| CHAPTER II

In response to the Hanoi Design and Creativity Festival 2023 and Vietnam Cultural Heritage Day, DomDom - The Hub For Experimental Music & Art is delighted to present Chapter II of the "Climate of Sound" project.

The creativity in connecting music with heritage has unveiled unique and fresh opportunities in the field of music research. Following the success of Chapter I held in April, featuring a series of activities such as discussions, presentations, and interactive performances, Chapter II aims to showcase the results obtained from Chapter I while expanding the impact of experimental contemporary music to a wider audience.

The specialized discussion, interactive sound performance workshop connecting heritage, and the unique AI technology-infused showcase event will be the highlights of Chapter II. Particularly noteworthy is the finale - an extraordinary experience featuring sound recordings from the small streets of 36 districts in Hanoi, painting a rich and unique sound cultural picture of the capital of Vietnam.

Dom Dom hopes that this event not only stimulates creativity in the field of experimental contemporary music but also enhances the public's understanding and appreciation of the value of music heritage.
