MeshMinds: The Digital Graffiti Wall by Roy Khoo
- Venue: Concert Hall Meeting Point
An interactive installation that brings you a different method of artistic expression! Using a 3D-printed spray can that feels and sounds like a real one, you can spray on a display wall and see the paint mark appear. Instead of vandalising the wall and harming your health, installation is fume-free, easily erasable with a button and also 100% legal!
About the artist
Roy Koo is the founder of IGNITE VR and has been experimenting with virtual reality and 3D printing technology recently to create unconventional interactive installations.
MeshMinds: Sketch-A-Sound by Shafeeq Hafiz
- Venue: Theatre Meeting Point
Create music just by drawing! Grab a pencil and draw out your very own musical composition on special graphite sketch pads that turn your every stroke into sound.
About the artist
Shafeeq Hafiz is currently a Bachelor of Arts (Electronic Music) student at LASALLE College of the Arts. He was first introduced and exposed to electronics and coding in his second year in college.

Knitting Dolly & Yarn Bracelet-making Workshops by Adeline Loo (It Takes Balls)

String and yarn artist Adeline Loo and her band of crafty crafters from It Takes Balls guide you in a couple of fun activities that might change your mind about what knitting and weaving is all about! This is your chance to dive quickly into the world of knitting and weaving.

- Knitting dolly
No, this is not a doll that knits, but rather a large loom that lets you and a bunch of friends knit a continuous tube together. When you are done, sit back and admire your handiwork, which will be displayed throughout Flipside!.
- Bracelet making
A five-minute craft activity that will leave you feeling accomplished and with a cool bracelet on your wrist. Limited places and sessions on a first-come, first-served basis. While materials last.
About Adeline Loo & It Takes Balls

GRIDI
- Venue: Esplanade Concourse
Become a music composer instantly! GRIDI is an accessible and intuitive installation that puts the power of music composition in the hands of anyone that encounters it.
About Yuvi Gernstein
A music producer, guitarist and maker, with formal training from the Jerusalem music academy (2001–2005) specialising in jazz guitar and a master’s degree in creative practice (2010–2011) from Goldsmiths, University of London. Gerstein is also co-founder of the hip hop funk band Coolooloosh (2003–2013), and co-founder of The Slick Studio (since 2013), a recording studio at the heart of Tel Aviv’s vibrant Florentin neighbourhood.
In 2015, Gerstein created GRIDI , a large scale midi sequencer, which allows several users to create electronic music together, in an intuitive and visual way. The idea was to translate the methodology of music composition on computers, which every music producer uses every day, into a physical installation in the real world for everyone to enjoy. Gerstein worked with a team of amazing engineers and programmers and GRIDI has since toured Europe at festivals and events. A video tribute to Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean played by Gerstein on GRIDI has gained over 40 million views on Facebook and set off Gerstein’s career as a music technology innovator. Since then he has created other interactive projects such as Post Post, and is dedicated to further develop the connection between music, technology and innovation.
