speak on music and design with Khalil Fong.International culture conference,
Liberatum, is coming to Hong Kong for the first time on April 27-29. It will
bring together an eclectic mix of cultural powerhouses, from V.S Naipaul to
Pharrell Williams to Mike Figgis (best known for writing and directing
"Leaving Las Vegas") and Hong Kong's own Wing Shya and Khalil Fong. The
celebrity brains will gather for a three-day powwow to present and talk about
their own projects to the public as well as exchange ideas amongst
themselves. Liberatum is a multidisciplinary festival founded by Pablo
Ganguli in London 11 years ago. It has since taken place in several
countries, including Russia, India, Morocco, Papua New Guinea and Turkey. It
claims to be a humanitarian effort of "international cultural diplomacy" as
well as a celebration of "art, design, fashion, literature, film, music and
ideas." Basically an excuse to bring together some of the most glamorous
thinkers of our time in different parts of the world.read more
