Citizens of Oslo is a two-channel video piece with live saxophone improvisation, audio processing, and backing track. The piece was completed in 2020, though the video material was recorded and edited between 2014 and 2016. The video features long shots of locations in Oslo, Norway; after recording in the summer of 2014, I returned to Oslo and recorded shots on the same locations in January, 2015. The video is processed in Max; I created algorithms that superimpose and delay the video. The recording is from the first live performance of this piece in March, 2020. Citizens of Oslo belongs is part of an ongoing project entitled Homstal that combines saxophone improvisation, processed audio, and Max programming.
