we should do this at the local hawkers ...how?
mwahahaha, the food better be edible and fairly tasty at the end, if not, gonna turn into 'fear factor" street fusion from the deeper lorongs reality show.
Not sure how much a gig like that will cost to the organisers. I know for a fact that musical implements is on the onus of the musicians to prepare, but projectors and ambience lighting is something added
heh, for cost saving and diy spirit(with audience in mnd), just put a table in middle of audience, with laptop on the table. Instruction being printed out clearly on how to select the visuals and play back according to time frame. Various alarm clocks will be put on the table with numbers on it and set to sound off at different timing withing a particular performer's performance set. When alarm sounded, audience to go over the table, off the alarm, play back the visuals on laptop, look into it and tripped out, till the next alarm clock sounding out, another group of audience will take over, off alarm clock, play another set of visuals and so on
Performer will continued with his/her performance while audience doing their part on de- activiating the alarm clocks and trigger visuals.
And to cut down some cost on trippy lighting and feel, place candles, incense, aroma therapy stuff at various spot in the performance place(of course with safety in mind, fire extinguisher which are working and not expired to be place at prominent areas for emergency usage) encourage audience to light up, blow off candles as and when.
oh, and encouraging audience to bring own pillows.
hehe, the above of course, will be make known vaguely to people who might be interested to attend the show so that they can roughly gauge how wanky, nonsensical and free, folks can be to come up with somthing like that and expect audience to be siao as well
I think the audience for such a gig should approach this gig with an open mind. Should not expect what the normal gig would offer. The organiser will have to really think about the marketing aspect of this. Other than that, a sit down, passive type audience is good enough. I mean, isn't that the kind of audience we are getting at most gigs anyway? Heh.
heh, the audience would most likely be friends and friends of performers plus some curious folks, just like typical local gigs i guess.
to make audience have response, either
1) play harsh noise, aka mindfcukingboy style(he is my hero!!!).
2) play so boring until performer also yawning(yes it true, i attended a show before of some arty sound thingy. Caught one of performer yawning half way thru set) At least i was amused by it to forget that the sound wasnt exactly what i like, in sound. Being amused by it was my response.
3) play boring music till audience cant take it and walk out(response), leaving only poor friends inside, too polite to walk out. To pacify friends, make sure theres chicken wings outside venue for them to eat at least when show is really too boring to watch(mwahahahaha, bro aging youth, remember this??)
