A decade-old platform that aims to advance artistic positions reflecting on the impact of new technologies on people and culture, WSK is celebrating the 10th edition of Festival of the Recently Possible with a diverse chain of events that showcase the cross-sectional relationships between art, sound, and technology with artists from across the globe, from October 15 to October 28 at multiple locations in Manila.
A variable, ever-shifting, in constant flux, WSK X will unveil its biggest partnership yet with like-minded organizations across the globe: Nusasonic. A creative collaboration between YES NO KLUB (Yogyakarta), WSK Festival of The Recently Possible (Manila), Playfreely/BlackKaji (Singapore), CTM Festival (Berlin), Nusasonic is a multi-year project that plunges into a broad spectrum of experimental sound and music cultures in Southeast Asia, enabling dialogue not only within the region but also with Europe. Supported by the Japan Foundation Asia Center under the Grant Program for Promotion of Cultural Collaboration, WSK X will be holding a series of concerts, residencies, hacklabs, exhibitions, workshops, forums, and open art-science projects, with wider global collaborations.
