Kwanyin is name of a popular buddha in China; kwan(guan2) means view, observe, watch, etc... yin(yin1) means music, sound, sonic existence, information, etc...
It's the first open venue for experimental & improvising musicians/artists who live in or pass through Beijing. Started as an idea from Kwanyin Records, it offers opportunities for artists from different backgrounds who now (or in the future) are into free music, i.e. abstract and spiritual sound, field recording mixes, noise, as well visual art, body performance, etc., also combined with film screenning, lecture, workshop and special party.
Non-profit and self-funded.
