From immigrants who took European classical music to the first composers with their own American sound – and from minimal music from Philip Glass to bluegrass, negro spirituals, and pop music. Tom Trapp writes a new work especially for the NJSO and Mascha van Nieuwkerk on cello. An American journey.
PXL, Amsterdam Light Festival, December 15, Paradiso Amsterdam
A wonderland of light and beats.
Paradiso becomes a dance temple of light. On the music of Japanese techno legend Ken Ishii, local heroes and many other artists, as many as 20 different VJs and light artists illuminate the light.

“Maxavision Revisited” The Peter Rubin Collection, VJ performance, February 15, Eye Film Museum, Amsterdam
Very excited to re-enact a VJ performance of Peter Rubin, legendary and pioneer in the VJ scene. For this project, we have decided to focus on Rubin’s VJ work in the 1980’s and 1990’s, as we see it as the core of this collection, and assess the overlaps between his film and VJ practice. Colleagues at VeeJays.com have always had a warm friendship with Peter Rubin as he left him a part of his VHS material. Veejays. com joined forces with Eye film institute to archive his work. At the end of this project, I shall give a VJ performance with VHS alongside my dearest VJ VISH and the VJ Jedi Daan Nolen.
