アートサイエンスエンカウンター: 青葉市子による「Windswept Adan」

シンガーソングライター・青葉市子によるマルチチャンネル・サウンド・インスタレーション「Windswept Adan」が描き出す、夢のような群島世界へと誘います。琉球列島を旅する過程で、架空の映画のためのサウンドトラックとして構想された本作は、音楽と想像力が相互に編み込まれる投機的な世界を提示する。

アートサイエンスエンカウンター: The Space Remembers You by Syafiq Halid with Norhaizad Adam

一夜限りの儀式、音と動きが交差する、生きたセレモニー。このコラボレーション・パフォーマンスでは、サウンド・アーティストのシャフィク・ハリドが、展示「Another World Is Possible」にて自身の14チャンネル・インスタレーションを起動させます。そこにダンス・アーティストのノルハイザド・アダムが加わることで、彼の音響哲学が「動く身体」へと拡張されます。

ArtScience Encounters with Libby Heaney: Qlimate Tongues

「Qlimate Tongues」は、気候とその複雑な関係性、量子技術の影響を探求する、マルチチャネルのサウンドインスタレーションです。本作では、人工知能が生成した人間と非人間のハイブリッドな声や、量子コンピューティングによって生成された催眠的な音が聞こえてきます。先進技術が地球上の生命をどのように形作り、複雑に絡み合っているのかについて、じっくりと考えるきっかけが与えられます。

AeReA — Panzetti/Ticconi (Italy/Germany)

AeReAは、想像力と象徴的な力の対象としての旗、そしてその肉体との繋がりを探求します。

伝統的な記章を剥ぎ取られた銀灰色の旗は、パフォーマーによって振られる幽霊のような姿へと変容し、旗と覆いの境界を曖昧にする。ラテン語の「ara」(祭壇)と「aerea」(空気)に由来するタイトル「AeReA」は、旗が常に原理的に統一と分離の概念を表現するオブジェクトとして機能してきたという二重性を強調するものです。Demetrio Castellucciによるサウンドデザインと共に、「AeReA」は歴史的、そして現代的な権力と帰属観について考察を促します。

Meitei Live

Japanese experimental composer Meitei presents live music sets from his Kofū trilogy, brewing ambient textures, hypnotic rhythms, lo-fi beats and samples from forgotten vinyl that capture the beauty and melancholy of Japan’s disappearing heritage.

Drawing inspiration from the tales of geishas and samurais, the cinematic legacy of Akira Kurosawa and the uncanny writings of Edogawa Ranpo, Kofū intertwines elements that ground the music in Japan’s complex past, while delving into its lingering shadows.

ArtScience Encounters with Mark Chua and Lam Li Shuen: A Lotus Turns To Light

Created by filmmaker and artist duo Mark Chua and Lam Li Shuen, A Lotus Turns To Light is a 10-channel durational sound installation inspired by the cycles of lotus flowers, light and time. Composed as a textural soundscape for the annular space of ArtScience Museum’s Oculus, the work draws on the materiality of the lotus as well as themes of cycles and circularity to invite a flow of memory, feeling and simply being.

the centre trembles by XUE

the center trembles is a durational performance by butoh artist XUE sited within ArtScience Museum’s Oculus, the hollow core of the building’s architecture. The intervention creates a context in which participants can bear witness to rhythms of choice, change, and stillness in relation to how one situates the body, or how the body inadvertently situates itself in space.

Into Still Life by Shaman Tearoom

Multidisciplinary art collective Shaman Tearoom’s performance embarks on a journey into the profound stillness that lies amid the relentless flow of change, exploring the subtle, often imperceptible movements that arise within quiet moments.
