So the festival is around the corner, are you ready?
The festival will take place on 22-24th November, at The Annexe Gallery for the fourth time, where it has witnessed the birth of KLEX in 2010. We love this little nostalgic sentiment :)
The year we’ll have guest programmes from the Festival International Signes de Nuit, curated by Dieter Wieczorek (Germany/France); from the Filmvirus, curated by Wiwat Lertwiwatwongsa (Thailand); and from “Media-Kitchen”, a collaborative effort between Charmaine Toh (Singapore) and Okamura Keiko (Japan). All curators and/or representatives of the guest programmes will attend the festival in person. Come meet the guests!
We also have an exciting line-up for audio-visual performances. Participating performers include Andra McCartney (Canada), Chong Keat Aun, Yii Kah Hoe, Goh Lee Kwang, Wong Eng Leong, Game of Patience with Brian O’Reilly (USA), Darren Moore (Australia) & Yong Yandsen, Black Zenith, Koji Asano (Japan) & HKPT with Azzief Khaliq, Sudarshan & Christophe “Stalk” Turchi, and Jean-David Caillouët & Florian Antier (France). A truly international feast of sound & image!
Finally, a couple of artist workshops will be conducted, including exclusive film workshops by Dieter Wieczorek for students at New Era University College and Multimedia University. Canadian sound artist & scholar, Professor Andra McCartney, will conduct a soundwalk workshop that is open to the public. This soundwalk will include a group walk, reflective discussions, and individual or small group walks throughout the historical Jalan Sultan area. Interested individuals can email us to register by 15 November 2013 by 12pm: [email protected]
