“SEE THE SOUND, HEAR THE IMAGE”

Venue: SEGi College
Date & Time:  Thursday, 30 May 2013 @ 1-3pm
Curator & Presenter: Kok Siew Wai
Performer: Yong Yandsen

KLEX will present a screening programme consisting videos that explore the possibilities of music, sound and image. Sight and sound shares much vocabulary as an artistic language. It has been a long history that filmmakers and video artists collaborate with musicians to find an integrated expression in colour, rhythm, shapes and tones. This KLEX programme will feature video works from the KLEX archive that display interesting musical-visual relationships and experimentations.

Adding to the sound and sight experience beyond four frames, improvised saxophonist Yong Yandsen will present a short live performance, with the projection of a video by Koji Tambata (Japan), entitled “Whiteness in Darkness”. The footage of this video was shot in 2007 when Tambata first visited Kuala Lumpur and collaborated with Yandsen.
