Get your best Halloween costume ready and join us for a free party featuring live music, roaming performances and lucky door prizes, as DISTRACTION stays open late.
What will you wear to dance the night away with the ghosts of your attention at this special Halloween edition of Friday Night Social?
For one night only, bounce around a sonic maze created by Interactive Composition students from the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music and Victorian College of the Arts. Keep an eye out for ButohOUT! dancers moving through otherworldly exhibition spaces and don’t miss Rino’s DJ set that will provide the perfect soundtrack for exploration of the places where your attention goes to die.
More details to come!
Science Gallery Melbourne’s Friday Night Socials are free parties where you can explore the latest exhibition against a backdrop of immersive performance acts and live DJ sets. Food and drinks are available for purchase.
Focusing on interactive games, play and creative technologies, the DISTRACTION exhibition explores the ways we might harness the cacophony of digital content and find meaning within it.
ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Rino is the solo project of Indonesian born, Melbourne/Naarm-based producer Rino Darusman. Spanning realms of soaring euphoria and hypnotic rhythms, Rino’s sonic world is at once meditative and energetic. It showcases a brand of electronic music that conveys deep human emotions and provides a highly visceral experience through vast textures and tuneful melodies.
