Give @sickhouse-nl.bsky.social a home! 🏡 My super cool friends in Enschede have finally gotten the keys to a permanent place after an involuntary nomadic life. And of course nothing comes easy in the cultural world. Everything needs to be renovated and there is no money. Help them out by donating!

Nastia and I hosted our post-chaos knowledge-meets-airhorn quiz at many places, but The Ministry of Education, Culture and Science was a first last Thursday. ⚡
During IS HET KUNST OF MAG HET WEG? we quizzed the audience on artists who turned websites, surveillance footage and memes into art pieces.
Ars Electronica was last week, and it was a blast. Model Collapse was visited bij 9000 people!
Thank you Tetem for the incredible production - as well as Telemagic's Cyanne van den Houten and Ymer Marinus.

Waarom is de gemeentelijke bewakingscamera onze "Big Brother-vijand", maar hangen we massaal slimme deurbellen op?
