At the webpage of House on Fire the following, among other things, is written about Galaxy Khmer:

"The band will be joined by other musicians and dancers from Phnom Penh and Battambang. In addition, there will be visuals by the documentary filmmaker Marc Eberle, made especially for this project. What this all amounts to is a bizarre, surreal “rock ’n’ roll circus”, the formal language of which is inspired by the psychedelic multimedia performances of the ‘60s. Under the title Galaxy Khmer, Michael Laub brings to the stage his personal vision of a convergence of “Video, Memory and Rock ’n’ Roll”."

Galaxy Khmer by Michael Laub and the Cambodian Space Project was supported by the Norwegian Ministry for Foreign Affairs/MFA (grant for cultural exchange with Southern countries/performing arts).
