practicum 06a

the perfect hangout space for musicians, artists and the public

During the six weeks that followed Mediamatic's exhibition space hosted the N Collective, an international network of artists, experimental musicians and composers. Especially for this purpose visual artist James Beckett, and musicians Koen Nutters and Morten J. Olsen built a modular installation including an open podium, an editing room, a practise studio, a music shop and a minibar/restaurant.

Opening performance 5 February at 8 pm featuring the N Collective and Louise Baduel.

The exhibition Practicum 06a showed what usually remains unseen. A growing number of talented musicians, choreographers and artists is investigating the relationship of sound and music with our tactile environment. Using all possible kinds of instruments ranging from computers and almost antique tube lights to kitchen appliances and more traditional instruments they created beautiful music. With Practicum 06a the makers put this marginal and somewhat obscure scene in the center of attention and invited the spectator in.
