Mapping for Change

On 6, 8 and 9 july Mediamatic organizes Map Fest. The event brings together kindred spirits to explore, create, define and oppose maps. Map Fest will be divided over three nights and shows that mapping can change your view of the world. There will be a wide variety of speakers, amongst others Annelys de Vet, Christian Nold, Jan Rothuizen, Theo Deutinger and Esther Polak.

The second night, 'Mapping for Clarity' is about making sense of data. Abstract sets of numbers are transformed into fluctuating graphs and beautiful visualizations. Power structures and traditional hierarchies are uncovered and defied. Mapping makes the intangible world around us tangible, and influences the way we experience, use and create space. Joining us tonight are: Merijn Oudenampsen, Richard Rogers, De Geuzen and Catalogtree.
