Curating a Symposium for Klik! Animation Festival Amsterdam




Also taking place during my MA, was the curating of a Symposium for Klik!. Tiddo Muda and Marlyn Spaaij once again being my colleagues, since we where asked to curate the Symposium after the program director of the festival (Yvonne van Ulden) had read our MA essays.
The theme of the Klik! festival was science, and besides the screening of animated shorts on this theme, the Symposium brought together animators and scientists to discuss the uses, strengths and weaknesses of animation on behalf of scientific illumination and education.
We have found an interesting group of scholars, scientists and animators, whose lectures, animation screenings and discussions made the Symposium what we hoped it to be.
Along this Symposium Tiddo Muda, Marlyn Spaaij and I wrote a publication for the Symposium, supported by the HKU, edited by Florian Duijsens.

Exhibition commission Eject



During my own graduation year I was part of the commission to design and organize the graduation exhibition. We created the concept of a festival-like exhibition, where the interior and exterior would become one: tents to exhibit in and grass on the floor. Since the exhibition was for the graduation of the whole media department of the HKU (games, films, music, animation and video installations) we called it Eject.
