Incorporating interactive technology with our advocacy in the literary arts, Sing Lit Cloud takes the form of a limited series of standing printers, capable of generating excerpts of quality Singaporean prose on-demand.
Launched in March 2019, Sing Lit Cloud has appeared at Alexandra Retail Centre, The Arts House, Tiong Bahru Bakery (Funan, L4), 52-56 Kampong Java, and a number of neighbourhood libraries (in partnership with the National Library Board).
Capable of printing approx. 40 excerpts of local fiction and non-fiction (from works written in English and translated into English), Sing Lit Cloud promises to to spread the word of Sing Lit in a unique and innovative way.
