This is so bad ass! I wish I could be there! Ivar and Inge on the same stage! If y’all haven’t heard of Inge Rypdal, you have to check out Emmerhoff & The Melancholy Babies, great stuff. Inge also played lead guitar on A Darker Place on Below the Lights.

Dansmachine4 in progress – Ivar Bjornson and VJ Stalker
Shortly prior to Roadburn 2009, VJ Stalker (who provided the visuals for Wolves in the Throne Room at Roadburn 2009) presented a new work at this year’s STRP Festival in Eindhoven. Dansmachine4 is an interactive art installation that explores dance movements and body language. The installation is manipulated by those viewing and experiencing it. Their movements are projected in elegent projected images, given within the choreography specially made for Dansmachine4, written by Ed Wubbe and performed by Brandon O’Dell, both Scapino Ballet Rotterdam. The original soundtrack is written and performed by Ivar Bjornson of the Norwegian progressive metal band Enslaved. Dansmachine4 is an ode to the beauty of the moving body, at once powerfull and fragile.
VJ Stalker will now present his work at Holland’s renowned November Music, including the first ever live performances of the soundtrack by the Ivar Bjornson Trio.
