  1. RE: cosocial.ca/@rhempel/116650230

    For two decades I've been making that same point (below), also specifically for computational/algorithmic art. It's also been a key topic in many of my past workshops. More than just being about performance, data structure literacy (at least awareness of options) can be a powerful tool/help for expressing and actualizing ideas in the first place, especially for interactive situations (where using the right or wrong or no data structure can be a make-or-break in some situations).

    Yet, most of the the time, I felt these efforts to encourage more attention on improving algorithmic literacy in the design/art world have mostly received disinterest or even active pushback (e.g. the classic "to learn how to drive you don't need to know how a combustion engine works" argumentation) etc.

    In one of my roles last year, I was responsible for optimizing the performance of several art pieces by well known, celebrated "algorithmic artists" to allow their pieces to run at least with an "alright" frame rate on the company's chosen Android hardware (Snapdragon 8 based). Oftentimes the given code was extremely naive, unoptimized spaghetti and I managed to achieve 2-8x performance boosts. This is not to brag, but to illustrate the wider problem! If one's supposed expertise & claim to fame is "algorithmic art", then one should also strive a little (more) to become proficient in said medium. Good knowledge of data structures and at least a passing interest in performance & hardware are key attention points towards achieving that (in my view)...

    The RAM and GPU price explosions will likely "encourage" a little more awareness in the future (not just for arty stuff)... Then again, mass slop coding is a strong counter force/movement... 🤷‍♂️

  2. iai-callgrind gives you deterministic, instruction-count benchmarks. The catch: it needs Valgrind, and Valgrind has zero Apple Silicon support.

    Here's how I run them locally on an M-series Mac in a native arm64 container - seccomp trap and all.

  3. A quick tip: don't try to last as long as possible. Pushing too hard spikes cortisol, which hurts your focus instead of helping it. 90 seconds done well is better than 5 minutes done poorly.

    If you stick with this, you should notice sharper afternoon focus without needing any stimulants. Your brain handles it naturally. #Biohacking #PeakPerformance #Optimization #Productivity #Focus #Efficiency #Health #Wellness #Performance #Energy (3/3)

  5. If you only have 15 minutes, grab a small banana with a few almonds instead of skipping food entirely. If you drink coffee, have your espresso about 30 minutes before training for the best fat-burning effect.

    You'll notice stronger performance, less fatigue after training, and faster recovery.

    Exploring the performance implications of different animation strategies

    One of the most common questions around animation performance is whether JS-based animations are slower than CSS-based ones. Should we always strive to use CSS transitions, or is it OK to use JavaScript animation libraries?

  21. Artist to Artist: Ali Chahrour

    Felix Meritis, Saturday, June 13 at 03:30 PM GMT+2

    Diana Al-Halabi & ghenwa abou fayad

    How do you continue working when the reality of war finds itself next to your rehearsal space? What is it like to create art amidst destructive forces? And how does the current situation in Lebanon influence the work of Lebanese artists in The Netherlands? During this Artist to Artist, a collaboration between Felix Meritis and Holland Festival, three Lebanese artists discuss these questions and the importance of sharing stories that often remain in the background.

    Lebanese artist Ali Chahrour is part of Holland Festival with his multidisciplinary dance performance When I Saw the Sea. In his work, he connects personal and collective stories with themes such as love and war. During this Artist to Artist he will be joined in conversation by cross-disciplinary artists Diana Al-Halabi and ghenwa abou fayad.

    Line-up

    Ali Chahrour

    Dancer and choreographer Ali Chahrour (Beirut, 1989) has developed a unique movement language that breaks away from Western codes and models. This language reflects his cultural background and the political, social, and religious context in which he works. In an earlier series of performances, part of his “Death” trilogy, he brought funeral rituals to life, combining tradition with a sharp sense of modernity. He later began a new series centered on the theme of “love,” including Told by My Mother, which was presented at Holland Festival in 2025.

    Chahrour’s work is characterized by a combination of lyrical poetry and intensely intertwined bodies. His performances have been presented at the Festival d’Avignon (2016, 2018, and 2022) as well as at numerous other festivals worldwide.

    Diana Al-Halabi

    Born in Lebanon in 1990, Diana Al-Halabi is a Rotterdam–Beirut–based interdisciplinary artist working primarily with film and painting. Through an intersectional feminist lens, her practice navigates the entanglement of the personal and the political, challenging top-down structures of power — from the patriarchal gaze and institutional violence to bureaucracy, settler colonialism, migration, and visa regimes. Her recent research, “Famine and Hunger Strikes: Decolonizing the Digestive System,” explores the politicization of the digestive system as a form of bottom-up resistance.

    Al-Halabi’s work spans film and painting, with her 2022 film, “The Disaster Cannot Be Contained,” screening at international festivals, including IFFR, and winning Best Short Film in the national competition at the Beirut Shorts International Film Festival. In 2023, she received the IFFR RTM PITCH Award for her short film “The Battle of Empty Stomachs,” which premiered at IFFR 2024, Raindance Film Festival (UK), and Blackstar Film Festival (USA).

    ghenwa (noiré) abou fayad

    ghenwa (noiré) abou fayad is a Lebanese cross-disciplinary artist, performer, and installation practitioner. Their work explores the politics of language, oral history, and repetition through sound, storytelling, and improvisation. Using an electro-acoustic setup, ghenwa plays the bouzouqi, sings, and plays the synths to weave together socio-political narratives, memory, and everyday survival, often treating performance as a living archive shaped by embodied experience.

    Their practice extends into collaborative and pedagogical formats, including projects such as Hacked Orchestra which she initiated then collaborated on with Hackers & Designers (2024) – which , a collaboration with Hackers and Designers culminating in a sonic presentation at the Muziekgebouw, they facilitated the Insurgent Learning Workshop (2024), and later co-lead Voice as Legacy: Tracing the Unwritten (Sonic Acts x SALWA Foundation, 2025).

    Their ongoing sound research uses a dactylo (Arabic typewriter) as an instrument, investigating the gendered history of typing as feminized labor and its sonic potential. At the moment, ghenwa is working on producing their first debut EP entitled ‘daken – sombre’.

  22. Contemporary instrumental music from Brazil by Santos Latif González Trio

    Teatro Munganga, Saturday, July 4 at 07:00 PM GMT+2

    Santos Latif González Trio is a group dedicated to contemporary instrumental music from Brazil, departing from the traditions of choro, samba and música instrumental brasileira, also known as Brazilian Jazz.
    Our members are Tiago Santos (10-string mandolin), Nelson Latif (7-string guitar) and Mariano González (percussion).
    In the group that carries our names, we showcase our original compositions and exploring new possibilities of the instruments we play, which are highly attached to the Brazilian, African and Latin American traditions, but also in constant transformation. Tiago Santos Mandolinist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and musicologist from Ribeirão Preto, Brazil. PhD candidate and member of the UNESCO Chair on Transcultural Music Studies at "Hochschule für Musik FRANZ LISZT" in Weimar, Germany. Tiago has been performing concerts and giving courses and workshops worldwide with performances, compositions, studies, and research for mandolin that mix different backgrounds and elements of Brazilian, Latin American, and other classical musical genres. He has recorded five albums: "Ludicamente" (2023), "Afinidades" (2022), "O Bandolim Polifônico de 10 cordas" (2019), "Nosso Tempo" (2017), and "Chorobossambando" (2013). Cavaquinho and acoustic guitar player Nelson Latif formed his musical identity in the legendary jazz scene of 1980's São Paulo. With roots in choro and jazz, Latif merges Brazilian styles and a classical guitar technique with diverse musical influences. In his melodic phrasing one hears bebop and Brazilian syncopations. As cultural promoter, Nelson Latif has been coordinating educational projects for universities and cultural institutions around the world. Mariano González is a multi-instrumentalist and musicologist from São Paulo, Brazil. His percussion style is all about the expressive potential of single instruments, and seeking the mind-body-instrument connection on any musical style. As a researcher, he is dedicated to percussive music from African and the Latin American diaspora, and has recently defended a PhD dissertation in musicology and linguistics at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, focusing on the drum languages of the Yoruba in Nigeria. As a lecturer, Mariano has worked at the UNESCO Chair on Transcultural Music Studies at the FRANZ-LISZT University of Music in Weimar (Germany), the Utrecht Conservatory HKU (Netherlands) and the TU Delft (Netherlands).

  24. 🎬 Cavia in Concert: The General (1926) with live score by the Joost Buis Trio 🎶 at Nassaukerk

    Filmhuis Cavia, Friday, June 19 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

    After becoming an instant classic with its first two sold out editions, Cavia in Concert, our series of film and music performances organized in the amazing hall of the Nassaukerk in collaboration with Podium Nassau, comes back once again before the summer break.

    In this edition, taking place during the celebrations for the Nassaukerk’s 100th anniversary, we bring you another legendary film from 1926: The General, by Buster Keaton! 

    After initially becoming a bust and a big setback in Keaton’s career, The General has been reevaluated and is now considered one of the most significant films of the silent era.

    Famously described by Orson Welles as "the greatest comedy ever made, the greatest Civil War film ever made, and perhaps the greatest film ever made”, The General tells the story of the Great Locomotive Chase, an episode out of the American Civil War. This contributed to its controversial status, representing an example of American cinema’s fascination with the American Confederacy. Still, the film is universally celebrated as one of the greatest examples of comedy in the history of film.

    The film was chosen by Joost Buis, improvisational trombonist and lap guitarist, who has been at the forefront of Amsterdam’s jazz scene since the 1980s, and who now is among the leading musicians of the Zaal 100’s legendary Jazz Café. And Zaal 100 is exactly where the ensemble who will be performing the film formed. 

    Headed by Joost Buis, legendary trombonist and bandleader who has made his mark in the Amsterdam improvisation scene for the past 40 years, the group is also composed by Kristján Martinsson, who will be at the piano, and Yung-Tuan Ku, at the percussions. Bringing together the mix of structure and improvisation typical of the Amsterdam improvisation and jazz music scene, they are bound to give us the right mood to celebrate the 100 years of Nassaukerk and the whole creative community of the Staatsliedenbuurt.

    All and all, come to church with us and make sure not to miss this event for the ages!


    Tickets: €8 (or Cineville)
    Available for pre-sale HERE.

    The event will NOT take place in Filmhuis Cavia, but in the Nassaukerk: De Wittenkade 111.

    Doors & bar open at 19:15, film starts at 20:00.

  36. Erotic Poetry Night

    Tolhuistuin, Thursday, June 18 at 07:30 PM GMT+2

    By popular demand, Eroticly Yours returns to Paradiso with another Erotic Poetry Night: an evening designed to awaken the senses through poetry, storytelling, music, and performance art, all centered around the erotic.

    From tender to explicit, from fantasy to the everyday, from toys and self-pleasure to burning desire, from dates gone wrong (or wonderfully right), to erotic fashion, kink, fetishes, and slow kisses – the world of the erotic is as rich as it is diverse. Guests are invited to come alone, with friends, or with a date, and experience performances by a wide range of local and international artists offering their unique take on what erotica can mean.

    Paradiso and the organizers believe artists deserve fair pay, and that art should remain accessible. A limited number of solidarity tickets are available for those who wish to attend but cannot currently afford a ticket. These can be requested—no questions asked—by emailing [email protected].
