MALAYEEN.SPACE (2021)
(Edition commissioned for Serendipity Arts Festival 2023) Participatory New Media Installation Projection, Mic, Digital Interface, ‘On Air’ lightbox, Computer Console, Keyboard, Mouse, Standing Table, Fabric, LED lights and Mounted Speakers Holy Flux! Exhibit curated by The Packet 15-23 December 2023 Goa, India MALAYEEN.SPACE aims to revive and preserve cultural narratives that are at risk of being forgotten by encouraging participants to “SING TO THE STARS!”. Simulating a recording studio, Leyya Mona Tawil’s installation invites participants to enter and contribute their own recordings. Once a recording is submitted, the song that plays back is modulated by the participant’s unique answers. The audio transformations are governed by the distance (in km) between the contributor and the location of their song’s origin, their distance in time to this place, and the song’s intent. By involving visitors in the process of recording and sharing, the installation transforms into an evolving archive. By highlighting the importance of remembering and celebrating the stories and traditions of diasporic communities, MALAYEEN.SPACE addresses sacredness as something that is an ongoing, participatory narrative rather than a static collection. |

20th Annual TBA:22 Festival 11 Sep 2022 Portland OR TBA:22 Festival, in partnership with Arab.AMP Live, presents the legendary Sir Richard Bishop, guitarist and founding member of the band Sun City Girls. Internationally celebrated, Sir Richard Bishop “combines soulfulness and advanced technique with a panache that’s nearly unrivaled among today’s guitarists” (Dave Segal, OC Weekly). Arab.AMP Live also features Lime Rickey International, whose hybrid performances are built with voice, transactive surfaces, and movement. Portland’s own Descending Pharaohs join the night with music influenced by Arabic/Anatolian electric music, spiritual jazz, and British psych. Curated by Leyya Mona Tawil, Arab.AMP is a platform for experimental music and live art by artists of the SWANA diaspora and their allied communities. Arab.AMP Live is a nomadic live event series operating in partnership with venues and festivals inter/nationally. |

Lime Rickey International’s MALAYEEN.SPACE - an interactive digital work
Concept/Design - Leyya Mona Tawil Code/Design - Andrej Hrončo Premieres during British Council’s Net//Work Exhibition May 4th - June 7th 2021; openly accessible from that point onward. Exhibition site: https://wysingbroadcasts.art/ Direct site: https://malayeen.space/ (Chrome or Firefox) MALAYEEN.SPACE is a gift exchange of song; constellations of lullabies, village lore, and battlecries transmitted to and from their origin. You are invited to sing into the stars. Your song will return, having traversed the modulations of time and place. Each exchange is uniquely yours. The audio transformations are governed by the distance (in km) between you and the location of your song’s origin, your distance in time to this place, and the song’s intent. An interactive experience in itself, Malayeen.Space also creates a community-generated sound archive of our diasporic imagination. This project is conceived and developed by Leyya Mona Tawil, in collaboration with Andrej Hrončo. It exists as part of Lime Rickey International’s Noise & Nation - an accumulation of transmissions in performance, sound, and digital form that attend to temporality and a post-border dream. Malayeen.Space was created during Tawil’s Net//Work Residency, presented by the British Council in partnership with Wysing Arts Centre and Digital Arts Studios. The Net//Work Exhibition will take place online on the Wysing Broadcasts site between 4 May and 7 June 2021. |
