A film project initiated by Stijn
Verhoeff. The film explores the imagination and activism. We
filmed and recorded sound at locations such as Moddergat,
Beetsterzwaag, the NAM blockade bij Code
Rood in Delftzijl and in and around the Hambacher Forest, where
activists are living in tree houses to protect the forest.
This project is inspired by the book 'Joyful Militancy' by carla
bergman and Nick Montgomery, the writings and lectures of Andreas
Malm, the actions by Code Rood
and Ende Gelände, and the
occupation of the Hambacher
Forest.
ANSAGE ENDE has won the Award for 'Best Experimental Film' at Rome
Independent Cinema Festival 2019.

An eight channel sound installation consisting of megaphones,
resonating oil drums, garbage and radios that was built around ‘the
little signal house’ on Terschelling. The piece - consisting of two
female voices, electromagnetic signals and field recordings from the
‘bird island’ Griend - reflects on climate destruction. The work was
made in collaboration with technician / psychiatrist / philosopher
Olle Kruijt and artist / writer Stijn
Verhoeff. The project was commisioned by Oerol
and Natuurmonumenten and started off with a 3 day residency on the
bird island Griend. A video report from Omrop Fryslân can be seen down
here.
We are working on a record of the piece.
With the voices of Jeanne-Marie Knops and Caroline Ruigrok.

Audiovisual narration project in which passages from Finnegans Wake
by James Joyce are performed through words, sounds and images. Above
you can see a video registration of the very first performance we
made. The project started as a collaboration between Joycean / artist
Mariana Lanari
and me, when we were invited by the American editor Derek Pyle to make
a musical interpretation of the first and the last chapter of 'The
Wake' for his Waywords
and Meansigns project. This led to an audiovisual performance in
collaboration with Katinka de
Jonge.
The aether is full of radiomagnetic waves. Wifi, mobile telephony,
radio stations, yet also the electromagnetic waves of distant comets
float through the air around us. BEACON is an installation performance
in which the aether is scanned for all kinds of signals. The found
signals are channeled into an ongoing cosmic composition.
BEACON is a collaboration with Olle Kruijt. More info on the BEACON
web site.
BEACON is generously supported by Creative Industries Fund NL. With
the help and support of STEIM, Overtoon, Instruments Make Play and De
Ruimte.
