Subliminal Lounge #05: Sunergy
Bill Hsu | Nelson Hiu | Dennis Wong | Viola Yip | Rafael Kalil

Subliminal Lounge is an audio & visual series initiated by Re-Records & SECOND to interactively explore and recreate the connection between moving images and sound.

In this 5th edition, we collaborate with press : release again for the film screening of Sunergy, a documentary by Sean Hellfritsch on the collaboration of Suzanne Clani & Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith. In this 2016 collaboration, Clani & Smith shared their creative passion of Buchla synthesiser and the result was the album Sunergy released by RVNG.

Before the film screening, there will be audio & visual live sets presented by Bill Hsu, Nelson Hiu, Dennis Wong, Viola Yip and Fafael Kalil.

Bill Hsu works with electronics and real-time video. His work mostly involves using gestural interfaces to control animation and sound synthesis, and building real-time audio-visual systems that interact with human performers.He is an active artist and scholar from San Francisco Bay area.

Nelson Hiu is one of the most important pioneers of improvising music in Hong Kong. He is an extremely versatile instrumentalist whose works defies music genres and categorisation.

Dennis Wong aka Sin:Ned, is an anti-instrumentalist, event organiser and label operator from Hong Kong.

Viola Yip, a New York based Hong Kong composer and performer, will be presenting her new work “Bulbble”.

Noise to Signal 0.53: Psychosonic Underground


Noise to Signal 0.53: Psychosonic Underground
TORSION | Daniel Maszkowicz | Emma Souharce | Dennis Wong/Gary Myles Duo
聲音是通往無意識的康莊大道⋯

精心巧琢的電子噪聲,以歐陸式及廣東派的姿勢,滲透入意識的層層堆疊,打開一個空間,那裡自我意識,轉化游移向無意識世界⋯

直至我們達至一種集體的夢境狀態,直至,我們在一個安全的距離,遙遙觀照我們自身的黑暗面⋯

請注意!這是一個兩小時沒有中場休息的演化旅程。

Sound as the royal road to the Unconscious…

Infiltrating multiple layers of the conscious mind, finely crafted electronic sound & noise, in the European and Cantonian tradition, open up the realm where the Ego transits into the Unconscious…

Reaching a collective dream state, at which the Shadow can be observed safely in a distance…

Please note that this will be a 2 hours performative journey without intermission.

Dennis Wong / Gary Myles Duo (Post-noise / Electronics)

Noise to Signal 0.52: The Silence Session


Noise to Signal 0.52: The Silence Session
Dickson Dee | Nelson Hiu | Dennis Wong | Sherman | Vinc Kwok


五位藝術家以聲音去探索寂靜。

由五重奏開始,慢慢地將層次遞減,變換成不同的四重奏、三重奏及二重奏,直至最後只剩下寂靜。把寂靜,一層層的打開...

李勁松是香港實驗音樂的擧足輕重人物,一直活躍於不同的聲音藝術項目及舞蹈場境;邱立信是香港即興演奏的重要先驅,音樂個性不拘一格,完全無視各旣定俗成的音樂體裁;Sherman亦是城中最天馬行空,個性最鮮明獨特的結他手之一;Vinc Kwok乃電子樂團tl;dl的核心成員,擅長模組電子合成器,但今次則另闢蹊徑,用上電子原音的手法;黃仲輝亦名Sin:Ned,專研各種無法被定義的演奏技法。

如何畫黑留白,如何用「有」來觀視「無」,以動製靜...

This is a special session to explore silence with sound.

An improvising group of five remarkable Hong Kong artists, Dickson Dee, Nelson Hiu, Dennis Wong, Sherman & Vinc Kwok, will start as a full quartet and slowly evolve into various forms and shapes until there is nothing left but silence…

Please note that this will be a non-stop performance without intermission.
