The system combines the cultivation of plants and fish. The plants feed off the bacteria in the fish water, and as the water seeps back down it is filtered for the fish. The system is efficient, and there is hardly any water loss.</p> <p>With a strong team of volunteers we work to build and improve the farm. We try to answer questions like: what kind of lettuce would thrive in an Aquaponics system? What is the best way to monitor our vegetables and fish? Which materials are suitable for this installation? </p> <p>Our volunteers give guided tours of the farm every Wednesday and Sunday between 13.00 and 18.00. Reply to this post to tell us when you would like to have a look.</p> <h3>More information</h3> <p>The Aquaponics farm is in <a href="http://www.mediamatic.net/243574/en/mediamatic-fabriek">Mediamatic Fabriek</a>, VOC-kade 10, Amsterdam Oost.

Planten en vissen worden in een aquaponics-installatie samen gekweekt. Uitscheiding van de vissen voedt de planten, en de planten verschonen het water. Er wordt nauwelijks water verspild.</p> <p>Met een hecht team vrijwilligers werken we aan het bouwen en verbeteren van de boerderij. We zoeken naar antwoorden op praktische vragen als: welke slasoorten doen het goed in een aquaponicssysteem? En hoe kunnen we onze groenten en vissen het best monitoren?

Mutamassik will contribute low-slung bits and beats, and The Average Voices and Boeuf Majeur, Amsterdam choirs under the direction of Tristan Knelange, will perform, among other things, two important European works from the 1920s. Entrance with a valid <a href="/club">Club Mediamatic membership.</a> Dinner at 19:00, music at 20:00.</p> <p>After returning from the trenches of WWI, Ernst Toch settled in Weimar to create a number of stunningly modernist works, among which the world's first spoken chorus piece, <em>Geographical Fugue</em>. The Average Voices choir will perform what has affectionately been called 'Weimar Rap', translated into English under the watchful eyes of John Cage and Henry Cowell. </p> <p>Boeuf Majeur, a young choir from Amsterdam, will perform Frank Martin's <em>Mass for Double Choir</em>, the only unaccompanied choral work by the Swiss composer. Written in the 1920s, it wasn't until 1963 and after heavy persuasion that Martin released the piece, which he considered a 'matter between God and myself', to the public. The two choirs, which are both under the direction of Tristan Knelange, will also perform a number of short pieces together. </p> <p>Brooklyn-born, Cairo-based artist Muta­mas­sik mixes afro-beat, breakbeats and hip-hop to create what she calls Arabified swamp music. A pretty good description of her sound which is gloomy without ever losing its drive.

Mediamatic designs aquaponic installations on a Dutch scale. Sustainable mini-nurseries that you build with your colleagues, and take care of together. Craving a green(er) office? Don't hesitate to get in touch.</p> <h3>Custom workshop</h3> <p>In one day you and your colleagues will build your own eco-system from mainly recycled materials. During this day you'll learn everything you need to know about the eco-system and how you can best take care of it. We'll plant herbs, vegetables and fruits, and release the fish into the water. At the end of the day you'll have built a fully functional office nursery. Fill the meeting room with tomatoes, harvest your own lunch. The workshop will take place on your premises. Our Aquaponics Helpdesk will be available (during weekdays) for any questions you might have. Advanced courses are available for those who would like to take their knowledge of this unique eco-system to the next level.</p> <h3>What is Aquaponics?</h3> <p>The Aquaponic Gardening Community describes aquaponics as &quot;the cultivation of fish and plants together in a constructed, recirculating ecosystem utilizing natural bacterial cycles to convert fish waste to plant nutrients. This is an environmentally, friendly, natural food-growing method that harnesses the best attributes of aquaculture and hydroponics, without the need to discard any water or filtrate or add chemical fertilizer.&quot;<br/> The Mediamatic Aquaponics team is currently building an urban oasis based on this eco-friendly system. Our first 4-storey aquaponics tower was exhibited during <a href="/256984">De Etende Mens</a>, an exhibition in the Designhuis, Eindhoven, and during <a href="/254627">Dag van de Architectuur</a> in Amsterdam.</p> <h3>More information</h3> <p>Do you crave a green(er) working environment?

Een snelcursus biologie, loodgieten en klussen met als resultaat een unieke kantoorkwekerij. De workshop wordt bij jullie op locatie gegeven. Wij zorgen voor de materialen, vissen en planten. Onderhoud is eenvoudig en leuk. Voor vragen staat onze Helpdesk stand-by en voor fanatiekelingen zijn er ook advanced workshops beschikbaar. Werk tussen de tomaten, oogst je eigen lunch. </p> <h3>Wat is Aquaponics?</h3> <p>De Aquaponic Gardening Community beschrijft aquaponics als 'het gezamenlijk kweken van vissen en planten in een voortdurend circulerend ecosysteem. Deze methode maakt gebruik van natuurlijke bacteriën om het afval van vissen om te zetten in voedingsstoffen voor planten. Het is een natuurlijk, milieuvriendelijke manier van voedselproductie. Zonder daarbij het water te hoeven verschonen of chemische stoffen te gebruiken.'</p> <p>Het Mediamatic Aquaponics team bouwt momenteel in Amsterdam aan haar eigen stedelijke oase, gebaseerd op deze eco-vriendelijke aanpak. Onze eerste vier verdiepingen tellende aquaponictoren werd tentoongesteld tijdens <a href="/256984">De Etende Mens</a>, een tentoonstelling in het Designhuis, Eindhoven, en tijdens de <a href="/254627">Dag van de Architectuur</a> in Amsterdam.</p> <h3>Meer informatie</h3> <p>Neem contact op om de mogelijkheden te bespreken.

Kids (and smart parents) know the answer: with games! Gamification allows institutions and companies to promote and deepen their activities, resulting in engaged visitors and clients. During this training we will &#039;gamify&#039; two case studies. You will learn the basics of gamification, and we&#039;ll discuss a number of best practices. <a href="http://www.komjeook.org/89320/en/gamification-training-june-7">Get your ticket(s) online</a>.</p> <h2>Gamification</h2> <p>Gamification is the use of game design and mechanisms in non-game contexts and is a hot topic in many fields. When people are rewarded for user activity they tend to stay interested in your product or story. The creative industry is slowly embracing this movement. Enroll for the training and &#039;gamify&#039; two interesting cases. Case one will be about reducing child obesity and the second case will be about releasing tension at work. </p> <p><div><a href="http://www.komjeook.org/89108/en/listening-closely"> <img src="http://fast.mediamatic.nl/f/gtjs/image/718/89108-400-259.jpg" height="259" width="400" alt="Listening closely" title="Listening closely" /> </a></div><div></div><div><p><a title="Vergroot afbeelding - Listening closely - Kom Je Ook" href="http://www.komjeook.org/89108/en/listening-closely">Listening closely</a></p> <span>-</span> <p>During the Gamification training</p></div></p> <h2>Trainers</h2> <p><em>Valerie Alloix</em> is an experienced game developer with a passion for gamification.

We're throwing a party that blends both of these categories. Food, drinks, music, lights, good people, and laughter are generally good party ingredients. We are taking those ingredients and adding: an abandoned factory, a 30ft. t-shirt, paint, brushes, felt tip pens, and your tipsy creativity (creatipsity). So join us after your dreary job, have some snacks, do a dance, drink a drink, paint a 30ft. shirt! We hope to see you there. Music bij DJ's BAM BOE (Sova, Freddy &amp; Dubbs).</p> <h3>More information</h3> <p>Time: 6pm till 2am. Location: <a href="http://www.mediamatic.net/fabriek">Mediamatic Fabriek</a>, VOC-kade 10, Oostenburg Amsterdam. The party costs € 7.50, which includes a valid <a href="/club">Club Mediamatic membership (€5,- for 4 weeks</a>). The first drink is on us.<br/> Buy your ticket <a href="http://www.mediamatic.net/349108/en/pretty-nice-party">here</a></p> <h3>Freezing Favela</h3> <p>Freezing Favela is a temporary city at Mediamatic Fabriek. The space is big, unheated, and the roof leaks. Designers, cooks, and other makers have claimed part of this space as their own. In the Favela you can make tosti's from scratch, paper from cow dung, furniture from cardboard, and cook with ingredients from the aquaponics farm. Favela-citizens give workshops and organize events and meals. We're open every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday from 1pm to 6pm at the very least.</p> - 4.9265823 52.3724143 6 Pretty Nice Party d d ARTEFACT event 1 http://www.mediamatic.net/id/349001 2013-05-14T12:35:20+02:00 Bijeenkomst voor DIY-ouders #3 Zelf kinderopvang organiseren <p>Zet samen met andere ouders je eigen buitenschoolse opvang op in Mediamatic Fabriek.</p> - 4.9265823 52.3724143 6 ARTEFACT event 1
