Party: Amsterdam, Mediamatic Post CS

White Nights

insomnia party (Bigger 5)

This event was inspired by the White Nights occurring in northern countries at the end of June, when it never gets dark. This natural phenomenon influences the mind, changing perception of our most basic categories as DAY and NIGHT, sleeping and being awake.

A special insomnia video program was shown. It was curated by Maria Korosteleva from St. Petersburg with works by Viktor Alimpiev, Vladimir Bystrov, Factory of Found Clothes (Gluklya & Zaplya), Elena Nasanen, Pekka Sassi, Alli Savolainen.

22.30 - 24.00
