Last month we presented 𝙁𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙙𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 at @mediamatic_ : a collaboration that felt like a natural meeting of worlds. Seated on rafts, you faced canvases weathered in tidal clay, rust, and wrack. Onto these surfaces already shaped by water, we projected footage from the Amsterdam canals, the Oosterdok, the Dutch coast, transformed into the sensation of looking up from the seabed. A spatial soundscape of hydrophone recordings surrounded the space. The city, navigated by sea chart, continues: changed and slowly overgrown. Thank you to Mediamatic, and to everyone who came and floated with us. We hope to show this again. 🌊

At Rewire 2025, French sound artist Sébastien Robert (@_sebastien_r_) and Dutch media artist Mark IJzerman (@markijzerman) presented the Dutch premiere of 'Another Deep' — a powerful A/V work exploring the imminent threat of deep-sea mining in Norway’s Svalbard region.⁠
⁠
Weaving together research, field recordings, and archival material, the piece offers a layered sonic and visual portrait of one of the world’s northernmost inhabited areas. Set against the backdrop of geopolitical tension and ecological collapse, 'Another Deep' examines the often unseen forces reshaping our planet.⁠

🔵 𝙒𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙 (𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙇𝙤𝙫𝙚) is the outcome of my residency at @pier2air! More river/estuary-dripping-microorganism-works are to come!

𝙒𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙 (𝙏𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙇𝙤𝙫𝙚) is the first in a series of works examining rivers and their (former) estuaries. This installation explores how water connects all living systems by following a single drop. Water descends through transparent plates—representing its passage through time, ecosystems, and bodies—before landing on specially treated fabrics. As water meets fabric, colours transform, mirroring environmental changes: from industrial contamination to ongoing restoration efforts.
Surrounding visitors is a soundscape of underwater recordings from the Love River—the clicking of shrimp, the movement of fish, the subtle vibrations of current—making audible what typically remains beneath the surface.
The installation reveals that every drop contains multitudes—microscopic life, chemical histories, and future possibilities. Just as the Love River has flowed through Kaohsiung’s changing identity, water flows through all bodies, carrying both our environmental choices and their consequences.

This work is realised in the context of Kaohsiung’s PIER-2 Artist in Residence programme. Special thanks to PIER-2 Art Center @pier2art , Professor Yuan-Pin Chang (National Sun Yat-Sen University @nsysu_cms ), Jari Deelstra, the team of PlanktoScope and Sébastien Robert @_sebastien_r_ .

Mark IJzerman is one of our featured artists for re:natura 06 – Hexapoda. We are looking forward to his contribution.

Mark IJzerman is an interdisciplinary artist who investigates ecological themes through the use of technology. His work gives voice to the more-than-human world, exploring planetary processes such as eroding biodiversity and the impacts of warming waters. Through installations and audiovisual performances, IJzerman blends fieldwork, artistic research, and collaboration with experts from diverse fields, including biology, astronomy, and ecology. His practice incorporates living organisms, custom-built software, and film, creating dialogues that challenge the boundaries between technology and ecology. Influenced by speculative fiction, IJzerman examines the tensions between technological advancement and environmental degradation. His projects often feature interactive or live elements, where living ecosystems and digital media come together. This interplay prompts audiences to rethink their ecological relationships.

Mark IJzerman has exhibited and performed his work in various venues and festivals, including Sonic Acts (NL), V2_ (NL), Chroniques Biennal (FR), De Lakenhal (NL), iii (NL), W139 (NL), Meakusma (BE), Le Guess Who? (NL), Rewire (NL), FIBER Festival (NL), LIMA (NL), Mapping Possibilities (EG), Mapping Festival (CH), EYE Filmmuseum (NL), Next Nature Network (NL), the International Space Station (outer space, via Moon Gallery), amongst others.

Some pictures of last month playing 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘔𝘢𝘱𝘴 at @rewirefestival. It’s refreshing to rely solely on sound after having done so many A/V performances in recent years! Thanks to all who came out on the Sunday evening, at the end of what was an excellent edition of Rewire! Happy to have been a part of it.

Flounder Maps is out with @anteriorinsula and @le_pacifique_records.

Not two, not four, but six limbs move in rhythm, scatter in chaos, march in unity. With antennae raised and wings poised, the insect world teems with sound, form, and ingenuity.

For re:natura #06 – Hexapoda, we invite you to explore the vast and varied realm of insects through sound. Hexapoda – the scientific term for six-legged arthropods – offers a rich terrain for sonic exploration: from the faint subterranean rustle of Gryllotalpa gryllotalpa (the European mole cricket) and the soil-turning toil of Anoplotrupes stercorosus (the dor beetle), to the sky-darkening migrations of Danaus plexippus (the monarch butterfly) and the swarming cacophonies of Schistocerca gregaria (the desert locust).

We are calling for works that respond to the insect as biological marvel, ecological force, metaphor, and mystery. Dive deep into the buzzing labyrinth: topics might include colony behavior, parasitism, mimicry, metamorphosis, swarm intelligence, extinction, pollination, or the evolutionary genius of adaptation.

The more specific, the better. Get inspired by iridescent carapaces, pheromonal communication, formic architecture, cicada choruses, mosquito drones.

Join us and experience how @marjolijnboterenbrood and @markijzerman transform the Sluisdeurenloods into an immersive underwater landscape, celebrating the connection between our residency practice and the living waters that surround Mediamatic.

Friday 27 March / 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.
Saturday 28 March / 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Floodlight explores the future of Amsterdam’s waters and brings together image, sound in a spatial experience. Central to the installation are ‘overgrown’ canvases that originated during Marjolijn’s earlier projects. These canvases, bearing signs of life, are both medium and material: a surface for moving images. Together with the spatial sound experience, they create a speculative, immersive experience. The audience is taken on a journey into possible futures of a dynamic ecosystem that grows, changes and displaces.

Mediamatic Biotoop,
Dijksgracht 6, Amsterdam

We got so distracted by the present that we almost forgot about the recent past. So let’s look back.

Mark IJzerman’s release show at Les Ateliers Claus was an absolute highlight for us. We hope you enjoyed the evening as much as we did!

Thanks to Les Ateliers Claus for their outstanding hospitality and special thanks to @leslie.pinknoise for making live sound seem effortless.

Happy to share that 𝚃𝚒𝚍𝚊𝚕 𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚙𝚞𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐 has received support from @stimuleringsfonds through their Grounding the Cloud program.

In the coming year, 𝚃𝚒𝚍𝚊𝚕 𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚙𝚞𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐 will reimagine digital infrastructures as a part of living ecosystems. By powering the small community-based server with the tides, it slowly becomes an artificial reef. We’ll be rethinking our continuously-connected worlds, and instead letting it operate with the tides.
It also researches how a ‘Tidal Commons’ can be created by ecosystems care that earns server space. On the way there, we will experiment with generating power with tidal waves, storing this in saltwater batteries, and with incorporating biohybrid sensors.
Eventually a small community will create a ‘Tidal Magazine’, showing artistic observations and using sensordata from the server in different ways.
I will be working with TU/e Innovation Space, @fiberfestival and the wonderful @sunzoolee will provide me with guidance.
