First up, we will be collaborating with some of the people who participated in the December edition of SiCKL Open Lab, as well as some fresh faces. The main theme will be developing Wayang Lampu (lightbulbs) into another performance form (potentially), meaning we will be looking at the theme of Light itself in an urban context of storytelling.<br /><br />The collaborators thus far include architect <a href="http://lfss-create.blogspot.com">Lisa Foo</a>, multimedia designer <a href="http://jazmiizwan.dotiro.com">Jazmi Izwan</a>, musician & engineer <a href="http://www.myspace.com/supercashew">Ronnie Khoo</a>, musician lecturer <a href="http://www.myspace.com/azmylyunor">Azmyl Yunor</a>, writer <a href="http://http://www.thenutgraph.com/who-are-we">Zedeck Siew</a>, and writer and occasional photographer <a href="http://nonseng.blogspot.com">Myra Mahyuddin</a>.<br /><br />If all goes well, we are looking at presenting a workshop performance sometime in June 2009.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119941110796413390.post-72468802678165433002008-12-28T21:05:00.004+08:002009-01-03T11:34:45.068+08:00Pics<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1596/135/63/548166881/n548166881_1817736_5616.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1596/135/63/548166881/n548166881_1817736_5616.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>(Photo by Myra M).<br /><br />The music + light performance at SiCKL Open Lab (SOL) #04 went very well, with good responses from the audience.

A lot of material for our performances, no doubt, and you will soon be the beneficiaries of these political turbulences.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhypHzvetJmC8ZRLlfIroWfNn-R2o6Z2L44ofZDyTNEPmrrnRIYUDBqDEYcoUtryXRdn9PyIW3-vvUbBiDl0loaRdHTvoMojgcOiGoC2uaNTZ1BgqGRhjNIHXYwuYuTiGj-mEbNl_vXtIpU/s1600-h/RIMG0581.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhypHzvetJmC8ZRLlfIroWfNn-R2o6Z2L44ofZDyTNEPmrrnRIYUDBqDEYcoUtryXRdn9PyIW3-vvUbBiDl0loaRdHTvoMojgcOiGoC2uaNTZ1BgqGRhjNIHXYwuYuTiGj-mEbNl_vXtIpU/s320/RIMG0581.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5179882980756026930" border="0" /></a>(Photograph of <a href="http://anwaribrahimblog.com">Anwar Ibrahim</a> - on the cellphone - outside the Bangsar Sports Complex where his daughter, <a href="http://nurulizzah.com/site/">Nurul Izzah</a>, was standing to contest in the Lembah Pantai parliamentary constituency for the 12th Malaysian General Elections.

We hope to create a full performance by mid-year, hopefully at the Annexe at Central Market, Kuala Lumpur. It's a beautiful space with so many possibilities for performance!<br /><br />So, here's to a bright year ahead!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119941110796413390.post-48888978538413773752007-10-21T00:21:00.000+08:002007-10-21T00:25:21.786+08:00New Pictures<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://flickr.com/photos/fahmifadzil"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2051/1656276198_d14b51e3ee_b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://flickr.com/photos/fahmifadzil">New photos</a> from the Wayang Rakyat show at The Curve on 20 October 2007.<br /><br />Photos by Khoo Eng Yow.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119941110796413390.post-8174328078445645582007-10-17T17:59:00.000+08:002007-10-17T18:08:53.413+08:00Painting PuppetsAfter the first performance of Projek Wayang's Wayang Rakyat, entitled 'Sang Kancil dan Sang Buaya', several members of the audience stepped up and asked how we made the puppets. We used perspex instead of leather (it's a reflection of what environment we're in, one can posit) and painted them as you can see below.<br /><br />This is Aziz painting the Pohon Konsumerism.<br /><br />Taken by Gan Siong King.
