  • Codarts Research Festival, That Will Take Place on Thursday 11 March 2021
    Dear reader, A wholehearted welcome to the fifth edition of the Codarts Research Festival, that will take place on Thursday 11 March 2021. Due to the continuing covid-19 pandemic this will be an online event, with live streamed presentations in ZOOM 1, and online presentations in ZOOM 2. This year's edition has a distinct RASL*) -flavor, as the theme is ‘Social engagement and the Arts.’ As the ‘traditional’ jobs in the arts are under increased pressure, and our society is faced by seemingly insurmountable problems, like climate change and pollution, but also social disintegration and loneliness, many artists feel the need to reposition themselves and look for ways to contribute. The covid-19 pandemic has made these problems even more acute. The Research Festival will address these issues, with (inter)national speakers from the world of dance, music and theater, next to a variety of research presentations from Codarts students and staff. And you are invited to caste your vote for the audience award during the annual Master research competition. *) RASL is the Rotterdam Arts and Science Lab. An intense collaboration between Codarts Rotterdam, Arts & Culture Studies (EUR), Erasmus University College (EUR) and Willem de Kooning Academy, with the aim to examine the relationship between the arts and society in a transdisciplinary way. If you haven’t done so already, we kindly request you to register for the Festival using this link: https://codarts.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIoc-ytpz0tGt2-wNg97GnMHAcBsoMGKw6A Upon registration you will receive a confirmation and the ZOOM link plus password that gives you access to the Festival on the day itself.

  • Herefore Damage, for the Festivals and the Entire Ecosystem of Suppliers
    Content 22019019 Members map 2 Dutch Live Music Venues Venues: events and visits 3 and Festivals Venues: work(ers) 4 Facts & Figures Venues: income and expenditure 5 Festivals: events and visits 6 Members list 7 VNPF information 8 This publication provides insight into the facts and figures for the year 2019 of 53 of the 59 music venues, and of all 52 festivals, that are members of the VNPF in October 2020. The year 2019 was a record year for the music venues and music festivals in every respect. Never before did the venues and festivals programme so many events and artist performances, and attracted so much audience, as in 2019. Never before did so many employees work so many hours to make all of this possible. This resulted in both artistic and financial records. At the time of the publication (October 2020) of these 2019 annual figures, we are still in the middle of a pandemic. COVID-19 is perhaps the biggest spoiler in the history of the live music sector in the Netherlands. Mid March 2020, all music venues had to close their doors abruptly. Events and festivals were banned. No activities could be organized by order of the government. The effects of this are still devastating: artists can no longer perform, workers no longer have a job, the audience can enjoy less live music. A great deal of damage is suffered in our experience economy. The Dutch government sees that - especially now - the cultural sector is important and, together with local governments, has generously supported parts of the live music sector during this crisis.

I am in the second year of my apprenticeship for a merchant of forwarding and logistic services at Julius Leber School in Frankfurt-am-Main. The Bolloré Logistics Germany is my training company with its seat at the International Airport Frankfurt-am-Main. According to the apprenticeship plan I was supposed to accomplish several weeks of training in a forwarding/logistic company abroad. PREPARATION Since the German company where I work, is a part of a French investment and industrial holding group which is represented in many countries all over the world, I could choose which country to go to where Bolloré has its representative offices. Of course it makes sense to consider in which country I could get advantages for my residence from the point of obtaining certain occupational skills and new experiences. I have chosen to go to Bolloré Logistics Netherlands in Rotterdam, where office deals mainly with a sea freight business. The Bolloré Logistics in Frankfurt offers forwarding and logistics services in the air freight business, nevertheless other modes of transports are included into my final examination. That’s why I stopped my choice on Rotterdam. The choice of the company depended also on the possible expenses which I could face. Of course the money earned in the apprenticeship time is not enough for a long-term residence abroad.

As the institute of e-research of the Erasmus University Rotterdam we favor an approach of oral history that is multidisciplinary and encourages a fruitful dialogue between humanists, archivists and computer scientists. Having been involved in the project Croatian Memories has enriched our insights regarding the specific character of narratives that deal with war and repression. The possibility of sharing these narratives online has many implications for the way the material is collected, structured and presented, not only for the project, but also for the narrators. It is no coincidence that the 20th century has been characterized as the ‘The era of the Witness’ by Annette Wieviorka and the 21st has been labeled ‘The End of forgetting’ by Jeffrey Rosen. Technology has given us better tools to bear witness and to preserve our memories. Yet, what the implications for our understanding of these accounts are, is still a point open to discussion. This conference intends to stimulate this discussion and to solidify our knowledge on the impact of experiences of conflict and trauma that have been recorded and conveyed in digital form. With the experience, insights and reflections to be shared during the conference we hope that the plans for the use of collections of this type, both in scholarly contexts and beyond, can be brought to a new level of maturity.

  • JAARVERSLAG 2017 STICHTING VRIENDEN VAN CODARTS Februari 2018
    vrienden van codarts JAARVERSLAG 2017 STICHTING VRIENDEN VAN CODARTS Februari 2018 In 2017 kwam het bestuur van de Stichting Vrienden van Codarts regelmatig bij elkaar. Mijke Loeven kreeg een nieuwe baan bij het Bimhuis in Amsterdam en moest om die reden helaas het bestuur van de Vrienden van Codarts verlaten. Voorlopig bestaat het bestuur daarom slechts uit drie leden. In 2018 zal hier verandering in worden aangebracht. Ook Okke Westdorp vertrok naar Amsterdam. Hij is inmiddels als adviseur opgevolgd door hoofd Jazz, Pop en Wereldmuziek, Wessel Coppes. De samenstelling van het bestuur zag er gedurende het jaar als volgt uit: Drs. Pieter ten Bosch - voorzitter Bc Luc Beurskens - penningmeester Drs. Alfons van Gulick - bestuurslid Mijke Loeven - bestuurslid (tot 1 september 2017) Okke Westdorp, MSc, MMus - adviseur (tot 1 september 2017) Wessel Coppes, MA - adviseur (vanaf 1 september 2017) Bovendien wordt de Stichting sinds medio 2016 ondersteund door Monica van Steen. Een ingrijpende verandering voor het bestuur was het vertrek van Marianne Spoel die met pensioen is gegaan. Zij heeft een bijzonder lange tijd de Vrienden van Codarts met zeer veel toewijding en inzet ondersteund, waar voor wij haar zeer veel dank verschuldigd zijn. Zij is opgevolgd door Annemiek Manni, die inmiddels zeer voortvarend is begonnen. Ook wordt het Bestuur bijzonder nuttig ondersteund door Karlijn Verschoor hoofd van de communicatieafdeling Zoals vorig jaar reeds vermeld heeft het College van Bestuur van Codarts de Stichting Vrienden van Codarts benaderd met het plan om in nauwe samenwerking te streven naar een Talent Investment Grant fund van waaruit studenten kunnen worden ondersteund die financiële problemen hebben om hun studie te voltooien.
