PREMIERE SCREENING WITH LIVE SOUNDTRACK
Jimmy Hendrickx & LIVE SOUNDTRACK by Blu Simon Wasem
Semalu (which means Sensitive Plant) is a story about the children of Cheras, a suburb in the east of Kuala Lumpur.
A place in the middle of a transitional period of modernization. We see the old part of the neihbourhood getting fastly demoliched, to make way for monotomic impersonal apartment blocks. The lasts peace of jungle in the shadow of a building build yesterday.
Between this noizy landscape of constructions we see the youngest generation being bored and don`t know where to go.
Semalu is the second part of a trilogy in which Jimmy experiments with the formats of cinema and documentary.
Travelling around with his camera, Jimmy tries to build magical stories upon realistic filmfootage.
A surrealistic documentary that tries to show some beauty in a monomic and boring world.

wyxmm (Terence Lau )
Bio - wyxmm… .. ...doesn't mean anything.
Made up from a series of random but coincidental letters.
It looks like, but not entirely, a word that sounds like, but not quite like, something that can be pronounced.
The sound/tunes/music/noise created are exactly the same. ..
wyxmm, an emergent esoteric sound artist, excels at disarming melody lines and using random sound samples to add texture to his pieces. His works can be said to be a cross between music and soundscape
