SUMMARY:TAF Conversation Series: Stephanie Comilang and Carolina Fusilier (With performance 'Attuning to Sonic Residue' by Carolina Fusilier and Fumitake Tamura)
DESCRIPTION:Conceived as the closing event of TAF’s inaugural exhibition Rituals of Perception\, this iteration of the TAF Conversation Series features a newly commissioned performance by Carolina Fusilier in collaboration with musician Fumitake Tamura\, followed by a conversation between Fusilier and artist Stephanie Comilang\, moderated by Xiaoyu Weng\, TAF’s Artistic Director. The program marks the culmination of TAF’s year-long research on materiality\, focusing on how contemporary artists engage the entanglement of material\, technological\, and embodied systems.Developed as an extension of Fusilier’s installation Inmortalistas (2025) and conceived specifically for the New Bahru School Hall\, the performance Attuning to Sonic Residue centers on a handcrafted device designed to capture radio waves and electromagnetic frequencies\, integrated into a wearable suit. Emitted in real time through a speaker embedded in the costume\, the sound transforms the performer’s body—and the surrounding artworks—into living antennae capable of receiving and amplifying invisible signals. The work frames the body as a technological interface\, rendering perceptible the constant exchanges between bodies\, architecture\, and technological systems\, and positioning active listening as a ritual practice. Approaching radio and technology from a narrative perspective\, Comilang’s video work Piña\, Why Is the Sky Blue? (2021)\, created with Simon Speiser\, unfolds through the voice of Piña\, a sentient AI shaped by ancestral knowledge. The work interweaves the stories of Amazonian women radio broadcasters\, Afro-Ecuadorian and Indigenous healers\, and Filipina spiritual leaders\, whose memories and ritual knowledge are “uploaded” into artificial consciousness.\n\n\n  \nFree admission. \nRegister for the talk here. \nVenue: New Bahru School Hall
