Dutch sound artist and composer Casimir Geelhoed will present the premiere of Deviations, followed by the Swedish composers Maria W Horn and Mats Erlandsson.

On May 30, join us at Bimhuis for an extraordinary exploration of intense emotions, memories, and how they acquire a presence in bodies, under the title Memory Vessels. Pyur (Sophie Schnell) will present her second release, “Lucid Anarchy”; a personal and emotional sonic journal filled with pulsating electronic soundscape that is both minimalist in form and rich in emotional depth. The second act of this evening will be HULUBALANG, the latest solo project by Aditya Surya Taruna.

The third concert night with the title Liminal Being, taking place at the Brakke Grond, is dedicated to the fusion of natural and synthetic spaces, bodies and the audiovisual aesthetics this produces. Two performances by Nexcyia (Live) and LOREM (Live AV) take you on an immersive journey that leads through themes of otherness, exploring lived or synthetic identity while questioning what makes or defines our human limits.
