Next Event
MIP closes the year with the fourth event of 2024 on Nov 29th focusing on TRANSFORMATION, followed by a party!
Calling Our Most Interesting Community!
We are optimists, determined to see out 2024 with hope and curiosity filling our vision and ringing in our ears. That’s why our final MIP Studio Session of the year is centred on the theme TRANSFORMATION. To transport you to another dimension, we’re extending the trail experience into a unique musical experience - a journey from isolated stillness to euphoric connectedness.
These are challenging times, and it’s precisely for this reason that we should find time to connect—meeting old friends and perfect strangers alike. We are lucky to have Tash Richards and Amber Poot guide us into this trail.
For the party - Here’s the magic: each musician has nominated their most interesting counterpart musician, who in turn nominates the next. Following a sequence of solo and duet performances and DJ sets, they will take you on an unforgettable musical journey across genres, styles, and extraordinary instrumental skills building into a crescendo. This is more than just a party—it’s a celebration of creativity, connection, and discovery.
Also, we have beer from our lovely sponsor Poesiat en Kater AND there will be dancing. Get your tickets fast for our fourth and final session of the year!
If you want to come to the MIP Studio Session first, buy tickets for the full program at 20 PM (€12,50) and if you want to join for the party later, you can get tickets for after 22:30.

Tash Richards & Amber Boot
Tash Richards is one of the founders of Stretch and Fold in the North of Amsterdam.

It is a surprise what they are planning, but expect a crossover and amazing blend of interactive exercises and intimate talks.
Music trail:
Papi Gaba & Runningman & Kee Priemus & Nikko Axzul
This month Papi Gaba has invited his most interesting musician which is Runningman who plays ‘a raw blend of deep, textured, percussive, UK-infuenced housegrooves combined with a touch of ADHD form his infectious style’ (his own words).
Runningman invited DJ and jazz guitarist Kee Priemus and she reached out to multi-disciplinary artist Nikko Axzul.
We don’t know what is going to happen and in what order, but we assure you that it is going to be a one of a kind evening!

Session #3, Agility
STUSTUSTUDIO
Chrysantenstraat, 20
1031HT Amsterdam Noord, NL
If there is such thing as an eloxir safeguarding against an unpredictable world, it is a mastery of AGILITY.
Swinging with the punches is just a part of modern day living. It's about adapting to constant change, staying resilient, and finding balance amid life's ups and downs. Our capacity to conjur our agile selves often marks the schasm between success and failure in our work, personal health and relationships.
But this is only one, narrow side in thinking of agility. For there is perhaps no greater measure of it than its physicality. Health and agility go hand in hand. A fact that becomes more and more presient as we age.
If there would be one area in which the two worlds meet, our mental and physical agility, it would be in the world of music.
❝
What makes the Clarinet difficult? lt is precisely that it seems so simple. You cannot miss a note. You have no safety net and almost everyone knows it. You can learn the technique, but for me it is about making it more universal; to play it in such a way that everyone is touched.
Principle Clarinetist Concertgebouw, Olivier Patey
Watch Olivier Patey performing here. Catch him at out next event in person.

Session #2, Innovation
In this session, we will delve into four radically different approaches to innovation presented by four distinct speakers and artists each coming at the question, what is INNOVATION, and is it always a good thing?
Marissa Memelink: Artistic Researcher
Human tendency to rely on technology for solving complex issues, known as techno-solutionism, often leads to new problems rather than solutions. Marissa Memelink, an artistic researcher at SETUP, explores this phenomenon through interactive installations and workshops. Join her at The Most Interesting Person to uncover your own techno-solutionist tendencies and examine the societal beliefs behind this behavior. Memelink, a creative researcher and moderator specializing in art, technology, and society, focuses on generative art and develops frameworks for analyzing it. She works at SETUP, a media lab aiming to promote a technology-critical society through art and expertise from diverse fields.
Daniel Simu: circus artist and inventor
Marissa’s Most Interesting Person.
By day you’ll find him juggling hoops, people or fire; by night, working with wood, code and electronics. Driven by an enthusiasm for surprising others, he explores the weird, the quirky, the wacky and the impossible through his artistic performances and installations.
Allard Krijger - Electronic Music Pioneer
Allard Krijger is the most interesting person of Julien Chaptal. Known as FRAKnoise, is a leading figure in electronic music. His career of over two decades has solidified his reputation as an innovator in the field. FRAKnoise is known for his mastery of unconventional instruments like the theremin and Soma Terra, which bring a distinctive quality to his performances.
FRAKnoise challenges traditional music norms by advocating for a more intuitive and creative approach to electronic music. He believes that conventional music notation can hinder innovation and limit the potential of electronic instruments. At an upcoming event, he will delve into this topic to inspire a new perspective on music creation.
FRAKnoise's live performances have wowed audiences worldwide with their intricate layers of sound and rhythm. His upcoming event promises an immersive experience featuring the theremin and Soma Terra, showcasing his unique talent and forward-thinking approach to electronic music.
Let’s visit the dark side of innovation at the Most Interesting Person session #2 at STUSTUSTUDIO in Amsterdam Noord!
