An interactive lighting installation entitled "The Moon Machine" will be displayed at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Piazza pool from today (September 15) until October 8, kick-starting the Mid-Autumn Lantern Carnivals 2023. The installation, organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), will be lit up from 6.30pm to 11pm daily, extended to midnight on the Mid-Autumn Day (September 29).
"The Moon Machine" installation is designed and produced by local team One Bite Design Studio with four members, namely Alan Cheung, Sarah Mui, Sherman Sun and Deanna Lai. The team has set up the interactive lighting installation at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Piazza pool to create lighting effects through visual and sensory technology. The colours of the installation will change in response to the size of the crowd in its vicinity. Members of the public can appreciate different shapes of the moon and take photos with an Instagram filter tailor-made by the team: www.instagram.com/ar/195041303460915.
To avoid overcrowding on the Mid-Autumn Day, members of the public are advised to schedule their visits for other dates during the display period.
In addition to the "The Moon Machine" installation, the Mid-Autumn Lantern Carnivals 2023 will be extended to Victoria Park, Sha Tin Park and Tuen Mun Park from September 23 to October 2 to display beautiful lanterns of different themes. There will be a wide range of activities at the carnivals on specific dates including stage performances, Chinese traditional handicraft demonstrations and intangible cultural heritage item demonstrations by local masters and more. Details will be announced later. The carnivals are one of the LCSD's programmes in support of the Night Vibes Hong Kong campaign.
