Source-derived summary

Only Slime (stylised as ONLY SLIME) is an experimental artist duo based in Oslo consisting of Claudia Cox and Tobi Pfeil. The duo is known for theatrical performances drawing upon internet culture, video games and digital technologies. They characterise their own work as having a "bold, signature aesthetic that blends live motion capture, autotuned opera, electronica, black metal, and game engine worlds." In 2025 they worked with Tani Dibasey.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as norwegian experimental music duo. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q139761394. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2025, 2012 and 2021.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
