Bring Your Own Beamer: Currents (BYOB: Currents) is a one-night community event on projector-based media. Featuring artists and creatives in Singapore, the event brings together real-time visuals, generative systems and new media pieces. BYOB: Currents is run in a shophouse, where visitors will traverse along a route across three floors of evolving setups and light-based experiments.
This event draws inspiration from the Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB) movement, a series of one-night exhibitions initiated by Anne de Vries and Rafaël Rozendaal in Berlin in 2010. This event envisions a democratised future for new media art and projection-based work, increasing accessibility to artists from different backgrounds.
This edition features works by Heider Ismail, Kumari Nahappan, Ong Kian Peng, Tiong Hong Siah, Valerie Ng, and many other creatives from the open call.
