Freespace Jazz Fest - Jazz Imaginarium
The Box, Freespace , 06.11.2020
Presented as part of Freespace Jazz Fest, Jazz Imaginarium is a multisensory, site-specific event that merges musical improvisation, digital imagery and state of the art technology.

Participating artists include musicians Ted Lo, Joyce Cheung and Tsui Chin-hung, video artist Rodney Ma Lap-yin, spatial designer Jan Wong, lighting designer Ma Ka-wai and sound designer Jason Szeto. The programme is curated by Kung Chi-shing and Yuen Cheuk-wa.
