I Am Maggie (Melbourne, AU)
SpringCity is a series of multisensory activations by MaggZ - situated within movement, sound, audio-visual experiences and physical installations. Inspired by MaggZ’s hometown of Kunming (Yunnan, China), SpringCity reimagines the city as a vision of the future, with each iteration responding to the SpringCity Manifesto. This Manifesto is a reflection of MaggZ’s ongoing research at the intersection of world-building, cyberfeminism, ancestral practices and archival investigations. Through a diasporic minority-Chinese lens, SpringCity aspires to offer bold and alternative dreaming spaces for those who don’t fit into a box of societal norms.

SpringCity 30642 (Melbourne, AU)
SpringCity 30642 is a multisensory interactive game-performance by MaggZ, situated within movement, sound, installation and technology. SpringCity 30642 transforms different spaces into a participatory game-design laboratory, to further investigate the idea of world-building and heterotopia, through a diasporic minority-Chinese lens. As such, to recontextualise localised ancestral practices of Kunming City (Yunnan Province, China) and club culture, through post-internet lens with body, sound, both physical and digital installation.

SpringCity 43214 (Melbourne, AU)
SpringCity 43214 is an interactive game-performance activated by street dance, sound, audio-visual installation through an Asian-diasporic experimental lens. The performance is a choreographic game with generative gaming rules, each rule is created during the performance by inputs from both performers and the audience, in response to the SpringCity Manifesto through sound and audio-visual cues. Audiences are a crucial part of the rule-making process as part of the game-performance experience. Starring movement artists aqua, hitahhchi and audio-visual artsit d duàn, SpringCity 43214 is taking over DanceHouse Upstairs Studio and Skylab space as MaggZ’s choreographic debut.
SpringCity 43214 is generously supported by DanceHouse, Next Wave and Vichealth through their Future Healthy initiatives.
