In collaboration with Cat Radio, Wit Pimkanchanapong presents an interactive kinetic installation, Octave Maze, as part of the Sonic Voyage: A Journey of Rhythmic Flair exhibition by One Bangkok Retail and Cat Radio
Octave Maze is an evolution of Infinite Maze, an ever-morphing installation originally exhibited at Planetary Seed exhibition at 100 Tonson Foundation. In this reimagined version, Wit integrates an 88-key keyboard to drive an eight-step kinetic sequence, moving beyond the two-step binary pattern of its counterpart at the Foundation. Constructed from 88 acrylic panels, motors, and a counterweight system, Octave Maze comes alive through LED lighting and sound-responsive programming. Each keypress orchestrates a dynamic rise and fall of illuminated panels, creating a visually rhythmic “Moving Melody” where musicians have the power to shape the space through sound.
Octave Maze is now open daily for public interaction from 10:00 to 22:00 at The Storeys, G Floor, One Bangkok (near Jim Thompson and Starbucks Reserve). Free live performances by various artists and musicians will also take place every Saturday from 16:30 to 17:30, organized by Cat Radio

Despite its high-powered reputation, this groundbreaking contemporary art gallery is open to casual art-lovers as well as collectors. By Diana Hubbell
Tell us a bit about the story behind this gallery.
Over the past decade, Bangkok’s art scene has mushroomed from a few scattered galleries into a vibrant, thriving community. Much of that transformation has to do with 100 Tonson Gallery, Aey Phanachet’s groundbreaking contemporary art space in Sathorn. This was the first Thai gallery to participate in Art Basel, the Switzerland art fair, and it’s been a champion of Southeast Asian artists ever since. Despite its high-powered reputation, the gallery is open to casual art-lovers as well as collectors.

Bangkok-based 100 Tonson Gallery, a forerunner in Thailand’s contemporary art scene, announced on September 16 that it will transform into 100 Tonson Foundation. By Margarita Cheng
According to 100 Tonson’s announcement, its shift from a commercial venture to nonprofit space aligns with the gallery’s aims to further pursue its “longstanding mission to support and advance Thailand’s rich and ever-expanding contemporary art scene,” and as it “initially started as a charitable art gallery,” it has “come full circle.” In the last five years, the gallery had been staging six-month-long exhibitions to support artists, instead of its previous shows that had lasted one to three months.
