From Seoul (EXiS) to Taipei(EX!T), Kuala Lumpur(KLEX), Macao(EXiM), Nanjing(EXiN) and then, Hong Kong(HKEX), “EX” festival have already gathered the driving forces of experimental media art in Asia.

In this year, EXiM 2013 invites Hangjun Lee from Korea, an outstanding experimental film maker and organiser of EXiS festival, curating two screening programmes of Korean experimental works. The main idea is a summary of old and recent works from EXiS, including some pieces of 16mm film format.

Besides, the highlight of this festival is a performance called “Siting Cinema” which is executed by Hangjun Lee with four 16mm film projectors at 7:30pm on 7th of December. Except for watching 16mm films, feeling an essence of expanded cinema conveyed by Hangjun’s improvisatory live performance with multi-projection collage will be the most significant part. Our eyes are no longer focusing on the mode of single screen and constant playback rate. Instead, we are looking around several overlapping, moving and inconstant projections. The performing work will change depending on each site environment, thus an interlaced dialogue is established between virtual images and real space. Simultaneously, the performance includes also music and sounds composed by Hankil Ryu and Kim Tae Young at this time, which allows us experiencing an experimental creation of deconstruction and reconstruction about light and sounds.
