Paranormal Storytime is an event presented by AQNB examining the aesthetic imagination of horror, the uncanny and mysticism in contemporary visual art, music and digital culture. Featuring a talk by writer Elvia Wilk, a live performance by producer and DJ Swan Meat, as well as a screening of video works by artists Tianzhuo Chen and Wang Newone.
Taking its title from a phenomenon of supernatural stories shared by YouTube vloggers, Paranormal Storytime looks at the digital age’s occult resurgence and neo-gothic tendencies, as well as our fear of the unknown and its relation to technology.
