The Hmm @ Tolhuistuin

Memes, GIFs, and endless streams of TikTok videos. Our digital lives are often saturated with visual culture, but there is so much more that makes up our internet ecosystem. In 2022, around 650 million new tweets were posted on a daily basis and it’s estimated that each day 100 billion messages are sent via WhatsApp. Podcast listeners make up almost 465 million people around the world, and we haven’t even started to talk about music streaming services and online radio. During tonight’s event we’ll be joined by researchers, artists, designers, and makers who will take us through the world of non-visual internet culture. With our eight speakers we’ll explore alt-text as poetry, radio gardens, generative podcasts, and much more on Wednesday April 19 at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam.

Lieven Heeremans has helped us put together a very special program as our guest curator for the evening. Lieven is a creative producer and editor specialised in audio, and the co-founder of the Podcastnetwerk.
