As usual, a series of activities was organised from 7:30pm to 2am. Yes! Your eyes are not playing tricks on you. The museum was opened till as late as 2AM. To my surprise too, there were people who stay that late (I'm one of them) hee!& did I mentioned about FREE admission? Maybe that's why.
The most impressive art was of cos the highlights of the night - Lyrical Perspective. It was a visual projection that relies on the public's voice to distort the SAM façade. Through the interaction of light, sound and architecture in the installations, 1024 Architecture (the installers) aims to cross the boundaries between real and virtual space.
Look at the projection, it looks like a face. As the public speaks, the face will do some expression based on the sound waves. So you can sing, shout, scream to see the respond.
Next was Curiositiés, architect transformed SAM's courtyard into a dwelling for luminous jellyfish, creating an imaginary realm.
I personally find this too eerie.
I'm only going to highlight the 2 most impressive installation of the event because there were too many of activities going on. There was also flea market for those who don't want to act arty farty.
other installations such as this. The wall was filled up with those solar figurine. They moved from left to right, seems like greeting your arrival at the entrance of the museum.
The wall was lined with train tracks to lead you to the next installation. Creative I must say.
This was a featured to talk about environmental friendly, reducing on carbon footprints. All the cars were flashing colorful lights along the street.
The nigh was ended with a nice chill at nOvous, a cafe at the National Museum. We had late breakfast, drinks & laughter thru the night.
