#37. A program with independent sound-art, radiophonic projects and other audio-non-visual misunderstandings. Special; Goh Lee Kwang.
We know Lee Kwang from the days he was doing residencies in Europe, travelling around and doing gigs with his no-input mixing, and projects and cooperations everywhere. Since his last residency in 2010 he’s been back in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, started a family and is still releasing lots of music, making installations and organising concerts. Here’s an edit from some of his works (too much to choose from) we made.
