5 | Paul Wong Projects | 5.1
By Jocelyn Gan
Award-winning artist Paul Wong, commonly described as the Chinese Andy Warhol, has launched his newest experimental project: '5'. Taking place on the five Saturdays during the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, five diverse and very unique productions are set to take the public on a memorable journey through real, invented and imaginary places. Sounds like a trip unlike no other, huh?
The name '5' was inspired by the "5 Olympics rings, 5 senses, 5 moments,5 colours, 5 encounters". Ranging from 5.1 to 5.5, these events look to stretch the boundaries of virtual space and live media worlds. On February 13 the Paul Wong Projects website went interactive using mobile media technologies and live blogs, kick starting the first of 5 events. The really cool thing about '5', as if it isn't cool enough already, is that all the events can be experienced virtually on the day of each event at 5 pm.
Still to come are the remaining 4 events:
5.2 Virtual ZOOOOOM Feb, 20
5.3 Virtual Led Down The Garden Path Feb. 27
5.4 Virtual One More Than Three Mar.6
5.5 Virtual Five Elements Mar.13
Tickets are $10 at the door for each event. So don't forget to bring your camera or camcorder! These devices are being encouraged to let you film your experience!
