Live Performance and Installation
13 Volts and 1 Carrot: [somewhere between electricity and the eatable]

I like to think about "13 Volts and 1 Carrot" as a field to be examined in terms of movements, gestures, tempo, loundness and silence, between the electric field and the organic (the eatable). The sounds I use are also based on this notion, from natural sounds to a synthesized sound. I also like to think of the performance as a dance, sound performance, a moving sculpture and a narrative. In "13 Volts and 1 Carrot" I use my gestural interface Kinesis.

GO Karamazov:
A sonic performance featuring the fifth and unknown Karamazov Brother.
The performer is using a wearable interface connected to the computer, which allows her to move freely among the audience. Lights that correspond to movements and sounds are part of the costume, including a beard, glamour eyelashes and a book.
audioTagger
audioTagger was started in January 2006 as a way to explore ubiquitous computing for audio applications in public spaces. audioTagger is a mobile-phone-sound-art-geocoding-in-urban-space project, and can be defined as “wireless phonography” (mobile sound writing). audioTagger is an exploration of urban space, the capture sounds using mobile technology, and tagging the sounds using Google maps.
Eva Sjuve explores the intersection of sound, performance and mobile media by building physical interfaces to enhance live digital music and implementing musical compositions for mobile devices. Since 1985, she has exhibited in Europe, Asia, the USA, South America and Australia. In 1995 she received the Jury's Award at the New York Exposition of Short Film & Video for her experimental video, "Mytholygi," exploring the perception of time and space through cultural spheres. In 2000, she received an Award of Recognition at CYNETart 2000, Dresden, Germany, for the audio composition "Astro Turf," exploring auditory spaces. She holds a Master's degree in Interactive Telecommunications, New York University, and a Master of Arts in Art Theory, Lund University, Sweden. She also studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York, and at the Centre de Creation Musicale de Iannis Xenakis (CCMIX) in Paris.
