Beyond mentoring, ATMs also support logistical and academic coordination by recruiting guest speakers or technical experts, attending major project events like kick-offs and final presentations, reviewing drafts, offering substantive feedback, and ensuring smooth collaboration between students, faculty, and project partners.

SMU Chinese Orchestra premieres a new composition And Beyond in the SMU25 Arts Festival concert
- In the COMMISSIONS concert held at the SOTA Concert Hall, the SMU Chinese Orchestra premiered And Beyond, a new work by local composer Mr Eric Watson, conducted by Mr Quek Ling Kiong. The concert reaffirmed SMU’s long-standing tradition of commissioning local works, a rare initiative for a non-conservatory university. The premiere featured collaborations with guest musicians Ms De Silva Alicia Joyce and Mr Dinh Cao Tue, performing on the Khong Wong Yai and Dan Bau respectively. Alongside the Angklung, these instruments represent the musical traditions of Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia—countries where SMU has established overseas centres. Their inclusion reflects SMU’s dedication to diversity, cross-cultural exchange, meaningful contribution, and the strength that emerges from collaboration. This mirrors SMU’s belief in creating nurturing spaces for every voice to be heard and every talent to shine.
Set on Campus Green, In Sight is a kinetic light installation that ignites the curiosity and imagination of all ages
- The photo featured In Sight, a kinetic light installation in Campus Green that was inspired by Michael Craig-Martin's Bright Idea. It comprised five outlines of lightbulbs uprighted in layered progression, animated in moving lights with changing angles and patterns. The bulbs appeared fragmented, abstract from different perspectives, yet aligned into a single, luminous image from one precise vantage point. The installation formed a metaphor for creativity -- when ideas often need to evolve through layers, shifts, and unexpected connections, coming into clarity only when viewed from the right angle. Through the fusion of light, movement, and perceptual illusion, In Sight prompts viewers to pause and rediscover how a spark of inspiration can illuminate new perspectives. In collaboration with the Singapore Night Festival, the SMU Arts Festival opened on 22 August 2025 with 25 x 25 Exhibition, a multidisciplinary exhibition held at SMU de Suantio Gallery and Campus Green. The result was a vibrant dialogue between generations: a calligraphy piece reimagined through contemporary spoken word; a traditional ink painting reflected through a photographic lens; and a large-scale light installation that transformed Campus Green into an immersive walk-through experience. Visitors included SMU students, staff, alumni, and members of the public, many of whom commented on how the works deepened their understanding of SMU’s commitment to fostering creativity beyond the classroom.
