About the Showcase

  • Light installation Artists and Designers
  • Immersive and interactive installations
  • Projection-Mapping Artists
  • Creative and Generative Coding Artists
  • Kinetic and Responsive Installations
  • Any other practitioners willing to submit their proposals are also welcome.

Artillume is a collaborative space for experimental new media arts, a vibrant platform for facilitating the assimilation and convergence of the creative energy of all creative and trans-disciplinary new media artists and practitioners at one place. This allows new ideas to incubate and culminate into possibilities with commercial output.

The convergence takes the form of collaborations, conferences, art meet-ups, workshops and seminars, through which we introduce students, emerging artists, and practitioners to this extended new media community, and celebrate the growth of experimental new media arts.

Collective consciousness

In a world defined by E – ecstasy, exclusivity and e-enabled everything, we can all feel like tiny specs, digits, lost in the anonymity of a digital world. And that is when we need to band together purposefully and publicly, to emerge from the singular, atomised spaces we inhabit to a unified whole. We need art and public spaces to provoke us and remind us that the earth, the biggest E word there is, only works as a collective.

Where did we come from, where are we going to, only become clear when we are on a continuum and we can see ourselves more from the dark to the light. Not one birth in a lifetime but the constant birth in every minute, a billion people and a billion possibilities emerging from one infinitesimal moment to the next. We all eventually emerge from somewhere and go someplace. But what makes it interesting is the journey we take and the way we influence each other as we live out our dreams.

This showcase is a public expression of this journey into the making of a collective consciousness. It is a celebration of the spirit of unity, of the great big churn. That is the place where differences die. We gather courage to change our world, make it a better place only when we merge as one.
