BYOX fair: Opening and panel

​Bring Your Own X is an exhibition responding to reassembly and disassembly as part of Singapore Design Week. It is part of the "Reinvention" programme presented by Singapore Science Park, and curated by OuterEdit.

​Inspired by Bring Your Own Beamer (BYOB) popularised by Anne De Vries and Rafael Rozendaal, BYOX envisions a dynamic exhibition shaped by interaction between visitors and the work. Designers and technologists are invited to submit plug-and-play, interactive installations using microcontrollers, sensors, artificial intelligence, robotics, mixed reality and digital interfaces.

​Drawing from the core ethos of BYOX, the three panellists from diverse creative backgrounds will discuss the role of interactive technologies in actively assembling and disassembling societal narratives, urban environments, and cultural identities. Framed as citizens in this ongoing design experiment, the audience is invited to consider how creative technology and design might shape Singapore’s evolving identity, and their own role within it.

​Featuring Tan Wen Jun (architect), Tisya Wong (artist–designer) and Ziqq Rafit (design strategist). Moderated by Yeo Ker Siang, designer
