@finnarne Jeg tar gjerne en invitasjon!

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

10-year anniversary of this great album, the focal point of one of the chapters in my book! How does this musical-volcanic apocalypse reflect the Anthropocene experience, you ask? Well have a read

It's an honour to have my book featured in the amazing @JournalismMusic newsletter (you should all subscribe!). I spoke with @toddlburns about writing and the process of getting it published.

@DollyJorgensen Hi Dolly! I would love to talk to you about my monograph, «Dissonant Landscapes». Published -this week- by Wesleyan UP!

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

Wonderful insights by Andrew Mellor. The music of @annathorvalds and many others discussed in my new book! https://t.co/i8JZfXbw38

No country has reinvented the language of the symphony orchestra on such distinctive and locally relevant terms as Iceland.

As the @IcelandSymphony visits Britain, what has made this chunk of volcanic rock in the North Atlantic such a musical powerhouse? https://t.co/ERFolJ76QH

Jordan's music is incredible. Listen to her weaving vocals into the organ-like resonances of the bowed double bass. https://t.co/tYfcRtIOAH

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

This is my friend Jordan. She came to lunch dressed as the book!

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

This is Merlin. He is helping me promote the book. He is doing great.

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

A complex story of how music and ideas about nature have come together to shape the recent history of a small nation – from “interior” nation building to “exterior” nation branding

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

I am deeply humbled that my book is published in the Music/Culture series from @weslpress. Seriously stellar line-up. Edited by incredible scholars @Sherrie11208672 @JEREMYWALLACH2 and Deborah Wong.

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

I found these stereotypical accounts to be insufficient and damaging. That is why I wrote this book. I wanted to get beneath the ice and figure out what was actually going on.

Look at that beautiful cover designed by Mindy Basinger Hill: https://t.co/7Xb7wWXLiz

@kjellandreas @asgeirhoem @mariussunde Jeg elsker humanistisk serif-stil, også på skjerm. Garamond, Minion etc. Mye på Cambridge University Press blir satt i Palatino, den er fin (men kanskje litt radikal for en avhandling). Jeg endte opp med Arno! https://t.co/a76vYv2tz5

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

My new article on @sigurros and volcanoes is deadly serious. Read how music expresses the turbulence of living with geological forces in the #anthropocene. Open access with @Routledge_MandC #envhum https://t.co/XaYEWlnKQZ

Ok-glacier is no longer a glacier. The first of many Iceland will lose to climate change. I made the text for this plaque with a letter to the future with @DominicBoyer, @CymeneHowe, Rice University and Oddur Sigurðsson geologist, to be placed where the glacier was.

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

@AndriMagnason "Fjallid sem yppti öxlum" by Gisli Pálsson is a great Icelandic take on the relationship between humans and geology!

[Tore Størvold @torstorv]

@sortulv Yes! Folk må skjønne at vi uansett kun har tilgang til intensjoner i form av representasjoner, som alltid er medierte. Dette fordrer sin egen kritikk.
