Activities

Our activities traverse a myriad of places. Through spaces, workshops, and site visits, we aim to experiment with and execute various creative and research activities throughout the year. What you see here is but a snapshot of what we do.

Remise

Amsterdam: Event and Studio Facility

Remise Cultural Studio is a facility located in Amsterdam-Oost and is an Urban Resort Space. The studio space aims to host a variety of cultural programming activities over time. These will include work presentations for a small (by invitation only) audience and larger exhibitions aimed at public outreach (mostly free of charge).

Urban Resort Amsterdam is a non-profit organisation dedicated to transforming vacant buildings into affordable workspaces and cultural hubs in Amsterdam. Since its founding in 2008, Urban Resort has created spaces for artists, entrepreneurs, and social initiatives, fostering a vibrant and diverse community across the city. Urban Resort prioritises sustainability, social impact, and local engagement, supporting projects that benefit Amsterdam’s cultural and social landscape while preventing gentrification.

TIAI - Translating into AI

"Translating into AI" is a collaboration with Music Therapy researchers and AI scholars, and focuses on exploring and understanding the vast impacts of artificial intelligence on society, culture, and human experiences. This activity aims to explore the gaps between machine and human, and how the gap can potentially impact society and our futures. It starts with asking critical questions.

As AI technology advances at an unprecedented pace, the need for a nuanced and more international understanding of its implications on everyday lives becomes crucial. Our mission is to connect the world of AI and machine learning with real-life global and cross-cultural contexts and challenges, emphasising both the technological potential and the societal impacts of these tools.

To spread awareness and foster responsible AI usage, we collaborate with educational institutions and build short (remote or hybrid) courses or intensives. The project has a long term ambition to work closely with educational and research partners from around the globe and to make invisible (artistic) impacts visible. We raise awareness around AI's role in health, digital culture, human rights and beyond. In 2023, we facilitated an international scouting study around Artificial Intelligence- a critical analysis of the relation between humans and machines. AI for what?

In this explorative project, we work together with global experts and collect case-studies and stories from the Global South. Our activities cover a wide range of topics, including:

• The role of AI in arts and music therapy;
• Digital identity formation and emerging digital cultures;
• Ethical and social dimensions of AI applications in healthcare, human rights, and more.

Playing with the (H)arts

The Hague: two-Day workshop and certified course

This open two-day certified course with Saffier groep aims to inspire and educate participants interested in how music therapy, arts-based interventions and creative interactions can be understood and practiced in the domain of mental health and general social wellbeing.

Researchers, artistist and practicioners emerge themselves in a two-day educational and experiential program and explore what music therapy is (with theory and a body of academic knowledge) in clinical settings, and how social and artistic interventions give room for care, human expressions and connections beyond existing social norms and pre-conceived ideas of what it means ‘to be yourself, ‘to be together’, ‘to share emotions’, ‘to express yourself’, ‘to play together’, ‘to learn from each other’, 'to care'

Printed Matter’s Art Book Fairs

New York & Los Angeles: Book Fair Exhibitor

Printed Matter’s NY and LA Art Book Fairs are the leading international gathering for the distribution of artists’ books, celebrating art publishing and the community in which it’s fostered. As a foundation, we have supported Werkplaats Typografie participants by supporting their ideas and creative endeavours through a variety of self-publishing initiatives. These group-led projects have accumulated a wide array of directions: a fruit stand, a personality test, a collector, a billboard and an invitation as 'printed outcomes'

EOTYS

Werkplaats Typographie: End of the Year Show

The end-of-the-year show is a group-led exhibition organized by Werkplaats Typografie participants. Each edition takes on unique approaches to how the work is brought together and shown, shaped by the ideas and responses of the current group. Without a predetermined format, the process often leads to unexpected ways to exhibit and experience work, whether at a bar, in storage, or abroad.
