The Sound of Sound: Over-under-in-out-head Projection

This performative talk by Joo Choon Lin and artists Magdalen Chua and Colin Justin Wan explores the overhead projector as a metaphor for consciousness.

The prevailing discussions on the representation of memories and dreams in the trio’s collaborative work often address the question of “mind’s eye” – or the mental faculty of conceiving the imaginary or recollected scenes. Using media technologies of representation, The Sound of Sound builds a shared repository of images, sounds, emotions, and sensations to summon a shared existence.

Audiences are invited to submit drawings, prints, and photographic contributions for inclusion in the performative talk to curatorial@singaporeartmuseum.sg by 3 March 2023.
