Welcome to Kunstavond Radio! With commissioned audio work by local artists, interviews, behind the scene stories, and music. The Kunstavond Radio was envisioned as a different Kunstavond, a digital version of our Friday openings. Instead of you, our listeners and public, visiting us; we wanted to visit you! The 9 episodes are hosted by CBK Rotterdam, MAMA, V2_, WORM Rotterdam, Kunstinstituut Melly, and TENT Rotterdam.
In the eighth Episode of Kunstavond Radio:
TENT presents: Geo Wyeth will perform an excerpt from their ongoing stank poetry stew, Muck Studies Dept. Spoken from the point of view of a fake city agent, whose job it is to wade through low lying waters in the Dutch landscape, ‘looking for stars out of what stinks.’
Visit TENT and Shimmer to see and hear more from the Muck Studies Dept.
MAMA presents a showcase of new design research and mixed media duo Liminal Vision (consisting of Sxmbra ["Sombra"] and nvisible studio), and in particular their worldbuilding project Zhouwei Network ["Djowey Network"]. The mix provides a glimpse into the three possible societies of the future: Dolphin Waves, Dragonfly and Project Gecko, and the "liminal realm" from which we can reflect on the collective and individual drives shaping the future.

Episode 5: TENT & MAMA
In the fifth Episode of Kunstavond Radio:
How do we want to live? What alternatives are there to dominant forms of ownership and market-driven housing policies, at a time when space is becoming scarcer and more expensive and citizens are being pushed out of their homes? Fucking Good Art is an editorial art project by Robert Hamelijnck and Nienke Terpsma, which revolves around oral history, counterculture, self-organization, and DIT-do it together. With this 30-minute introduction, FGA will digitally open the exhibition at TENT!
In the past year, we have all learned some new vocabulary. From guilt-tripping, to gaslighting, from love bombing to blame-shifting, techniques of emotional manipulation became easily digestible in bite-sized social media posts and tik-tok videos. Popular culture from movies to music has been propagating what is now described as narcissistic behavior. This evening MAMA will chronicle your average toxic relationship through exploring some of these terms and their effects through popular music.
