The courtyard of the former Tan Par apartment block will turn into a chamber of sound and video installation. Fifteen recycled radio receivers will be installed along the communal lane turning to random channels in certain rhythms that orchestrate a form of theater. The artists will also perform a live video projection proposing an immersive, sight-and-sound experience for the audience.
Khvay Loeung (b. 1940, Svay Rieng) is a sound specialist and inventor. He is also an Ajar for funeral ceremonies. With a strong interest in electronics, Loeung self-teaches and experiments with sound creation. He creates and modifies DIY sound equipment for his work at the funerals where he performs both as a mediator and supplier and controller of sound system. He continuously reinvents his sound system including amplifiers and speakers.
