CREATIVE TECH SG COMMUNITY

In PechaKucha @ Arts x Tech Lab–Extended Realities & Worlding Machines, Debbie Ding @dbbd.sg invites speakers Daryl Ho @stucco_on_the_wall , Dexter Fang dexthefang and Koh Kai Ting @kaitkkt to enlighten us for the evening. Read on for a quick summary on the presentations. Virtual Reality: A Programme for Care—Crossing between theory and speculative design, Daryl engages with the question: What is the use of space in virtual space? Decoding the World: An Experience Designer's Perspective—A journey through the evolution of world-building, showing how mediums change but the mission to make information deeply relatable remains the same. Umang-Umang—By merging XR with ecological mythmaking, this presentation asks how immersive technologies can host non-human ways of seeing and open toward a more relational understanding of the world. 🗓 14 May, Thursday, 7.30pm–9.00pm 📍 Aliwal Arts Centre, Music Studio Limited seating so register for your slot through the link in bio 🔗 Organised by @tusitala.sg With support from @creativetechsg Guest programmed by Debbie Ding @dbbd.sg This programme is supported by the National Arts Council’s Arts x Tech Lab initiative @nacsingapore #creativetech #singapore #art #tech #events

Read on for a short summary of each speaker’s presentation. Material Memories–Within this presentation, Si Xuan shares about her foray into the quality of memory in humans and non-humans, what that might look like and how it shapes our worldview. Slow Motion: Moving with the Everyday–Slow Motion: Moving with the Everyday looks into how artistic practice can attune to the rhythms of everyday life through slow processes, material engagement, and attentive movement. Multi-sensory Interfaces for XR–This talk presents research on mobile and wearable multisensory interfaces that deliver physical sensations, particularly haptic feedback, to enhance interaction, perception, and user experience across integrated physical and virtual environments. Masak Masak: Experiments in Moving Objects and Performing Machines–The element of play and experimentation in the speaker’s practice of making kinetic objects, from where he started, to where he wants and hopes to take it.

Ever considered the invisible forces that shape how we live everyday? Guest programmer, Irmandy Wicaksono @irmandyw brings together artists and technologists to examine how gravitational, mechanical, and environmental forces enact upon objects, environments, and collective experience in 𝘒𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘴: 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘴 & 𝘍𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬. Through practices grounded in haptics and kinetics, the speakers explore movement not as something merely observed, but as something inhabited and completed through human experience. 🗓 27 March, Friday, 7.30pm-9.00pm 📍 Arts x Tech Lab, Aliwal Arts Centre #02-05 Registration is from 7.00pm-7.30pm. Light refreshments will be provided before the session. Please come on time. Late entry will be managed at suitable intervals between speakers.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for PechaKucha@ArtsxTech Lab: 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨. Last week, guest programmer Andreas Schlegel @sojamo brought together four artists (Aditi Neti @functionditi , Darius Ou @darius_ou , Matthew Lau @matthewlaujh and Victoria Hertel @victoria_hertel ) to share the experiments, prototypes, and odd little systems that shape their creative practices. Artists, designers, engineers, and educators joined us for the night, trading perspectives that sparked new ideas and connections relevant to their own practices. 📸 Swipe through for moments from the evening. Organised by @tusitala.sg Guest programmed by Andreas Schlegel @sojamo This programme is supported by the National Arts Council’s Arts x Tech Lab initiative @nacsingapore See you all at the next event! #singapore #creativetechnology #pechakucha #recap

Five practitioners from art, design, technology, and performance share how they use code as a medium for experimentation and creative expression. In PechaKucha format, Aditi Neti @functionditi , Brian O'Reilly @dendriform , Darius Ou @darius_ou , Matthew Lau @matthewlaujh and Victoria Hertel @victoria_hertel will showcase what it’s really like to go through the creative iterative process, and what it means to experiment beyond the limits of technology. Read on for a quick summary about each presentation! CTRL + R–Ongoing (and hopefully graceful) negotiations with control in her design practice. Modular Cut-ups: Moment Forms & Assemblage–Assemblages of modular elements and concepts. A Case for The Volumetric Press–This research situates 3D printing within the lineage of the printing press, introducing the conceptual and technical frameworks of the volumetric press and its output of 3D printed books. Ambi(latent) Space–Ambi(latent) Space demonstrates how machine learning can be meaningfully integrated into everyday objects, creating intelligent lighting that balances human-centric principles with personal aesthetic preferences. Sensorial Technologies–Sensory slow-tech communication rituals. Organised by @tusitala.sg Guest programmed by Andreas Schlegel @sojamo This programme is supported by the National Arts Council’s Arts x Tech Lab initiative @nacsingapore Join us to make new connections and rethink what’s possible when art meets code 🔗

How does code become a language for creativity? This November, @tusitala.sg brings PechaKucha to the Arts x Tech Lab. Curated by Andreas Schlegel @sojamo , 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 explores how our speakers thrive on experimentation, circuitry, and the accidents that push ideas forward. This event is held at Arts x Tech Lab, NAC’s newest initiative to create a dedicated collaborative space for emerging and mid-career artists and practitioners working in the intersection of arts and technology. An open and welcoming space located within Aliwal Arts Centre, the Lab aims to be a platform for exchanges that drive innovation and new artistic endeavours, bridging conversations on arts and technology to develop the Singapore’s arts scene. Other than Creative Coding, look forward to other programmes on XR, Immersive Sound, Kinetics and Projection Mapping at the Labl. 🗓 21 November, Friday, 7pm-9pm 📍 Arts x Tech Lab, Aliwal Arts Centre #02-05 Registration is from 7pm-7.30pm. Light refreshments will be provided.

Bring Your Own X (BYOX) is an exhibition responding to reassembly and disassembly as part of Singapore Design Week. It is part of the “Reinvention” programme presented by Singapore Science Park, and curated by OuterEdit. Inspired by Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB) popularised by Anne De Vries and Rafael Rozendaal, BYOX envisions a dynamic exhibition shaped by interaction between visitors and the work. Designers and technologists are invited to submit plug-and-play, interactive installations using microcontrollers, sensors, artificial intelligence, robotics, mixed reality and digital interfaces. Opens 13 - 21 Sept @ the Lobby of 1, Geneo Singapore Science Park Upcoming: Lunchtime curator’s tour on 17 and 19 Sep (Wed and Fri), 1:00PM–1:45 PM: Yeo Ker Siang @yanghexiangwill introduce the concept behind BYOX, explain what “creative technology” means in this context, and guide you through the interactive works. Come ready to explore, reflect, and play!
