M*SYNC 2017
A sunset event at MPavilion with snooze pods and a set synced to the heartbeats of the crowd.
Overview
Dance, music and experimental art return to the Queen Victoria Gardens' 2017 MPavilion architecture commission. Back for its second year, M*SYNC sets out to celebrate love as a contemporary ritual with the aid of artists from both home and abroad.
M*SYNC will take place on Saturday, February 11 from 5–9pm. The evening will see LA-based band Tropic of Cancer make their Australian debut, in a set synced to the heartbeats of the crowd. They'll be joined by the likes of Sydney sound artist Gail Priest, dancers Niharika Senapati and Benjamin Hancock, and newly formed music project Queens of the Circulating Library from Jonnine Standish and Ying-Li Hooi.
As part of this year's M*SYNC, MPavilion will also install a series of suspended 'cardiophonic' 3D knitted snooze pods — or Hypnapods — created by arts group Unconscious Collective. Pop by during the day between February 9 and 14 (10am to 12pm or 2pm to 4pm) to experience them for yourself.
