Planktonium Live Performance at MU Hybrid Art House, Eindhoven, NL with John van Oostrum 2025

Why should we really only wish each other well in January? It can’t hurt to do that a bit more often, throughout the year. That’s why on 6 February we like to look ahead hopefully to the year that has just begun with everyone curious about what MU has to offer in 2025.

Once again firmly supported by the Ministry of OCW, Culture Eindhoven and the Province of Noord-Brabant, we would like to delve a little deeper into our plans for the next four years and raise a glass together to all the art and artists who deserve space, get space and make space, in MU and beyond.

We will close the meeting with a live performance linked to the exhibition Sensing Otherness / Navigating the more-than-human world.

For this, filmmaker Jan van IJken reworks his enchanting film Planktonium into a live version, assisted by artist/musician John van Oostrum. Together, they subtly bring to life the small but oh-so crucial undersea ecosystem of plankton. Van Oostrum, whom we remember from Touki Delphine’s TRANSMISSION that was shown at MU last summer, once again brings an extraordinary home-made instrument for light and sound to make the tiny organisms dance on.
