Osage: :: Value of Values – Neuro-design Blockchain Art Project by Maurice Benayoun: 17.03 - 29.04.2023

The exhibition presents new media artist Maurice Benayoun’s latest development in his pioneering neuro-design blockchain-based artwork Value of Values (VoV).

Visitors of the exhibition participate in the neuro-design process by giving shape to human values (e.g. LOVE, MONEY, FREEDOM) directly from their mind and assessing their evolution just by thinking.

The generated shape becomes Non-fungible Tokens (NFT) on the Blockchain, opening the path for new market forces to drive the trade of Human Values. When trading the Value tokens, visitors give a price to each value, which reflects how they perceive, select, represent, interpret, collect, share, and rank human values that determine human actions.

Listening Room 10: Listen to the Sphinx

Hong Kong New Music Ensemble’s signature recital series The Listening Room, in partnership with Sigma Projects, is returning in February! To kickoff 2023, HKNME invited their member Loo Sze-wang, who is arguably one of the best sheng players in the world, to work with their leading musicians to curate a progressive and thought-provoking programme. The recital features music by prominent composers from East Asia, including a world premiere by leading composer Chan Hing-yan, who is a longtime collaborator of the virtuoso.
