Artist Collective and Project Space
Last December the try out performance of ‘Magnetoceptia – Maria de’ Medici and Maria Stuart’ for ‘Klankvorm Presents Mechanism’ was happening in our project space. Check out the video below!
Magnetoceptia is a series of sound performances and installations around wearable antennas and a collaboration between Helicopter’s resident Dewi de Vree (NL) and Patrizia Ruthensteiner (AT). https://magnetoceptia.wordpress.com/
Thursday 21 February an evening with music and art at Helicopter with an exhibition by Samman Padrees and live music by Petronn Sphene, Slaylor Moon and The Sunshine Lounge.
As from the start of March (or as soon after as possible), we at Helicopter are inviting a like-minded artist to share with us our studio-space in Moerwijk (The Hague). We exist as a collective since 2015 in a former school
In our building we have approximately 10 private working spaces, a project space, a yard, a shared kitchen and a small music room. The project space and the school yard are used for our public program and for short try outs. Get a better impression of our activities by checking our website: http://helicopter.studio/
We are offering a +-15 m2 individual studio in the second floor, with natural light and its own connected storage space (please see the photos). Due to the available studio being wall to wall with other working spaces, it is unsuited for noisy work, but the project space and the music room are bookable for any kind of tests.
Rent: 50 per month (incl all energy costs and high-speed internet). If you are interested please send us a short text about yourself and what would your addition to Helicopter be, together with a link to your website or online presence/pdf per email with the subject ‘Open Call Studio’ to:
stichtinghelicopter@gmail.com
Deadline: 31st of January 2019
Selected candidates will be invited shortly to see the space and to meet us for an interview, over coffee.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
The Helicopter team.
Saturday November 3 // 19.30 – 23.30

Momentum Lost
Torn between opposites, momentum lost syphons calmness from chaos while melody and noise collide to create drone based ambient music.
