Art Machines 0.1 - Talk: Joost Rekveld at Sensorlab

CCU and LIMA invite you for an inspiring evening with Joost Rekveld, the Dutch master of media art and experimental film. For years now, Joost has been motivated by the question of what we can learn from a dialogue with machines. In his work, he explores the sensory consequences of systems of his own design, often inspired by forgotten corners in the history of science and technology. The evening is introduced by Sanneke Huisman (LIMA media art platform, followed by Joost his talk in which he takes you through his extensive oeuvre and thereby gives a refreshing perspective on the history of media art and science.

Screening I am a tool of gentrification by Lyubov Matyunina

LIMA and TAAK are happy to invite you to the screening of Lyubov Matyunina's I am a tool of gentrification: Noord.
