SUMMARY:"To the Last Gram" Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Too big. Too small. Wanting to feel special. Never feeling enough. \nLet’s talk about the gooey and messy parts of growing up at the book launch of To the Last Gram by debut creators Shreya Davies and Vanessa Wong ❤️‍🔥 \nGrowing up as a young Indian girl in 1990s Singapore\, To the Last Gram follows Divya’s coming-of-age journey as she finds herself off-kilter and increasingly at odds with food\, family\, and her own body. Told through Shreya Davies’ gentle yet incisive words and Vanessa Wong’s disarmingly surreal illustrations\, the comic will surely rip you at the seams and sew you back together again. To the Last Gram is not about recovering from an eating disorder\, but about living with one. \nModerated by the incredible Prasanthi Ram\, hear from Shreya and Vanessa about their creative process and then weave your thoughts about the book into a collaborative community tapestry. Grab a copy of the book and have it signed by the creators in person! \n✨ Preorder the comic from Book Bar by 28 April and collect it at the launch together with a FREE art print! \n📌 Limited seating is available on a first-come-first-served basis\, with standing room available. Slots will be prioritised for registered attendees (with a 10-minute grace period)\, but walk-ins are welcome if there is capacity! \nABOUT THE LAUNCH \nDate: Thursday\, 1 May\, 2025\nTime: 2PM – 4PM\nVenue: Book Bar\, 57 Duxton Road\, Singapore 089521 \n🕑 1.45PM – 2.00PM Registration\n🕑 2.00PM – 2.45PM Conversation with Creators (Moderated by Prasanthi Ram)\n🕒 2.45PM – 3.00PM Audience Q&A\n🕔 3.00PM – 4.00PM Book Signing / Community Tapestry Activity

SUMMARY:Objectifs Film Club X Walter Benjamin Reading Group: Dance Of A Humble Atheist
DESCRIPTION:Objectifs Film Club x Walter Benjamin Reading Group: Dance of a Humble Atheist by Toh Hun Ping x One Way Street by Walter Benjamin \nFri\, 28 Feb 2025 | 7.30pm – 9pm\nVenue: Objectifs Workshop Space \nOrganised in collaboration with the NUS Malay Studies Department \nFree admission\, please RSVP here. \nPlease note that as this is a film screening x reading group\, participants will be required to finish the reading beforehand in order to partake in the programme. You may access the reading at this link. \n\nWalter Benjamin’s One-Way Street is an essayistic voyage of leaps\, disjuncture\, misleads\, and occasional dead-ends. A bewildering read\, likely to be influenced by Surrealism in the 1920s\, it comprises meditative fragments of extreme brevity\, cryptic ellipses\, and satisfying length on a range of subjects and formats – dreams\, cities\, childhood\, diary\, writing advice. One can start reading back to front\, from the middle then either way\, it doesn’t matter. The fragments of prose hang together like a collage\, which may only make ‘sense’ if we appreciate what collage does and the effect it creates. Headings with the name of a city do not tell us much about the place\, upsetting the relationship between ‘title’ and ‘content’. \nWe may find similar experimentations with form and content in the film Dance of the Humble Atheist by Toh Hun Ping\, in which the filmmaker meditates on ‘death\, faith\, the possibility of the afterlife\, the natural world\, consciousness\, and time.’ A larger question we will explore in our discussion is: Where\, when\, why\, and how do we make space for and embrace incoherence\, absences\, empty spaces\, non-linearity\, nonsense\, and irrationality? Engaging the essay and film as companion pieces\, this Film Club x Reading Group session invites readers to unpick and unravel our taken-for-granted notions of ‘form’ that structure our experience of art and culture. \nThe discussion will focus on the following ‘fragments’ from One-Way Street: No. 113\, Chinese curios\, Gloves\, Mexican embassy\, Construction site\, Teaching aid\, Post no bills\, No. 13\, Arc lamp\, Loggia\, Travel souvenirs\, Polyclinic\, Legal Protection of the needy\, To the Planetarium. Access the reading here. \nThe session will be led by Alicia Izharuddin. \n\nWalter Benjamin was a German-Jewish writer and philosopher whose influential work on art\, history\, modernity\, and capitalism has become a protean and prophetic lens for our collective past\, present and future. Although he wrote mainly about the ruins and emerging cultures of Paris and Berlin\, the essence of his arguments about how we write and experience the historical present\, how we experience art\, and how we must engage with the relentless onslaught of capitalism are relevant to us living at a time defined by both ruin and perpetual states of emergence. \nKey themes that animate Walter Benjamin’s well-known writings can be appreciated in Southeast Asian filmmaking. The Objectifs Film Club x Walter Benjamin Reading Group is a space for re-reading Benjamin’s work through Southeast Asian films about cultural memory\, collective pasts and futures\, post-colonialism legacies\, and affect in an age of information overload. \n\nAbout Dance of a Humble Atheist\nAn existential journey of semi-abstract imagery inspired by the filmmaker’s personal ruminations on death\, spiritual faith\, nature and the cosmos. From the funeral of a dying being\, a wondrous cornucopia after life\, to a phosphoric revolt of consciousness. This silent film is created entirely via frame-by-frame animation\, using digital scans of over six hundred individually sculpted ceramic reliefs. With production support from Pinch Ceramics Studio (Singapore). \nAbout the facilitator\nAlicia Izharuddin is currently a Senior Visiting Fellow in Gender and Sexuality at the National University of Singapore where she teaches courses on film and gender in Southeast Asia. She is committed to the public engagement of academia through organising reading groups in bookshops and women’s rights organisations. An interdisciplinary scholar in gender studies by training\, she has taught at the University of Malaya\, Harvard University\, and held prestigious fellowships at the Harvard Divinity School and Leiden University. \nAbout the filmmaker\nToh Hun Ping is a video artist\, experimental filmmaker and film researcher. His video works explore and express themes of mental instability\, alternate realities\, resistance and existence. He employs experimental moving image-making methods from film-scratching\, bleaching photographs\, merging materials (mud\, meat\, nails) with video stills\, to stop-motion animation with ceramic reliefs. The works have been presented in exhibitions and film festivals in Hong Kong\, Singapore\, Taipei\, Paris\, Seoul\, Tokyo\, Boston and Bangkok. As a film researcher\, he is investigating the history of filmmaking in early-mid 20th century Singapore\, and has served as researcher-writer and video editor for projects organised by The National Museum of Singapore and Asian Film Archive (‘State of Motion’). He also started the Singapore Film Locations Archive\, a private video collection of films made in and about Singapore\, and runs a website about the intrigues of old Singapore film locations (sgfilmlocations.com). \nAbout the NUS Malay Studies Department\nThe NUS Malay Studies department aims to promote intellectual awareness to the concerns of the globalised Malay world through world-class teaching and research. It is home to the interdisciplinary synthesis of local\, decolonial\, and western approaches to Malay cultures of Southeast Asia and beyond. The department also maintains strong links with the local community in terms of policy studies\, public intellectual engagement and social service. \nAbout the Objectifs Film Library\nThe Objectifs Film Library is an initiative by Objectifs that aims to be a resource for film lovers in Singapore and the region. Currently\, the collection is focused on short films from Southeast Asia. \nUsers will be able to rent some of these films to watch in the comfort of their homes\, and a wider selection is available exclusively at our centre. \nAccess the Objectifs Film Library here.

SUMMARY:TOOLS: A Workshop Series for Playwrights Exploring Theatricality - Magic Props
DESCRIPTION:This workshop investigates the remapping process\, where one thing stands in for another and real-world elements correspond with their stage-space equivalents. What happens when a stick becomes a gun or a house is described as an imaginary zone? We’ll examine the audience’s role in recognizing these substitutions and experiment with how to teach them to understand the play. \nThis is part of a workshop series by our visiting resident playwright Sean Dunnington. It invites playwrights to be curious about theatricality. Each session dives into a specific element of this conceptual spell\, blending discussion\, hands-on activities\, performance\, and experimentation.

SUMMARY:Ethos Nights: Faceri
DESCRIPTION:Faceri is a night of film and spoken word co-presented by the Asian Film Archive and Ethos Books. The second of the Ethos Nights series\, this event features three short films and four writers\, tracing the lines of making and unmaking evoked by the etymology of the word “fashion”\, from the old French “Façon\,” meaning “a making\, style\, appearance\, behavior”. Through material culture we style ourselves\, but also create a living nexus of identity that people can don. This in turn stems from Latin “faceri”: the act of doing\, making\, creating; the act of birth itself. Through the interweaving of film and spoken word\, Faceri will explore materiality\, identity\, and craft. \n📅 Date/Time: 8 Feb 2025\, 5.30pm\n📍Venue: Oldham Theatre \nProgramme: \n🎥 In Pursuit of Temples in the Sky (Gagandeep Singh\, 2021)\nWith live narration by Shawn Hoo \n🎥 A million Threads (Thu Thu Shein\, 2006)\nWith textual responses by Jennifer Anne Champion and Prasanthi Ram followed by an improvised poem co-created with the audience by Shivram Gopinath \n🎥 Roach Love (Jacen Tan\, 2022)\nWith an exquisite corpse \nThis event will feature Shawn Hoo\, Jennifer Anne Champion\, Prasanthi Ram and Shivram Gopinath.

SUMMARY:From Person to Page: Expressing the Self in Comics with Tania De Rozario
DESCRIPTION:The glow in your chest when you find the perfect meme to explain the day you just had. The laughter that bubbles up when your friends share the same. We have all experienced how images and narratives go hand-in-hand to move our emotions. \nJoin writing and visual art powerhouse Tania De Rozario in this four-week series\, where she will introduce you to her favourite comics\, demonstrate how the craft of comics allows you to understand visual metaphors\, and explore tools used in visual storytelling to make introspective\, diaristic comics. \nEvery week\, we will share our writing and drawing with one another in a casual environment. You don’t need to be a professional artist or writer to participate! \n  \nSESSION OUTLINE \nAll sessions will be held from 10am – 12pm Singapore time (SGT) / 6pm – 8pm Vancouver time (PST). Please use a time zone converter to find the corresponding time in your location. \nWe will be drawing and writing during this workshop. Please come with blank paper\, a pen and a pencil. If possible\, it would be great if you have a phone or camera that allows you to upload photos of your drawings to the internet. \n  \nSession 1: Thinking About Storytelling\nSaturday\, 8 February 2025 (SGT) | Friday\, 7 February 2025 (PST)\nLet’s begin by looking at frameworks through which we can begin to analyse and appreciate comics storytelling. We will also look at grids and experiment with how they can be used as structural guides to help organise information\, create rhythm\, and/or provide points of focus. \nSession 2: Visual Metaphors & Mark-making\nSaturday\, 15 February 2025 (SGT) | Friday\, 14 February 2025 (PST)\nIn this session\, we will look at the use of imaginative imagery in comics\, with a focus on non-representational elements as well as metaphorical images. We will also experiment with developing our own visual metaphors through a drawing exercise that utilises free association. \nSession 3: Medium\, Method & Material\nSaturday\, 22 February 2025 (SGT) | Friday\, 21 February 2025 (PST)\nExplore how different mediums and materials can help us expand storytelling possibilities and widen our visual vocabularies\, freeing us up to discover new ways of working and new ways of taking pleasure in the work that we make. \nSession 4: Hybrid Comics & Experimental Comics\nSaturday\, 1 March 2025 (SGT) | Friday\, 28 February 2025 (PST)\nIn our final session\, we will look at how comics-makers are pushing boundaries in terms of story structure\, form\, material\, language\, and the comic book as an object itself. We will also look at examples of poetry comics and visual art (e.g. painting\, collage\, sculpture) that combine image\, text and material in ways that we can learn from. \n  \nABOUT TANIA DE ROZARIO \nTania De Rozario is a writer\, visual artist\, and the author of four books.

SUMMARY:[Collected on Paper] Occasion #1: Time Capsules
DESCRIPTION:A book showcase initiated by Hong Shu-ying \n14 Sep to 21 Dec 2024\nObjectifs Library\nFree admission \nRelated events\nBook Sharing (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Wed 2 Oct\, 7.30pm – 9pm\nLocation: Objectifs Workshop Space\nFree admission \nBook Club #1: Time Capsules (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Thu 14 Nov\, 7.30pm – 9pm\nLocation: Objectifs Annexe\nFree admission \nPREMISE \n“[collected on paper] has a simple premise. It intends to combine: \n\nthe magic of hearing an artist or bookmaker share about their process\, and\nthe luxury of time and comfort when reading in a library.\n\nAn art book is a curious object—it’s an artwork you can touch and carry around. It can have pictures and texts\, or many pictures and no text\, or even texts and no pictures. \nArt books afford a private space and mode of encounter that can be revisited freely and repeatedly. While I love the conversations surrounding books and their makers at an art fair\, it’s an awfully extroverted endeavour. [collected on paper] offers a chance to explore different art books and the creators’ thoughts in an intimate setting\, with notes on their processes and materials.” \nMODE \nA selection of books will be presented alongside a book club under a particular idea on each occasion. The showcase is held within an existing art book library\, allowing the books to be encountered in the context of other art books. \nThe first occasion will reflect on the idea of time capsules. On this occasion\, the books selected for discussions related to time capsules contain images that share certain qualities with the capsules themselves: \n\nmost of the images in these books were not originally intended to become part of a book.\nthese images\, like most in books\, gain additional readings over time\, but they also become irreplicable\, as the shift in time directly impacts their context.\n\n[collected on paper] is co-programmed by Hong Shu-ying and Objectifs Centre for Photography and Film. \n\nOccasion #1: Time Capsules  \nA time capsule is a container where things are well-kept and protected from the elements. I’ve always found it fascinating that everyday objects can become archived and emblematic of their era once they are placed in a time capsule. These items aren’t necessarily exclusive or rare but serve as a snapshot of what the capsule’s creator valued at that moment. The very existence of a time capsule implies that care and resources have been dedicated to preserving these objects. \nOn this occasion\, the books selected for discussions related to time capsules contain images that share certain qualities with the capsules themselves: \n\nmost of the images in these books were not originally intended to become part of a book.\nthese images\, like most in books\, gain additional readings over time\, but they also become irreplicable\, as the shift in time directly impacts their context.\n\nBooks Featured 📚📚📚 \n\nAparna Nori – 24 Slides\nGeorge Wong – Wallet\nLai Yu Tong – Things I Bought\, Things I Threw Away\, Things I Ate\, Things I Saw\, Things I Made\, and Other Things (For Future Reference)\nLou / Atelier HOKO – Spider & Man\n\n\nAbout Hong Shu-ying \nHong Shu-ying 方舒颖 is an artist who collects and works with found images and materials. She recontextualises familiar sights and sounds to highlight patterns\, repetitions\, and contradictions related to inheritance and ways of learning. \nHer recent projects delve into informal archives\, which act like personal and communal time capsules that encapsulate the banalities and peculiarities of life. These include handwritten elements found in scores and annotations\, alongside amateur videos and images. This fascination is informed by her experiences growing up in amateur Chinese orchestras and the internet. \nShu holds a BFA (Hons) in Media Art (Photography) from Nanyang Technological University\, School of Art\, Design\, and Media. She was awarded the Kwek Leng Joo Prize of Excellence in Photography and featured in the 6th Women in Film and Photography Showcase by Objectifs (Singapore). Recently\, she had her first solo presentation at Esplanade (Singapore) as part of the Singapore Art Week 2024. She has participated in exhibitions\, showcases\, and festivals internationally\, including in Austria\, Cambodia\, China\, Germany\, Indonesia\, Italy\, Malaysia\, the Netherlands\, South Korea\, Taiwan\, and Thailand.

SUMMARY:Waterloo Street Stories 2024: Cor Machina (Heart of the Machine)
DESCRIPTION:Cor Machina (Heart of the Machine) is an immersive and interactive experience combining poetry\, sound\, and light. Part of “Waterloo Street Stories 2024: Interplay” and Centre 42’s 10th Anniversary celebrations\, this event celebrates the rich histories and communities of Waterloo Street. \nWaterloo Street represents Singapore’s diverse heritage\, and Cor Machina explores the connections between communities and the arts\, symbolised by the typewriter as a relic with the poet as its beating heart. The typewriter’s mechanical clatter echoes modern life’s relentless grind\, yet within this noise\, there is beauty—a reminder that even in the machine\, the human heart creates with hope. \nCor Machina captures this playfully\, by inviting participants to explore these themes through creation. Audiences first enter an installation of pre-made prompts that draws from personal\, communal memories and stories of the street. They’re invited to send in an order for a poem to the Proletariat Poetry Factory\, which becomes a meta memory machine. Poets\, musicians\, and artists create new memories and stories from their inputs\, blending them with the street’s past. \nThe work evokes collective remembrance and celebrates the street’s heritage in a contemporary context. The intent is to spark meaningful conversations\, weaving together past and present\, individual and collective experience. This performance is also in conjunction with Centre 42’s 10th Anniversary\, serving to commemorate our placemaking and memory making on Waterloo Street.

SUMMARY:Speculative Comics: Strangely and Surprisingly Familiar
DESCRIPTION:Speculative comics are graphic narratives with a touch of science fiction and fantasy\, but what makes them speculative are the questions they ask about our present world. \nHow do speculative comics take familiar cultural myths and folklore from the past and combine them in ways that are strange and surprising? How might these combinations help us think differently about the past and present\, or imagine possible futures? \nIn this cosy lecture and Q&A\, Professor of English Gui Weihsin explores how comics can be portals into reimagined realities. Take a trip with him into the fantastical worlds of Difference Engine comics such as Afterlife: The Boy Next Realm and Work-Life Balance: Malevolent Managers and Folkloric Freelancers and you might just step out of it with a strange but renewed sense of the world around you. \nComics will be available for sale too! This event is supported by Sing Lit Station.

SUMMARY:Open Call for Writers – Sound Plot: ULU
DESCRIPTION:Sound Plot is Centre 42’s audio plays series\, each edition drawing on a certain geographic area in Singapore. This edition\, produced in collaboration with the NTU Museum\, zooms in on Jurong West and its surrounding area\, where the university is located. \nThis is an invitation for two writers to respond through audio drama to this fascinating area\, guided by the curatorial prompt “Ulu”. Selected writers will need to be available for an intensive 3-week script development phase in October 2024\, and will work with a director during the recording and production process in November & December 2024. Audio production will be done in collaboration with Artwave Studio\, and slated for release online in January 2025. \nThis is a paid opportunity\, and commissioned writers will receive $1\,000 each. \n\n\n\n\nTO APPLY\n\n\n\n\nApplication period runs from 5 August 2024 (12pm) to 15 September 2024 (12pm). Please complete this online form to submit the following: \n\nYour updated CV. Highlight your experience in writing for / working in the audio medium.\nA writing sample of no more than 10 pages. This should be from an existing stage play\, audio play\, or screenplay.\nYour proposal for a 15-minute audio play\, which must:\n\nrespond to the curatorial prompt below\ntell us about the curiosity\, fascination\, or other impulse that draws you to this work\, and how you imagine this play might delve into these ideas\ndescribe your ideas for the narrative\, characters\, and world that the play takes place in\nbe no more than 2 pages.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCURATORIAL PROMPT\n\n\n\n\nULU \nJurong West tends to be the butt of our “ulu” jokes. After all\, it’s where we seem to tuck away things we’d rather not see: cemeteries\, a man-made island heaving with chemicals\, and secretive military bases. \nBut if we look beneath this industrial veneer – always building\, always reclaiming – what other stories might we find? Here thrum large swathes of undeveloped secondary forest\, rewilding over the memories of the gambier plantations that kickstarted Singapore’s endless development. Here\, the coast hugs the mouth of the Straits of Johor\, where we can still imagine our deep connections to ancient kingdoms. Here lies a large university town\, filled with utopian architecture that tells a story about a world that could be so much better and kinder to the earth. And here lie the hopes and dreams of new families looking to build lives in one of the fastest-growing residential zones on the island\, each built-to-order flat remaking the “ulu” face of the Western region. \nWe invite you to write a play that reckons in any way with these ideas. Whether you’re curious about the many layers of history in Jurong West; have a story to tell about the diverse range of people who live\, work\, and play here; or have a speculative tale about its future\, we want to hear your ideas! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE\n\n\n\n\nThe turnaround for these audio plays will be quick and intensive. Selected writers will need to be available for the phases outlined below and commit to the duration of the project. \n5 August – 15 September: \n\nOpen Call for Proposals\nPrepare your documents and apply via this form\n\n20 September: \n\nSelected writers will be notified\n\n1 October – 21 October: \n\nScript development intensive\nWriters will need to be available to turn in drafts of their script\, engage in discussions with script dramaturg\, director\, sound designer and producer\n\n27 October – 10 December:\nAudio pre and production phase \n\nWriters will need to be ready for script edits\, rehearsals with voice actors and director\, and participate in the recording process\n\n6 January – 17 February: \n\nAudio post-production phase: reviewing of edits and final publishing\n\n20 January – 28 February \n\nLaunch of Audio Plays\, starting from 20 January 2025

An attic with yellow wallpaper\, and a room of one’s own.  \nWhere do we go to get away\, if only for a while? Who do we become\, in these hidden spaces\, that we might not be able to\, in other areas of our lives?  \nCan these protected spaces heal and uplift\, or can their insularity turn them into troubling echo chambers? When is it liberating to get away from the world\, and when does escapism become its own prison? \nIn this four-week workshop\, we will explore the nature of a hidden space\, what it might signify to us\, and how it might transform us — for better or for worse. We will examine the question of how to write about space — its politics and materiality\, its personal as well as sociological significance. \n​This workshop is suitable for writers of poetry\, prose fiction and creative non-fiction. \nBy the end of the workshop\, participants can expect to produce up to six pages of work\, or rework a draft that they have previously completed.  \n𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀: 1st\, 8th\, 15th Jun\, (one week break) and 29th Jun 2024  \n𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲: 9.30am – 12.30pm on Saturdays   ​ \n𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Your MOTHER Gallery\, 26A Rowell Road.
