Simple Like Anger Tour!
2023-05-26 19:00 - 2023-05-27 22:00 (Europe/Amsterdam) | The Space, Coloniastraat 12, Rotterdam, 3024TB, Netherlands
The Space is happy to welcome the presentation tour of ‘Something Simple Like Anger!’
This Friday (26/05) Genchi, Frigato and Nettleship will define and redefine the boundaries between new wave, punk, noise and research, rooted in contemporary classical music. They use free improvisation as a method for mapping and investigating their trio-mediated exploration. Expect an explosive and abstract creative use of the aforementioned musical idioms.
This concert is part of the ‘Something Simple Like Anger’, presenting the last solo record of Pietro Frigato ‘Something Simple Like Anger ’.
Hear a bit of the record bellow:

Alfian and Bintang are fusing their musical prowess as the Kretek Beats duo. This Friday the 17th, we are very happy to share dinner and host this exciting performance by two of the most talented musicians to have graced The Space.
Bintang Manira Manik is an Indonesian versatile musician. His unique choice of sound creates a portal between the past, present and future combining musical chants with acoustic traditional instruments and electronic sound. He is focusing on various hand percussion techniques and combines them with ancient vocal techniques from India and Tuva such as Dhrupad and different types of throat singing.
Indonesian cellist and composer Alfian Emir Adytia is recognized not just for his borderless performance, but also “guts in his playing” (Den Haag Centraal Net). He moves seamlessly across a plethora of genres and disciplines which bridged classical, avant-garde, improvisation, electronics, collaboration with dance, paintings and films. Emir, his middle and artist name, has appeared as a soloist and cellist in classical and contemporary music ensemble in Asia and Europe. An alumni of Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, he performs regularly on major stages for new music, classical, jazz and cello festivals.
Thanks to a lot of people offering a hand, we will be sharing a vegetarian dinner. Arrive early for the best bits and drop us a message if you are happy to help with the cooking!
The Space Playground is our Friday take-it-over meetup, always donation-based. See you at coloniastraat 12, Rotterdam.

Untold Stories of Communal Living
2023-02-26 14:30 - 16:30, 2023-02-12 14:30 - 16:30 | CORPO, Wolpharetstraat 53, Rotterdam, 3082BL, Netherlands
Eco-villages, co-living, tiny houses settlements, flat-sharing communes, squatter houses, collectives, housing cooperatives… So-called communal living is evermore popular – or evermore necessary. Although it comes in all shapes and sizes, communal living often challenges the mainstream individual way of life and offers fascinating housing alternatives.
With the housing crisis running rampant and rental prices skyrocketing, a diversity of citizens in urban and rural areas are turning towards new and alternative forms of living together.
The Untold Stories of Communal Living is a series of conversations with members and builders of intentional living communities. The conversations are designed as spaces where curious minds can discover the core principles of communal living and the different realities that the term encompasses. We believe that personal stories and experiences are a powerful way to share knowledge.
The aim of the Untold Stories of Communal Living conversations is to empower citizens to think critically about the current housing model, question their needs and desires and wonder if living in a community is something they’d like to contribute to or advocate for.
The conversations will be held in Rotterdam, at The Space (Coloniastraat 12) and CORPO (Wolpharetstraat 53) alternatively.

Community Gathering
2023-02-17 19:00 - 22:00 | The Space, Coloniastraat 12, Rotterdam, 3024TB, Netherlands
What value do we see in the community? What do you need from us to be an active part of The Space? Let’s build upon what is already happening and turn ideas into action.
In this community gathering we’d like to unravel different perspectives and work towards growing and flourishing The Space.
Are you a neighbor, oldcomer, antiquated with The Space or someone looking for a place to experiment?
Let’s have an open conversation about The Space community over home made pierogi dinner.

Do you want to know more about Commons and which communities you are a part of? Then this is the course for you. During the sessions, you will learn more about the history of Commons and how they evolved.
Whilst discussing our views on this topic, we will be making some nice bottles of limoncello. At the end of the course, you will realize that the current society is too focused on the individual. We lost the sense of a community somewhere along the way.
The sessions will be held at the Space, Coloniastraat 12, from 20:00 – 22:00.
