Ethisch Reveil is a relatively new initiative in Havenkwartier Deventer. They host a monthly night of underground bands and artists. On Tuesday April 27, we get Tiny Concept (FR) and Rape Ape (US). Cette Truc (c’est moi) will be in charge of filling in the gaps with audio chunks. Should be fun! More info here.

Marcel Prins booked my Rockin’ Chair for (the opening of) his exhibition with Birgit Speulman and Age Hartsuiker in Kunstcafé Oosterwolde. However, I sadly can’t be present at this event myself… which feels kind of weird. To not be there, while my chair gets some action… Today Marcel came to collect Rockin’ Chair. Supposedly he has also found someone who is willing to try playing it in public. I’m hoping for some decent photo and video footage, so I can enjoy this performance later.
Open: Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st of February, 13:00-18:00 hrs.
Update: Alex Kort played my Rockin’ Chair in Kunstcafé Oosterwolde.

Starting next week I’m working in The Incident Room, an art project initiated and curated by Patrick Mangnus. This first edition takes place in R10, Zwolle. I’m teamed up with video/sound artist Sandrijn van der Horst. Together we have two weeks (January 11-28) to work on a new piece of art in the R10 residency. After that it will be open for exhibition on January 29-31 and February 5-7, 13.00-17.00 hrs. Other participants in this edition are Jeroen Diepenmaat and Sjoukje Gootjes.
Some time ago I went to R10 to check out the place, since I had never been there. It has plenty of facilities and workspace. I aim to use this workperiod mainly for research, since R10 oozes ‘laboratory’ out of every pore. Kind of reminds me of my art academy time. Sandrijn seems to be an interesting and challenging partner in this project. I don’t know him well, but am very familiar with his work, which I selected last year when curating the Ontbos exhibition in CBK Apeldoorn.
At this point I still have no idea what we are going to do next week, but I’m very anxious to find out where this collaboration leads me!
Update 1: I’m documenting our progress on Flickr.
Update 2: There’s going to be a festive finissage on February the 7th with an introduction by Patrick Mangnus and a live performance by Bedhelm and The Stewardess.

Some time ago I had decided not to go to this smashing New Year’s party in Havenkwartier. Instead I was really looking forward to be with my wife and two kids this year. But then it hit me. Since I live literally around the corner, I can do both. After celebrating the new year at home, there’s still plenty of party left to go to.
So I’m going to take a peek anyway. I’ll just be there a bit later.
Yesterday, when the partyhosts of Ticket to the Tropics got wind of this, they put in a last-minute request for one of my tropical dj-sets. I couldn’t resist this tempting offer and am whipping one up right now. Think Copacabana, Calypso, Speed Merengue, Tropicalectronica, Cumbia and Good Vibrations…

Best of both worlds. I can look at a website from a design point of view AND from a technical point of view. I often collaborate with other artists, designers or developers.
