FORNEUS TECHNIKA / ABOUT

I know the stage from every angle.

From my first events and years in radio to international tours, live sound engineering, technical production coordination and working alongside artists.

01 / THE BEGINNING

My journey didn’t begin behind a mixing desk.

I’ve worked in live events since 2009. My first experience came from supporting event productions at Liw Castle, where I helped with backstage logistics, artist liaison and technical operations. Each project brought a new perspective on what it takes to make an event happen.

I also came to know the stage from the performer’s side, as a musician and vocalist. While studying, I worked with Radio SAR at Gdańsk University of Technology and began gaining hands-on experience with event equipment rental companies. From there, I moved into working with touring bands.

On 2 May 2019, my passion for music, technology and live production became Forneus Technika.

The most valuable lessons came from seeing the same event through different eyes.

As a performer, a technician, a sound engineer and the person responsible for keeping things moving on stage.

BEHIND THE DESK / FOH

Sound is part of the story, too.

Working behind the mixing desk taught me to listen beyond the music — to the people, the performers and everything happening on stage. I bring that awareness to every production I work on.

03 / MY APPROACH

How I work.

Preparation

I want to understand the artists’ requirements and technical constraints before load-in begins. Thorough technical advancing prevents problems before they reach the stage.

Communication

I keep communication clear between production teams, technical crews and artists. Good information flow matters just as much as good equipment.

Practical solutions

When plans change, I focus on solutions that actually work within the realities of a live event.

04 / BEYOND THE STAGE

There’s more to my work than concerts.

My experience also extends to audiovisual productions, including music videos and corporate presentation films.

Through Forneus, I have also supported television productions with sourcing set and scenic elements.
