Psychic Cinema 2065 explores an alternative cinema of the future through an immersive audio-visual installation reimagining the former Jubilee Theatre. Why do we watch films? Does each audience member have the same experience? How does our imagination augment what is on screen?
This installation reframes the cinematic experience by diminishing one of the fundamental senses associated with it — sight. Employing light sequences and audio samples of heritage material from Singapore’s golden age of film, viewers conceive a unique film only they can ‘see’.
A collective yet intimate encounter, this visceral work invites us to examine our relationship with cinema.
