exhibitions. The multi slide presentation Riot which was shown in Berlin in 1988 wascreated in collaboration with the graphic
artist Leif Elggren. Tankred and Elggren work together on a regular basis as a performance duo,calling themselves The Sons of
God. Tankred aims to strengthen the ties between music, movement and image and also to avoid conventional forms of
expression. He often uses a "concresizer", a kind of instrument whichhe has constructed himself which controls different types
of soundsculptures from a keyboard. His works have been exhibited in differetplayces in Sweden and Europe. Tankred has been
the president of the Fylkingen society between 1993-98. « hide |
