We are excited to present the upcoming exhibition at V2_: [Up]loaded Bodies. While technology blurs the horizon between the virtual and the real, the bodies stick with their materiality. Featuring the work of six artists: Paula Maya Strunden, Martinus Suijkerbuijk & Øystein Fjeldbo, Marie-Luce Nadal, Špela Petrič, and Marnix De Nijs.

Now in residency at V2_: Nabil Aniss , a Moroccan artist based in Brussels, is working with moving images. During the residency at V2_, his research focuses on the impacts of technology. Viewing technology as a political institution that affects and harms diasporic bodies, he incorporates North African ontologies, particularly the Gnawa Brotherhood in Morocco. This group is known for its rich traditions and offers a unique perspective on the concept of the virtual. Aniss is exploring the transition to a transindividual state in virtual reality and the suffering it entails, aiming to create moving images that reflect this transformation.

V2_, Lab for the Unstable Media officially launched the publication Destructive Circuits. A book about the appropriation of everyday technologies in the construction of improvised explosive devices (IEDs), based on Dani Ploeger’s research at V2_Lab for the Unstable Media. Over the past four years, artist and V2_ Fellow Dani Ploeger has examined the design and construction of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) with reappropriated and hacked everyday digital technologies. The research combined archival investigation, critical inquiry and practice-based artistic exploration to gain new perspectives on the ways the development of these devices is intertwined with globalized techno-consumerism and media politics. The four year research is captured in this publication Destructive Circuits, A Machine Archaeology of Improvised Explosive Devices which includes essays, many photos, an interview with Dani Ploeger and work descriptions.

Both the Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie and the Gemeente Rotterdam have again expressed their confidence in V2_ and given a positive advice for our plans for 2025-2028. This means we are able to continue developing experiments at the intersection of art, technology and society, supporting makers and organizing exciting events. Intersectional Technology will be the overarching theme that connects our activities. The City of Rotterdam is positive about our plans, and, for example, the ways in which we seek connection in the city. A quote from their advice: "V2_ makes Rotterdam into a national and international breeding ground for experimental media and digital innovation." The committee of the Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie sees V2_ as a leading institute in national and international context, rates the artistic content of our proposal as good, and thinks the theme Intersectional Technology is interesting and relevant. It writes that V2_, like the other institutions that continue to be funded, manage to constantly innovate and thus maintain urgency. We cannot but be very pleased with those words and the continued confidence in our program. With the support from the Stimuleringsfonds and the city of Rotterdam we will make room for experimentation, formulate new ideas on technologies, give artists, designers and makers opportunities to develop new work, and we will be able to open our Groundfloor often for exhibitions, workshops, lectures, try-outs, discussions, and other events where publics and makers can meet. We're looking forward to it!

Next Wednesday, June 26, we welcome you to join our conversation about XR during the XR matinee at LantarenVenster. Together with Realities In Transition, we’ve invited Natasha Greenhalgh, Christopher Salter, Mihael Giba and Alexandra GERARD as speakers. The rise of extended reality (XR) technologies, which combine virtual, augmented, and mixed reality, is changing how we experience digital content. XR's impact is clear in education, healthcare, industry, and culture, blending data with the physical environment. While XR offers opportunities for creatives and artists in content creation and storytelling, it also raises issues such as sustainability, ethics, data privacy, and unequal access to technology.
