REVIEWS Astrid Kvalbein, VG 6. jan 2004 “...den intense koncentration i et helt forbløffende detailforløb i et af afsnittene.

Buy from MERE	Knut Olaf Sunde – BUT A MACHINE (2008) 1. But a machine that was powerful enough to accelerate particles to the grand unification energy would have to be as big as the solar system – and would be unlikely to be funded in the present economic climate. 2. What if you never speed? 3. Verewigter Duft ist paradox 4. Otherwise the belief is that a kind of lense at the size of Turkey would make a spacecraft accelerate to half the speed of light in only two years. – But this prospect would also lie some time into the future. 5. Molladalen 160707 – Storevatnet ------- Things are connected. This is the obvious but essential truth that underpins all of Knut Olaf Sunde’s activities. Regardless of whether he composes music for a particular geological formation in the mountains, or concentrating on his other great passion, infrastructure and transportation planning, the activity ultimately revolves around the same theme; thinking thoroughly about how things are interconnected, from overarching levels down to the most minute details. – Bendik Hagerup -------- Released 3. Dec 2008 on MERE REVIEWS Astrid Kvalbein, Aftenposten 19.01.09
