About
Wetspace Noise Drips 4.0 is an evolving platform dedicated to experimental sound, noise, and multichannel sonic practices, hosted by Cynk Collective. By setting up a multichannel system, they open a shared space where rehearsing, composing, and performing unfold fluidly.
This year brings together artists working with DIY electronics, custom synthesizers, computer-based systems, site-responsive sound, cross-disciplinary performance, and photography.
Introducing Walkin Lab
Alongside Wetspace 4.0, Cynk Collective introduces Walkin Lab: A Multidisciplinary Collaborative Lab—a new 10-day program expanding Wetspace into a holistic ecosystem of learning, building, collaborating, and performing together.
The Lab brings together 8+ artists from diverse practices including VR, AI, electronics, coding, sculpture, and performance. It functions as:
- A peer-learning space where artists learn from one another through doing
- A community-building platform through dialogue and practice
- A living gallery where anyone can walk in, witness the process, and engage
- A space in constant flux, where ideas develop through shared practice
What is Forplay Society?
Forplay Society
Forplay is an artist-run space, residency and community driven experiment founded by artist and community organiser Seljuk Rustum. This variation in a society form is an autonomous extension for the celebration of the arts and a spontaneous action based union facilitated by artists and curators, Seljuk Rustum (Kochi), Andreas Ullrich (Dresden), and Vivek Chockalingam (Bangalore) – creating a collaboration is grounded in trust, sharing of resources, organisational abilities & common interests within the community.
