Misbehaving Machines : Artist Led Tour : Legal Assemblies by Urich lau and Ong Kian Peng

Diving into the nooks of Sim Lim Square and Sim Lim Tower, artists Urich Lau and Ong Kian Peng offered an insider look into their favourite haunts and purchases, sharing ways in which different technical equipment can be used to create interfaces at the intersection of art and technology. They explored various narratives surrounding Singapore’s electronics hub, a space both beloved and plagued by tales of unscrupulous business practices.

About Misbehaving Machines

Misbehaving Machines invites the public into a shared study of how machines behave – thorugh movement, sound and code – unfolding across lectures, listening sessions and workshops that explore how systems operate, interact and respond. Rooted in curiosity, experimentation and collective learning, the series examines the evolving human-machine relationship through art and technology.
