Orgelpark

Opening Concert (Wed. May 29)

The festival opens on Wednesday, May 29, with the concert evening Organ/Body in collaboration with the Orgelpark; an undiscovered institution for many with many unique organs. We present two premieres made especially for, and partly within, the Orgelpark. The fusion between organ sounds, software and electronic music is the focus of the evening, and in what ways the movement of air through the body of the organ pipes can be manipulated and experienced in new ways within the architecture of the Orgelpark.

BIMHUIS

Concert: Memory Vessels | Thurs. May 30

For the second concert night of the festival, we are joining forces with the BIMHUIS in Amsterdam. Het BIMHUIS is a well-known venue for jazz and improvised music next to the IJ River. The venue itself is a modern building designed specifically for hosting performances, with excellent acoustics and a intimate atmosphere. On May 30, join us for an extraordinary exploration of intense emotions, memories, and how they acquire a presence in bodies, under the title Memory Vessels.

Garage Noord

Club Night (Sat. June 1)

Another Gedempt Hamerkanaal resident, Garage Noord is a car repair shop transformed into an Amsterdam nightlife pillar. It’s an intimate space where you can dance from Friday to Monday, enjoy some Roti in between sets, or just pop by for a game of chess. On Saturday June 1 FIBER will take over Garage Noord for an evening of deep, mind-expanding electronic and dancefloor vibes. We will present a lineup of club artists at Garage Noord, consisting of contemporary blends of different electronic music styles from different parts of the world.

de Brakke Grond

Exhibition, performances & Context programme (Thurs. 30 till Sun. June 16)

De Brakke Grond is a cultural centre in the heart of Amsterdam. It functions as a stage for new Flemish artists. It started in 1981 and is financially supported by the Flemish government. The main focus is on promoting the cultural identity of Flanders and promoting Flemish-Dutch cooperation. In collaboration with FIBER, STUK and the Brakke Grond, we will present Neighbouring Frequencies: a programme with a focus on the development and presentation of sound art from the Netherlands and Belgium.

Het Slotervaart

Installation BODIES & SUBWOOFERS

Het Slotervaart, situated in Amsterdam Nieuw-West, is currently undergoing an exciting transformation, where both the building itself and the surrounding organizations are being repurposed. Together, they lay the foundation for De Plantijn, a future vibrant district in Amsterdam. During the FIBER Festival, visitors can experience the sound installation "BODIES AND SUBWOOFERS (B.A.S.)" by artist Stefanie Egedy within the historic shooting range. This installation explores interactions between sub-bass, infrasound, bodies, and subwoofers, offering a unique sensory experience.

Bar Theo

Bar Session (Fri. May 31)

Bar Theo, at the Rozengracht in Amsterdam, is named after Theo Ruiter, who once ran a café in the same premises and is remembered as a hero in the Jordaan. Because he rescued a German officer from the water during the war, he was in the favour of the occupying forces. Ruiter used this position to free countless Amsterdammers from German hands. After the war, his Café Theo Ruiter became a place where poets, musicians and artists such as J.C. Bloem and Remco Campert gathered. In line with the building's history, today's Bar Theo offers a stage to creative people.
