lived.
A transmedia artistic universe spanning music, essays and moving image. Electronic literature. Games. Sound. Live visuals.
The person behind Mount Media.
Third-year Digital Culture student and your lab assistant.
Knowledge: still compiling. Good at finding things out.
In the lab I help with your ideas, code, research and stuck moments. If I don't know, we'll find out together.
MOUNT MEDIA / SELECTED WORKS
I study how technology enters memory, bodies and public life. Sometimes that becomes a story you can play; sometimes a sound, a shared space or a question for a system.
LATEST WORK / ELECTRONIC LITERATURE
A five-part work of electronic literature about connection, distance, family inheritance and remaining open after a relationship changes. Hold a flower above dark water, then follow its roots through rooms shaped by touch, waiting, light, sound and release.
Read and play What the Roots Keep ↗TALK / CDN EQUINOX 2026 / MACHINE VISION
What happens when a system confidently represents us incorrectly? Language models invented Norwegian queer organisations and crisis contacts. An image generator read music genre as gender in my own face. Then The Detector, a live classifier I built, sorted the room with zero percent unsure, and 17 of 54 people told it that it was wrong.

Play the hike, then come and walk it. A moving DJ set from Sandviken to Fløyen, with performances along the route.
Play Trail Mix ↗AUDIOVISUAL SYSTEM / SALT OSLO
The Oslo continuation of Bergtatt: a lesbian sauna ritual built around heat, water, breath, condensation and chosen family.

PLACE / SOUND / LIVE VISUALS
Bergen’s landscape, nightlife and queer folklore become a sound-reactive visual environment. A way of translating lived surroundings into colour, movement and atmosphere.

ELECTRONIC LITERATURE / MEMORY / DIGITAL IDENTITY
Personal experience, memory and being misread by systems become an interactive narrative. The reader encounters the question through choices.

FOUNDER
Queer Fashion
of Scandinavia
A digital platform for queer representation. I founded and ran it, working with consent-based documentation of people and their self-expression.
Representation / Publishing / Consent
Before I studied digital culture, I was already working with its questions: who appears in the feed, how we frame each other, and what it means to be visible as a queer person. I bring that experience into my research and the works I make.
