DataCommons is the association of citizens that wants to recapture the right to self-determination over their own data. During this lab they will build an actual common for a civil data set: the way we use our bikes in cities. They will be experimenting with data from sources like the City of The Hague and Deliveroo. This lab is a collaboration between DataCommons and Waag Society, with introductions by Socrates Schouten and Bas Leerintveld.

We imagine a world with an extra layer of continuous gently buzzing air flight. A fine maze of seamless robotic delivery services. Delivery within reach of our homes and offices. But we still have a couple of blind spots in this vision. Especially on the consumer side. What does the interface of drone – human interaction look like when you’re not the operator, but a hungry student with an appetite for a vegetarian pizza? This lab is part of research by The Future Mobility Network and Wunderpeople to prototype the inner city delivery service by drones, with a specific focus on the handover to the so-called end user. Join us if you’re looking for the latest insights into drone delivery and are looking forward to a very practical day of ideation and prototyping.

We would like to challenge people from all different fields and backgrounds to join our Ocean Floor Engineering lab and find innovative and groundbreaking solutions for the deterioration of ocean systems worldwide. During the lab we challenge you to submerge yourself in one of our three real-life case studies: 1) 3D printing for coral reef protection, 2) Designing a mobile coral lab, and 3) Commercialising oyster beds in the North Sea. In the meantime, speakers, including Enrico Dini (D-Shape), Michaël Laterveer (Blue Linked), Guyon Brenna (Reef Life Restoration) and Melody Saunders Brenna (Reef Life Restoration), will demonstrate novel innovative ways to use engineering for the restoration of our oceans.

This lab brings together field-workers and field-thinkers from the environmental ‘avant-garde’ who work at the level of community, tech and data to design and develop actual applications of autonomous agents in regenerative ecological practice. On June 13th, you can discover and build a unique perspective on tech-enabled autonomous ecologies. The lab is hosted by Klaas Kuitenbrouwer and Sjef van Gaalen.

This edition of Festival Dag in de Branding revolves around ‘spaces and fringes’.
The Matangi Quartet will perform on the ground floor. Through the application of prepared instruments, music boxes and all conceivable sounds that string instruments can produce, a new soundscape is created.

After that, Barbara Ellison engages listeners in a sonic experience using both human voices and computer ‘text-to-speech’ sampled voices as tools and materials to explore and generate Vocal Phantoms through the intensive and extensive use of repetition.

WYSIWYG is turning ten editions strong and somehow they managed not to screen a single (former) Soviet Union film so far during one of their events. As a cinematic language, Soviet cinema is just as important as its Hollywood counterpart and shaped alternative ways in watching and understanding the moving image. Therefore they’ll screen Mikhail Kalatozov 1960’s adventure ‘Letter Never Sent‘ and will tell you more about the various cinematographic methods Russian directors used throughout the years.
