A propos

Heritage Studio aims to create a research, music and design practise artist research platform for WANA diaspora artists to explore their cultural heritage in a digital age and give wings to their ideas as at the same time professionalizing their practices and talent development via cross-border long-term collaborations.

20:00 - 22:00 talk 'Preserving and rebuilding cultural heritage in a digital age'
22:00 - 05:00 club night w/ MoJakob, Derby Saga (live), Sara Dziri, Cheb Runner (live) & Glitter
An event by (A)WAKE, supported by Creative Industries Fund, SENA, Fonds voor Podiumkunsten, Ableton, Darna & Beursschouwburg
With the Rotterdam club/space MONO as its home base, (A)WAKE provides a space for the in-between voices with multiple cultural backgrounds. The direction of (A)WAKE is driven by questioning the emancipatory potential of the digital world in favor of equal access and mutual cultural exchange between WANA and West Europe. Through the focus on these two regions they aim towards creative and critical approaches which challenge the greater North-South power dynamics through art and digital culture.
