Kensal Green Crematorium / Kevin Meng

As a place where jazz musicians from London can mix with those from around the world, this project envisages a building enlivened by music and the noises of the city around. Onto Brick Lane is a small speakeasy-type club and behind is a small hostel for visiting musicians, plus a series of platforms where jazz musicians can improvise for those shopping in the market outside. A prosthetic piece was built to test out the ideas, being worn under one’s outer clothes, and able to played and strummed as one passes through the city. It allows one to create an entirely different aural experience of London as we know it.
