Gong Projekt (YouTube Channel) is established in 2017. It is a community that connects musicians and composer-performers who are interested in interdisciplinary performance and Chinese ethnic culture. The core members of it are Dong Zhou and Shiwen Wang, they compose, perform and improvise with different artists for each concert. Their debut was a series of concerts in the whole July of 2017 in Wilheimsburger Inselpark, Hamburg. Through many attempts and practices, they found their unique way to transform the ethnic culture into contemporary music and performance which they comment and criticize the modern society with.

DE: 2017 gründeten Dong Zhou und Shiwen Wang das Kollektiv „Gong Projekt“, das interdisziplinäre Musikstücke mit traditionellen chinesischen Elementen produziert und Musiker verschiedener Stilrichtungen zusammenbringt. Sie möchten mit diesem Projekt die bemerkenswerten Elemente alter chinesischer Rituale reproduzieren und sie in Musik und Performance transformieren, um damit die heutige Gesellschaft zu kommentieren und kritisieren.
