2004: A Hong Kong Odyssey was part of the Two or Three Things You Want to Know About Hong Kong series. It was a work governed mainly by sounds and images, without a traditional narrative, exploring the identity and history of Hong Kong. Mathias Woo was the director and he was also responsible for the other aspects of the performance like the multi-media presentation and stage design. In this performance, various talents were invited to contribute: Ellen Joyce Loo of at17 gave a live music performance, and the actress Kate Yeung played a leading role. The sound and music creation was by Jason Choi, Digilick, Nerve and PixelToy; and a video unit from Berlin, pReview, was invited to participate in the production of digital images. In this performance, stories and impressions about Hong Kong were told through the various media, including the stage, the set, text, sounds, music, songs, and images.
