We have joined forces with British radio DJ and music producer Nick Luscombe to launch ‘Musicity’, a program of interactive multimedia music programme that will be coming soon to three Chinese cities. On 22 September, the first leg of the tour will be launched in Beijing; following that, on 27 October and 25 November Shanghai and Shenzhen will then host the second and third legs. The event is open to everyone to take part in free of charge and continues until the end of this year.
‘Musicity is an interactive multimedia music project established by Nick Luscombe in London in 2010. The Musicity project invites musicians from across the world to compose original pieces in response to the location and characteristics of certain buildings in a major city. Through online interaction across different countries (overseas through the Musicity website and through WeChat in China) these musicians create a unique experience at the site by utilising music to connect space and sound. With the current trend of online streaming, Musicity aims to make use of the medium of music to allow listeners to rediscover the fun of offline musical exploration, encourage and support innovative music, inspire audiences to discover a new relationship between architectural space and the urban environment and promote cultural exchanges.
