_mediaclub: Rehearsal of the Victory Day Gig

_mediaclub: Rehearsal of the Victory Day Gig

Rehearsal of the Victory Day Gig is developed from online meetings that helped _mediaclub stay together during lockdown and, later, during Russia’s war against Ukraine. When Max Robotov joined the Ukrainian Army, while others were separated by cities, countries, and time zones, this format became a way to remain close and continue working. Delays, glitches, and interruptions that once made collective music-making almost impossible became the structure of the work. The performance is built around Max’s voice from the front line, his commands, and the attempt to play together through unstable connection and distance.

The _mediaklub group is based on the idea of an open visual and sound environment, the creation of which, at any stage, can be joined by members of the Ukrainian community of new media – Photinus. Thus, at different times musicians, artists, programmers, and, by way of exception, the robot GAIA joined the group.

Rijksakademie

Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten

For over 150 years, the Rijksakademie has been invested in artistic development and forward-thinking art. Departing from the vision that artists play an essential role in an open and innovative society, we create the conditions for artists to thrive, and to keep reimagining the transformative power of art.


In our residency programme we house an artist community that is highly international, multi-disciplinary, experimental and critically engaged. Since 1992, the residency has been hosted into the Kavallerie-Kazerne (cavalry barracks) on the Sarphatistraat. Workshops specialised in paint, printing, ceramics, mould making, metal, electronics, wood and (digital) media such as photography, video, film and sound have prominent places in the former stables ever since. The building also houses our public library and an extensive (historical) art collection.

Festival FAQ

ADE Festival tickets are sold individually by the festival event organizers, but you’ll also be able to purchase them through the ticket links on the event pages on our website here.

Not to worry! Make sure to contact the event (or their ticketing provider) you are visiting as soon as possible with as many details about your order; name, email address, amount of tickets, etc. Once they've recovered your order, the tickets can be resent to your email.

Need help to find your event's contact details? Message us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.

Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.

Please double-check the promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!

Yes, the ADE Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events.

Be aware though that there are over 1,200 events during ADE that you can enter with the Pro Pass wristband and that ADE cannot guarantee access. There is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for Pro Pass holders. This means for some of the more crowded events you have to arrive early. Once capacity is reached, we will go over in a full-for-now policy. The festival event organizer will decide when and if more people are allowed to go in.

The ADE Pro Pass is the perfect fit if you are planning on enjoying the combination of day and night events. If you want guaranteed access to a particular festival event, we advise you to get a single festival ticket instead.

We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.

Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.
