This summer two newly developed outdoor sound compositions are presented at Saemien Sijte both with the reindeers clicking in focus, a unique sound created with their hinter legs.

One clicking composition combined with oral communication is still presented as the 16 channels sound installation in a big circle witht the sound coming from the underground. The sounds can also be felt as vibrations under ones shoe sole. This whole installation works off grid due to a smaller power station a wind turbine and a solar panel to supply all technical equipment.

The second piece is presented in a “lavvo/tipi” as an 8 channels Minuet composed from isolated clicks which when each individual click appears unique in both texture and tones when analyzed in the editing process.
