Finally, Sound experiment 2010. As promised Sound Experiment 2010 is here. Last year we crashed a certain performing arts center with our improvised musical act, this year… Where will we perform? Hmmm… *rubs chin of grinning face.
Sound Experiment is an annual music experiment where we explore creative ways of bringing music into public spaces usually where it is least expected. The greatest challenge to the experiment is teaching the participants, all volunteers, the music piece and how to perform in an afternoon and perform it later on the same day!
We stood at a corner in orchard road and stared at a Large outdoor display. The whole thing lasted for more than 20 minutes. There was a tv crew hidden somewhere on the other side of the road filming us for a local tv programme.
Agents queued up at a random restroom at a mall. For 15 minutes they stood waiting as people walked by confused and puzzled. Whenever they were asked what they were queueing for, “We’re queueing to watch a movie, it starts at 3.25″.
“Rushed down to find them during my lunch break. Was quite an interesting concept to start with, and there were actually people who were asking us what we were queuing for. The thing was, we were actually Q-ing utside the toilet.” – Agent Calvin
In the first part you’d see Agent Reggie going around asking people to take pictures with him. It was pretty interesting to see how people willingly entertain such request from strangers.
Everything was planned. The girl had an empty envelope in her other back pocket. The signed card was inserted into the box prior to the trick. The ‘Mat’ is one of us.
