One Man Nation | Sound Piece
Sound Piece is a short film produced by Vincent Moon and Marc Chia that takes place in Singapore. What I found fascinating about this movie is that the ambient noises that would have normally been subservient is of an equal status with the visual, perhaps it would be more fitting to call this an audiovisual film.
Catch One Man Nation’s live performance at the Chapel of Singapore Art Museum on the 5th of April.
The opening of this exhibition is at 1900hrs on Thursday the 05th of April at the chapel of the Singapore Art Museum, this is followed by a presentation by The Unifiedfield at 1920hrs and a performance by One Man Nation at 2000hrs.

Forms (process)
Forms is an ongoing collaboration between visuals artists Memo Akten and Quayola, a series of studies on human motion, and its reverberations through space and time. It is inspired by the works of Eadweard Muybridge, Harold Edgerton, Étienne-Jules Marey as well as similarly inspired modernist cubist works such as Marcel Duchamp’s “Nude Descending a Staircase No.2?. Rather than focusing on observable trajectories, it explores techniques of extrapolation to sculpt abstract forms, visualizing unseen relationships – power, balance, grace and conflict – between the body and its surroundings.

Ryoichi Kurokawa – Ground
Ryoichi Kurokawa is one of my favorite audiovisual artist and what better way to start this blog with his new work Ground. Ground is an audiovisual installation, not much is mentioned (actually nothing) in his website but it is apparently centered on war and destruction.
