Amazing events for this weekend in Hanoi

There are a lot of amusing events you can enjoy in Hanoi this weekend, and here are the ones we recommend.

Sonic Dreams: An Audio/Visual Live Show
 
Sonic Dreams: An Audio/Visual Live Show.
Sonic Dreams: An Audio/Visual Live Show.
Audio-Visual interaction is a treat to explore new ways of exploring the synchronicity and correspondence. It’s the way to explore possible relationships between sound and image, but most importantly, it allows for those moments when sound and image fuse and become indistinguishable.
In other word, it’s the practice of experimenting different ways of seeing sound as the visual dance the music. When the sound and the visuality interpenetrate, it creates a third communicative dimension. The visuals articulate the depth of the music, and, at the same time, the music articulates the depth of the visuals.
It’s just like a collage expanded around time and several spatial and medial layers, breaks free from the two-dimensionality of the surface. It’s just like melting the ice that is the song into the mist that is the image. Sonic dreams happen when this “digital harmony” happen, when the eye hears and the ear sees.
This time, three artists from different cultures however nursing the same experiences/interest in audio-visual live performance: José Venditti (Spain), The Burning Deck (India), Simon Medard (Belgium, visual artist) and Hanoi-based musicians Huong Donna, Nguyen Thuy Linh (dan bau), Alec Schacner will lead us to the most mystical sonic dreams.
