MPO @Masjid Jamek

Hello everyone!! Yesterday on 9 August 2016 (Tue), we had performed Mobile Phone Orchestra (MPO) at Masjid Jamek LRT Station. 

For new readers or you forgot what is MPO, Mobile Phone Orchestra is an interactive performance created in 2011; as its name suggests, this piece features mobile phones and music. Mobile Phone Orchestra uses music tracks and lights to create different work each time it is staged. The tracks, recordings of sounds collected from various sites around the world, are paired with corresponding lights (this time colour cupboard) of different colours. These lights or colour cupboard become and function as signs, symbols for the ‘orchestra members’ to follow and play along; their ‘music score’, if you will.

Here are some photos on the day itself during the performance of MPO. Enjoy.

Sonic Poem

Space Toccata is introducing Paul Timings with his interactive sound installation, 'Sonic Poem', with collaboration of Kok Siew-Wai's interpretations of the alphabet with poetic expression.

According to Paul;

"The piece is based on the premise that we each interpret phonetic concepts relating to languages differently, whether it be through personal experiences and abilities, or our social and learning environments. The idea that a multi-modal mandate can extend beyond the language itself and suggest an additional concept of communication is fundamental to what I would like you to be able to explore, or even experience from the piece."

Come and join us this coming 7th August (Sun), 3pm for the launching and it will be open for a week from 11am-5pm till 13th August (Sat). 

Tune in as we will keep updating you with exciting events.
