Noise Singapore is an arts festival for young people, by young people. Building on various media platforms, Noise Singapore is dedicated to creating noise about the work of young artists in Singapore.
An initiative of the National Arts Council, this festival which is into its third year is unlike most other festivals – the creative works will not be exhibited on conventional platforms but across mass communication channels like the internet, radio, television, magazines and newspapers. As Noise Singapore is focused on bringing creative works by youths to other youths, the online and mass media provides an apt and accessible platform to showcase these works to an international audience.
Noise Singapore aims to unearth new talent and inspire groundbreaking content from youths in Singapore. It is the modern creative canvas – the ubiquitous nature of the electronic and mass media – that gives youths from all walks of life the opportunity to actively participate in artistic creativity, instead of merely being passive audiences.
With these media platforms providing widespread access to the art works, Noise Singapore also serves as an extensive talent-scouting marketplace for the respective industries to spot fresh creative talent here.
Singapore is the first international partner and Asian chapter of a global Noise network. Other partners are Australia and the United Kingdom.
