The Faculty Council recently adopted new guidelines and a new establishment period for the IAC. The new guidelines will apply from the turn of the year and for the next three years. Karin Johansson, Associate Dean for Research, and Hedvig Jalhed, interim director at the IAC, were part of the project group and tell us more about the guidelines here.
“The guidelines have become a bit more extensive compared to the previous ones. The focus was on the IAC as a place to meet. Now the future co-localisation of the faculty and the importance of the intertwining of education and research are emphasised.”
“IAC can address technical issues as well as infrastructural measures we take to prepare for co-location,” says Hedvig Jalhed. We can design and test new scenarios for research on our new campus. The internal survey conducted as part or the process towards the new guidelines revealed a desire for the IAC to be more clearly linked to faculty-led research. Another important point is the role of the IAC as the faculty’s research infrastructure and the link to Lund University’s work with e-infrastructure and storage of research data.”

Nya riktlinjer för Inter Arts Center
Fakultetsstyrelsen har nyligen beslutat om nya riktlinjer och en ny inrättandeperiod för Inter Arts Center, IAC. De nya riktlinjerna gäller från årsskiftet och tre år framåt. Karin Johansson, vicedekan för forskning och Hedvig Jalhed, verksamhetschef för IAC har utgjort projektgruppen och här berättar de mer om riktlinjerna.
Riktlinjerna har blivit lite mer omfattande jämfört med de tidigare. Då låg mycket fokus på IAC som mötesplats. Nu lyfts samlokaliseringen och vikten av sammanflätningen mellan utbildning och forskning fram.
- Det kan handla om både teknikfrågor och infrastrukturella insatser som vi gör för att förbereda oss inför samlokaliseringen, säger Hedvig Jalhed. Vi kan utforma och testa nya scenarier inför vad som behövs för forskningen på vårt nya campus.
Vid den interna utredningen som genomfördes i projektet om de nya riktlinjerna framkom önskemål om att IAC kopplas tydligare till fakultetens egen forskning. En annan viktig fråga gäller IAC:s roll som fakultetens forskningsinfrastruktur och förbindelsen till Lunds universitets arbete med e-infrastruktur och lagring av forskningsdata.
- Jag tror att alla miljöer vid LU behöver arbeta tillsammans kring dessa frågor, säger Karin Johansson. Möjligheterna för lagring, delning och paketering kommer att utvecklas, och vi kan bli mycket bättre på att synliggöra vår forskning.
Med sin tvärdisciplinära inriktning är det självklart för IAC att möjliggöra forskning som spänner över flera fält och det finns till exempel kontakter med Humanistlaboratoriet i Lund som har ett väl inarbetat system för facilitering av användarnas önskemål.
- Den konstnärliga forskningen är inte alltid helt synlig i utbildningen men på IAC finns det möjlighet för studenter att möta forskningen på ett annat sätt, menar Hedvig. Det finns lärare som kommer att hålla workshops här med sina studenter där de får direktkontakt med några av forskningens metoder, verktyg och tankesätt.
- Det blir viktigt att fortsätta det arbete som gjorts på IAC under över ett decennium, säger Karin. Här finns ett bra kapital att jobba vidare med inför samlokaliseringen, där IAC kommer att vara integrerat i verksamheten på vårt samlade campus.
I utvecklingen av en gemensam forskningskultur vid fakulteten blir det viktigt att också fortsätta dra in externa medel. IAC har regelbundet fått in kapital utifrån till projekt, men renodlade forskningsmedel kommer fortsatt att hamna på institutionerna.
- Det känns väldigt roligt att ha de nya riktlinjerna på plats. Det blir utvecklande för personalen och vi hoppas att vi kan fortsätta utveckla IAC i dialog med användarna, säger Hedvig.
- Ja, vi behöver fler idéer och önskemål inifrån fakulteten, tycker Karin. Vi har olika discipliner men möjligheter till samarbeten finns hela tiden.

We are happy to announce the winner of IAC’s first Immersive Call in collaboration with KØS: Alona Rodeh.
The interest in the call has been overwhelming. We received 86 proposals and were not only surprised by the extensive interest in the call, but also impressed by the quality and diversity of the applications. Artists from all over the world applied, established as well as emerging, and a great number of them challenged our conceptions of public space as well as immersive experiences with a wide range of both bold, experimental and highly relevant proposals and artistic practices.
But in the end one artist and project proposal stood out: Alona Rodeh’s ‘Night as other frontier’ or ‘The Well-Being of The Nocturnal City’. It is a multi-layered project putting spotlight on the under-discussed subject of over-illumination in our cities. How does the omnipresence of artificial illumination in the public sphere influence humans and non-humans alike? Through public interventions, guided walks, lecture performances and publishing Alona Rodeh wants to make the world a darker place, and reclaim and investigate darkness anew. The project is based on several years of research and collaborations with local communities and municipalities. We were fascinated by the playful and participatory approach to public immersion and also drawn to the urgency of the theme.

The residency is a collaboration between Malmö Museer, the European Spallation Source (ESS) and the Inter Art Center at Lund University. In a process facilitated by the Inter Art Center and Malmö Museer, artists and researchers will now relate the work of the ESS and its impact on the region and the world, and show how ESS will communicate its complex research. At the end of the residency this autumn, a forum is planned to present the results and experiences.
According to the jury, the six selected artists have presented clear and relevant themes with a high artistic value. They also ask relevant questions about the present and the future, have a wealth of experience and an understanding of collaboration and interdisciplinary approaches. Furthermore, they can appropriate data and knowledge in new ways.
The approved artists are Ashley Middleton, Axel Straschnoy, Christine Kettaneh, Ish Shehrawat, Jeannette Ginslöv & Keith Lim and Tim Bishop.

We are hopeful that 2021 – in due time – will be very different from and better than the pandemic year we put behind us. But unfortunately, the virus is still very much alive, so we need to withhold and adapt our guidelines in order to secure a safe working environment at IAC for both our staff, researchers and artists.
IAC is still open for artistic research and experimentation, but things are far from how they used to be. We have no public events and no sharing sessions or other gatherings in house. We continuously adapt the amount of people that we can house, both in total and in specific rooms, which means that we have much lower activity than normal. In January we prioritize researchers, doctoral students, and artists that we have long term collaborations with and will on the contrary minimise the number of new users. We will postpone projects that include larger groups of people, and projects that require travelling more than two hours to get here.

At deadline October 1st, Make Sound received many interesting applications for a residency at IAC. One project has now been chosen. Congratulations to NJYD (Marie Sønderskov, Mikkel Egelund, Jonas Weitling and Anja Nedremo), and composer James Black.
NJYD consists of four classically trained soloists. The quartet specializes in engaging in creative collaborations with composers and works purposefully to equate the body with musical instruments in significant contemporary works. Together with James Black, NJYD will explore the body’s limited possibilities and the beauty of the imperfect. James Black stages absurdities in a mix of instrumental music and performance that creates stir and provokes the audience to reflect.
More information will follow soon…

We are looking forward to dive into the artistic process with selected artist and musician OONA LIBENS. In her project ‘Spider Threads’ Oona will investigate the relationship between binary technology and weaving, as part of a bigger question about how the digital technology could be defined by curiosity and inclusivity instead of commerce and surveillance.

While an increasing number of countries are shutting down around us, Sweden tries to postpone the shutdown and keep the wheels of society spinning a bit longer. But things are far from normal around here. At IAC most studios are empty right now and all public events have been cancelled until summer. This sadly means that there will be no Intonal Festival, no Acousmatic Lab residencies, courses or concerts, no weekly breakfast gatherings and no international residents just to mention a few of the changes.
But IAC is open for individual work in our studios and project spaces for students, teachers and PhDs at the Faculty of Fine and Performing Art until new directives are formulated from the university. At the moment we can’t offer any hands-on supervision or technical assistance in the same manner as we normally do. If you want to work here, contact us first in order to plan and prepare the work in a way that minimize the risks of spreading the virus.
This unfortunately also means that we from March 23rd and onwards can’t facilitate or house any residencies or collaborations with artists, researchers and partners not directly associated with Lund University. This is a measure taken to protect both our own staff, colleagues and you.
We hope for your understanding in these tough times.
For the latest updates please follow our website and Lund University.
Stay safe and take care!

At the last deadline October 1st, Make Sound received 13 interesting applications for a residency in 2020. Two projects have now been chosen. Congratulations to Julie Østengaard who is going to work with her project ‘Con/current’ during her residency and to Lola Ajima, Ingvild Skandsen and Lasse Munk with the project ‘Deus Ex Machina – Interpretation on the acousmonium’.
Julie Østengaard
Con/current
In the current sound-based work, a kinetic sound sculpture is creating acoustic sound through movement of its own material derived from motorized movements and disorganized movements originated in the acoustic material itself. It interacts with electronic sound in a live performance and the work is thus both an installation and a performance. The electronic soundscape is created from real-time samplings of the installation and spatialized through speakers placed around the room. Con/current is an interchanging sound piece that blends virtual and physical sound in a virtual and physical space. Existing both as physical sound and figure in a physical space and at the same time as virtual sound in a virtual space, the work seeks to create a relation to modern humanity, living in coexistence with its physical and digital self.
Lola Ajima, Ingvild Skandsen & Lasse Munk
Deus Ex Machina – Interpretation on the acousmonium
To perform on an acousmonium is a powerful and very engaging way to spatialise acousmatic compositions live. But it is still a niche, mainly due to the simple fact that an acousmonium is rare. It takes a lot of time, planning and equipment to install it, as well as it takes time to master it to perform live. Lola Ajima, Ingvild Skandsen and Lasse Munk all co-founders of the soundartist collective Deus Ex Machina, all work in different ways on the acousmonium. This is why they have been invited to do a concert on the acousmonium at the Sound Spaces Festival, April 2020. For the residency, they make use of the opportunity to have the acousmonium for a longer period, to do research in spatialisation on their respective styles of acousmatic music, preparing for the concert. They will benefit to have time to share experiences with each other and find inspiration in their differences. During the residency they will do hands-on workshops on the acousmonium for people interested in trying out this particular way of performing acousmatic music.

After gathering a number of leading sound art and experimental music residencies in December at IAC, the ideas of forming a new network was discussed and set in motion. Before the summer we received network funding from Nordic Culture Point and had our first network meeting in Oslo. The founding members of the network are NOTAM in Oslo, EMS (Elektronmusikstudion) in Stockholm, VICC (Visby International Centre for Composers) at Gotland, Danish Composer’s Society in Denmark and Inkonst and IAC in Malmö. One of the main aims in the beginning is exchange of technical staff and competences. More as the network start to take form with the first educational courses and institutional visits in Stockholm and Oslo during the fall.

Who now, somewhere, upside down
Kevin Malcolm
Location: White room
This solo exhibition by Kevin Malcolm presents works from an ongoing artistic research project initiated in 2014.

Ana Rebordão, Kent Olofsson (sound)
Location: Black Room
The three-channel video “Parts” resembles a medieval triptych, where some figures are selected and monitored.
The women of the images exist amongst two spoken languages, English and French, and two sources of sound. On one hand, disturbing compositions, on the other, a clear voice over.

The group exhibition „On the Thresholds of Knowledge“ at Kungshuset in Lund reflects on the notion of knowledge: What is knowledge? How and where is it produced and used? And who is it for?
The works are conceived by international and local artists including the Indian art collective Raqs Media Collective who produces an entirely new site-specific work stretching across several rooms in the Kungshuset and functioning like the exhibition’s spine. Some of the projects are interactive and require the visitor’s participation: The French artist Myriam Lefkowitz brings the visitor on a tour around the house and in the city or on an inner journey surrounded by darkness. In Heman Chong‘s work knowledge is transferred in a meeting with a performer.
If you like to learn more about the participating artists, please open the following Portfolio!

The point of departure for this exhibition is Kungshuset, the King’s House, one of Lund’s oldest buildings and the home of the university during several centuries. With works by international and local artists the exhibition reflects on the notion of knowledge: What is knowledge? How and where is it produced and used? And who is it for? The Indian art collective Raqs Media Collective produces a site-specific work stretching across several rooms in the building and functioning like the exhibition’s spine. The university is a vital part of Lund, but it is also a closed institution. In this exhibition, the entire King’s House is opened to the public for the first time ever and visitors are given the opportunity to wander freely on all floors and discover both the building and the art.

The two first Make Sound residents in 2017
The composers Christian Skjødt and Kaj Duncan David are the first two to have been awarded a residency at Inter Arts Center. Here is what they will each use their stay for:
Christian Skjødt (f. 1980)
Composer and sound artist Christian Skjødt has been awarded a two month stay at IAC in spring 2017, where he will have the opportunity to develop his artistic work regarding phenomenological studies manifested as sound installations/works. He will do so on the basis of the Russian scientist Kéon Theremin’s (1986-1993) inventions ranging from music instruments and monitoring technology.
“I believe that the combination of experimental art and artistic research that IAC offers is obvious in connection with my project and my work in general.
For instance, I specifically hope to draw on researchers and competencies in the human perception, low- power electronics and interface design. Further, I see that having both studio, recording studio, and various viewing platforms available as a unique opportunity to try out ideas and to develop”.
Christian Skjødt’s research will result in an installation as part of Intonal Festival in Malmø April 27th-30th 2017.
Kaj Duncan David (f. 1988)
Kaj Duncan David has been awarded a residency at IAC in late summer 2017 for developing a work for electronic wind quartet and light, commissioned by the Swiss saxophone quartet, ARTE Quartett.
”In this work, I will convert raw MIDI data directly from the instruments (AKAI EWIs) to light via DMX. This means I can explore an interactive relationship between musician, sound and light that is more nuanced and complex than in my previous pieces.
In order to develop such a connection between sound and light, as well as learn about the use of different light equipment in order to develop the idea of a light sculpture, the technical assistance and the resources that IAC offers, is essential”
Critical representation & VR is a Nordic collaborative project led by author-directors Emma Bexell & Stefan Stanisic of Swedish company of performing arts Bombina Bombast. The main part of the work will take place in Malmö and Inter Arts Center but activities also occur in Amsterdam, Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen and Oslo.

The main part of the work will take place in Malmö and Inter Arts Center but activities also occur in Amsterdam, Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen and Oslo.
Bexell and Stanisic will work at IAC with a combination of criticism and practice in a series of workshops and productions where they, together with invited artists and HCI researchers, explore the performative uses of virtual reality technologies and the radical potential of VR to present perspectives and narratives where audience agency and embodiment are unconditional parts of the storytelling. The aim is to develop methods for the artistic process with focus on diversity in representation, and explore audience experience.
As part of a new residency program for contemporary music, sound art and experimental club culture in collaboration with Inkonst, the artist Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe will work in IAC’s studio on the project Phantom Feed, focusing on the exploration of absence in narration.

Lisa Busby and Gabriel Bohm Calles are undertaking the first stage of an investigation to explore unprofessional frameworks, unheard sounds, untrained bodies; uncovering value in prosaic and overlooked gesture.
Lisa Busby and Gabriel Bohm Calles are undertaking the first stage of an investigation to explore unprofessional frameworks, unheard sounds, untrained bodies; uncovering value in prosaic and overlooked gesture. Informed by their shared research interests in empowerment through the everyday and ‘availablism’, traditional club or gig experiences are deconstructed, and personal and sociocultural conventions and tropes interrogated and exploded. By creating a shared field of activity where their roles and actions become dissolved, transcending their respective fields of sound and movement, they are working towards understating how to ‘remix’ their own practices and reflecting on how this could inform our conception and enactment of research.
Inter Arts Center and the Danish Composers’ Society offer a residency programme at IAC for Danish composers who work with experimental music and sound art. This is an open residency where artists can develop their own projects with sound as the focal point, based at the IAC facilities.
Applicants may apply for stays of between 2 weeks and 2 months, and there is a deadline twice a year. In addition to access to the IAC’s facilities and technical assistance, the residency includes travel support, lodging in Malmo and a production budget estimated according to needs and the length of stay. We expect to be able to offer 2-4 residencies per year.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Composers and sound artists residing in Denmark or with a significant connection to the Danish music scene can apply for a stay at IAC.
Composers who wish to apply must submit an application describing the project they want to work with during the residency. In addition to a description of the project with an elaboration about how exactly the facilities that IAC offers will be made use of and involved in the work and during the stay, the application must include a motivation for applying for a residency at IAC.
It should also specify whether the application is for a shorter stay (2-4 weeks) or a longer stay (5-8 weeks).
The applicant must provide a resume, 2-3 examples of existing works as well as an estimated budget for the project.
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA
The assessment will emphasize on the extent to which the individual project idea and the desired residency can help to expand and develop new fields of music as well as sound-based art. We value all qualifying attempts to exceed and challenge the boundaries of what we normally associate with contemporary music and sound art.
We only accept applications by email.
DEADLINE
Applications can be submitted twice a year with deadline: 1 February and 1 September.
Applications should be sent to:
Christian Skovbjerg Jensen.
