That same spring, Hodell and Ekelöf travelled to Rome. In his books, Hodell experimented with what he calls elektronismer, while he on stage and in radio in the early 60s worked with text-sound composition. During this period he was also active at Pistolteatern in Stockholm. He also created the book publisher Kerberos.

One of his visual artworks, the piece "220 Volt Buddha", was used as the album cover of Swedish heavy metal band At the Gates' 1993 album With Fear I Kiss the Burning Darkness.
