EXHIBITIONS
Brussels meets Brighton
The Metahub: 120 artists, 10 bands, 3 cities, 1 week
SHUNT LOUNGE
30th April - 3rd May
7pm - Late
Under London Bridge Station
Between 30th April and the 3rd of May London's exciting Shunt Lounge will host a massive exhibition involving Arts Collectives from Brighton, Brussels and London. The event will incoporate a feast of fascinating performance including: live music, puppetry, dance and physical theatre, video and sound installations, photography, slam poetry, scientists, robotics and more.
The themes for the show are: meta-communication, real-time improvisation and inter-cultural understanding. The exploration of these themes will be facilitated by the Meta-Hub.
The Meta-Hub is a computerised Audio-Visual pool operated by 11 Vj's, Dj's and Hackers through which all audio and visual feeds from the entire exhibition pass; all participant artists may then take any data-stream to use as they please.
The Shunt Lounge is an incredible labyrinth of caves and arches underneath London Bridge station which serves as an artistic playground, a concert venue and a gallery.
Parts of the event will also be broadcast on a variety of radio stations, both internet based and fm based. In addition to this, galleries around the world, including in Sydney, Austin and Brussels, will be screening some of the feeds from the Meta-Hub.

The curators of the show, Platform Centrale, have a whole series of interesting and experimental shows lined up over the next couple of years, and are constantly looking to expand their database of participant artists.
“Brussels Meets Brighton” is supported by
Lighthouse
and The Basement.
