Cycling Wheel: The Orchestra – Reimagining Marcel’s bicycle wheel as a light+sound Instrument

Created by Hong Kong based Keith Lam, Seth Hon and Alex Lai, “Cycling Wheel” is an installation and performance that borrows the concept of Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel and re-imagines it as a dynamic and interactive performative instrument, transforming its mechanics into sound and light. The performance took place on October 7th 2017 at Nuit Blanche Taipei / Taiwan.

“To see that wheel turning was very soothing, very comforting…I enjoyed looking at it, just as I enjoy looking at the flames dancing in a fireplace.” –– Marcel Duchamp elaborate how he liked watching audience to spin the wheel of his work Bicycle Wheel in the exhibition – and audience can’t even touch it after the first exhibition , indeed. –– Keith Lam
