Countdown to the end of 2013....(not really). And an early 2014 teaser...!


Hello all!

Thanks for the thorough support, not of Prohibited Projects per se, but the idea of a DIY underground hardcore punk scene.

Prohibited Projects can never have existed pulling off shows and events without the help of Blackhole212 and The Substation family, as well as countless individuals and friends from the related circles both locally and internationally. A billion thanks!!!!

We are NOT doing any countdown or year end shows this time round, HOWEVER a hell of a lot of us in the Singapore DIY community will be involved in the SINGAPUNK Biennale, a partner art programme of the Singapore Biennale 2013. The go-to site is http://singapunk-biennale.blogspot.com or email singapunk@gmail.com

Their programmes are from 16-20 December 2013 (with a possibility of a groundbreaking fringe event on 21st December), as well as a 20-26 January 2014 stretch. We're looking at performances, exhibitions, shows, installations, punk theater and of course fun as fuck DIY parties.

Watch out for the opening day program on 16th December 2013, Monday at The Substation Theater from 730pm till 1030pm! FREE ENTRY!

Oh and in between the December - January SINGAPUNK Biennale programmes, there will be a welcoming to the new year massive show, THURSDAY NIGHT THRASH Grande Edition. So if you're working during the new year countdown, dont feel so bad because post-New Year's Day is gonna be a hell of a lot better!!!

Keep this date in your memos folks!

NAZI GORENG (Book launch @ The Substation Classroom) Saturday 9th November


Prohibited Projects presents :

NAZI GORENG Book Launch / Discussion
Saturday 9th November 2013
630pm - 8pm
The Substation Classroom (2nd level)
FREE ENTRY



You are invited to an unofficial book launch + discussion session with Marco Ferrarese, author of NAZI GORENG, a gripping tale of a misled youth in Malaysia, embracing misguided fascist ideology. Whilst largely fictional, NAZI GORENG makes various references to real-life examples to "Kuasa Melayu" (Malay Power) and its inherent questionable existence.

This is a free discussion session with the author! Feel free to engage in discourse and of course bring cash should you want to purchase the book!

For more information on the book, check out www.monsoonbooks.com.sg/nazi-goreng
