For a year and a half we were part of Innovatielabs, an initiative by Creative Industries Fund NL and CLICKNL. Researcher Stefanie van Zal has been following four of the collaborations we set up to assess what works well and what doesn’t. The aim of this research was not only to gain insights into the effective factors of these collaborations but also to share these lessons with the rest of the cultural sector. The results of this research are presented at the Dutch Design Week. During this event, we also showcase the work of Anemoon On Fire and Rik Laging: Aquatic Fauna Research Lab (A.F.R.L) Chapter I: Glowing and Growing. Anemoon and Rik have been collaborating for a long time and present a mysterious laboratory at DDW, featuring extraordinary deep-sea creatures that didn’t succumb but adapted to a changing world, along with plastic waste, radiation, and more.

 

On the Innovatielabs website, you can watch an interview with Anemoon and Rik about their collaboration. (English subtitles available)
