Every year, the interactive works featured in ifva seek to
explore and re-define the meaning of "interactive".
Stories of a Cell Phone by CHIU Yuet-yung, Millie allows the
audience to enjoy instant interactive experience as they watch television
and use mobile phones. In SOUNDgraf , CHEUNG Hon-him, LAM Chifai
and WONG Chun-kit make "sound graffiti" possible. If you want to
experience and explore the ambiguity of "watching and being watched",
LEE Wing-shan's Table-Obscura.II : Intimacy may give you a clue. How about writing a song even if you have no formal music training? Seek help
from CHEUNG Hon-him's Rub. ID#food and Catherine TAI's ATB-02. The
former tries to make use of barcode found in trash to write songs, while
the latter creates a brand-new, robot-like 8-bit electronic instrument from
old toys. In A Map of Our Own — Kwun Tong Culture and Histories MAK
Hoi-shan, Anson works with Yammie CHAN, Yuenya, saSa, imjoy, Yvette
HUI, ar On, Stanley NG, Joshua CHEUNG, WONG Chung-fai, Ronald LEUNG,
youthfotologue, Yu Nicole KT to bring you an "unofficial perspective" on urban redevelopment. LAU Ming-tat, Lawrence's Mushroom on the
Cassette Tape is taken up with reminiscences as he injects new life into
old-school cassette tapes. Tired of "conventional" shopping? CHAN Woonting,
Naomi's Video Vending Machine offers you a radical and reflective
new shopping experience—shopping for pixels! In 5-stars' Identity ,
Winnie SOON uses mobile phones to create a Chinese national flag. Is it
one way of talking about—or preaching—patriotism?
