Design the freestate flag
Design a flag for Vrijstaat AFRI contest!
Citizens of the Afrikaanderwijk are requested to design a flag for the new state AFRI. The winner of the contest will receive a basket filled with authentic Afrikaanderwijk products, worth € 200,-.
In order to vote for the new flag, you will need to become a citizen of AFRI. If you live in the Afrikaanderwijk and/or are affiliated with the Afrikaanderwijk you can become a citizen of AFRI by joining the 'inburgeringscursus' (which is filling in a form handed out on the 6th of October 2012, during the Afrikaandermarket).
You will find more information about the project at the Dutch version of this website (click on Dutch flag). If you are a citizen of the Afrikaanderwijk and would like to participate, but are not able to read Dutch (yet), contact SENSATIONAL MIX at bureau@sensationalmix.nl
The sound of garbage
Harm Goslink Kuiper is a visual artist and musician. He creates (amongst others) instruments of garbage and daily consumer goods. He presented a workshop about sound on the 27th of January. During the workshop he presented his work, explained why he moved from painting to producing instruments, played a song of his most recent CD and created together with the participants a snare instrument of an old wooden box one of the participants brought with her. He gave a lot of practical advise on how to create your own instrument, but most importantly showed an other way of looking ánd listening to things that seem worthless.
