Teckna med ljudvågor: Fredrik Segerfalk

Create patterns using an analog synth together with Fredrik Segerfalk!
Fredrik Segerfalk from Helsingborg grew up in a home filled with jazz and classical music, playing the church organ for seven years while also participating in local blues jams and creating commercial music for games. He was a pioneer in 8-bit music for home computers and was the only Swede to produce music for Commodore 64 games in the late 80s and early 90s.

Segerfalk has a strong passion for synthesizers and founded Analog Sweden, a vintage synth studio, in 2007, which has worked with artists like Joakim Thåström and Anthony Hamilton. In 2014, he crowdfunded the album Moments Lost, a tribute to the Blade Runner soundtrack, recorded using the same techniques Vangelis used in 1982.

In 2019, Segerfalk and Carl-Johan Fogelklou from Mando Diao formed the duo Falk & Klou, successfully recreating groove sounds from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. They have built a dedicated following and recently created the title track for an 80s-inspired Japanese anime game. Segerfalk’s commercial clients include Volvo, Acne, and Cartoon Network.

Porträttautomat: Ingrid Skåre

Like a photo booth but with an illustrator instead of a camera! Ingrid Skåre sits ready in the museum’s “portrait machine” to draw your portrait.

Ingrid Skåre is a Malmö-based illustrator who primarily works digitally, but who also has a great interest in line drawing and likes to use textured brushes and unusual colors. Ingrid Skåre has illustrated several children’s books and likes to explore subjects such as portraits, literature, myths and nature. Born and raised in Brazil, she studied graphic design at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), which strongly influenced her visual style.

Performace: Fredrik Strid – Mellan aftonfalk och ärtsångare

It is the last weekend for Fredrik Strid’s major exhibition Making Nature. The starting point for the exhibition  is the process-based sculpture project All Birds of Sweden (Alla fåglar i Sverige). At Culture Night, Fredrik Strid is on site and makes a performance in four parts. Fredrik Strid reads from one of his sources of inspiration for the installation All Birds of Sweden: Erik Rosenberg’s classic field handbook Fåglar i Sverige (1953). It describes our country’s bird species in text “The way you encounter them in the landscape – their characters and habits, their sounds and song.”

The performance Mellan aftonfalk och ärtsångare moves Rosenberg’s condensed descriptions of birds into memory images, flashes and shadows. Memory images that create a dialogue to the sculpture installation. In the project, Strid wants to capture and highlight his artistic process at an early stage, especially how the mechanisms behind inspiration from another material work for him.

The installation All birds of Sweden can be seen as a large sculptural monument with weight. But the work also has a lightness, something temporary and fleeting that manifests itself in the sensitivity of the white material, in the wicks of light and in the swaying of the shelving system. This is what Fredrik Strid says about the work:

“A large part of the artistic work with All Birds of Sweden has been to keep a side-on perspective. You never seem to fully understand the essence of the birds, something indescribable always remains. The attempts to describe the birds are many and they are ongoing, my project with the birds joins the ranks of these attempts.”

17.00 Aftonfalk till grönsiska

The performance’s takes place in Fredrik Strid’s exhibition Making Nature. Each part lasts 15–25 min.

Light installation: Utskottet 

Utskottet is a design studio and production workshop based in Malmö.  Since the start in 2015, they create projects that combine art and technology in public environments. Utskottet’s work has been shown at a large number of light festivals, but above all, you meet them in urban environments. Their passion is to combine shapes and colors with sensors and electronics, turning cities into playgrounds. At our big party, they have been given free rein in the museum’s sculpture park.

Art Stories: The Art of Creating a Party

What is needed to make a really good party? This tour is part of our concept Art Stories (Konstberättelser), where our art educators provide biographical, thematic and historical insights into and perspectives on the museum’s art. As the museum turns 90 years, we invite you to a guided tour with a focus on party and celebration. Join us and look at art work that together create the perfect recipe for a wonderful party.

The tour is in Swedish.

DJ: Sakena Ali

SAKENA ALI has been playing records since 2002. She was Denmark’s first club and rave reviewer, so it was with great caution that she threw herself into DJing. She knows that sharing music with the outside world is hard work. Her musical style is very, very broad, as unlike many DJs, she mixes tonally and not according to BPM. Her sets are more moods than fixed genres, but expect a music selection from Sade to an unknown techno musician from Detroit or Aarhus. Whether it’s a rave at Culture-Box or an art exhibition at Copenhagen Contemporary, her mixing is a dialogue with the audience. 

DJ: Tia Turn Tables

Tia Turn Tables is a vinyl collector, sound curator and renowned DJ, spanning over 10 years of performing in cities like London, Paris, Amman and Beijing, resulting in a unique signature sound which has drawn the attention of some of the world’s biggest brands, companies and organizations such as MTV, Tour de France and United Nations to name a few. A resident DJ in Copenhagen, Tia has opened for artists like Diana Ross, Herbie Hancock and Little Simz, and is a trusted DJ when it comes to setting the right mood. She delivers an individually curated musical journey and aims to create both sonic curiosity and familiarity with music that makes you move. Tia is also the Founder of Future Female Sounds, a DJ community of over 14.000 female & non-binary DJs.

DJ: Emotional Ty

Emotional Ty, a multi-faceted DJ and producer, now based and active in Copenhagen, plays everything from funk to warm weird grooves and soul, dreamy disco and electronic in a mixed compote.

The evening’s DJs will fill the restaurant’s outdoor seating area with music throughout the evening.

Kvällens DJs kommer att fylla restaurangens uteservering med musik hela kvällen.
