A Sonic Walk
Now till Jan 18, 2022 In celebration of Thaipusam (a festival celebrated by the Tamil Hindu community in the Tamil month of Thai, which usually falls in January and February), The Arts House is presenting a virtual edition of the festival’s pilgrimage route through a web app. Now available online, the event will run till Jan 18, 2022. The thanksgiving festival is celebrated by the Tamil community to honour Lord Murugan, the Hindu god of war. Believers express their appreciation by participating in the processions and seeking blessings from the deity. The route on the app will cover the neighbourhoods of Little India, Selegie and Fort Canning. Presented through a combination of audio recordings of the music, sounds of the locations along with archival images of Thaipusam over the past five decades, audiences will be able to learn more about the intersection of the rituals with historical locations and significant buildings in Singapore.
