An evening with Mxshi Mo: 6Sense screening, Q&A and performance

We are delighted that Mxshi Mo will be in-person at Arc Bar to screen his documentary 6SENSE, and perform a live set.
About Mxshi Mo:
Mxhsi Mo is a South African music producer and composer whose work blends gqom, techno, and experimental sounds. As a visually impaired composer living with retinitis pigmentosa, he brings a unique perspective to sound, texture, and memory, shaping his practice through a heightened sensitivity to audio. His approach fuses music production, music theory, and abstract art, often drawing inspiration from astronomy and technology to reimagine sound beyond conventional structures.
About 6SENSE:
6SENSE is a hybrid documentary short that tells Mxshi Mo's story, a young artist from Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa who, whilst dealing with gradual decline into blindness, finds a hidden talent in Gqom music production. Giving him the ability to connect through sound with the world and shine a light out of his own personal darkness.
The film follows Mxshi’s early life, dealing with his own realization around his loss of sight, to his finding of music as an outlet. After connecting through More Time Records with artists in the UK via the internet he began to get his music heard worldwide, whilst still dealing with the increasing loss of sight due to his condition “Retinitis Pigmentosa'.' Mxshi began to find a way through technology to continue to make music without sight as well as connect with the world through his other senses.
6SENSE is directed by duo Amílcar Patel and Chris Kets and is a KAMVA Collective production.
