Midnight Melktapes

During Friday Evenings, we present a programme around one or more artists, a collective or organisation for nine weeks. This spring, we will kick off with a book presentation. Tapes members Sebastien Dessauvage, Koen (Wolfgang) Blauwblomme and Dominique De Groen take you on an exploration of the Midnight Melktapes, a rich archive filled with poetic, audiovisual mixtapes and contributions from guest artists.

Placeholders vrijdag avonden

When the Midnight Melktapes were first conceived in 2014, the concept was simple: a poetic, audiovisual mixtape on a USB-stick. Left unfinished for ten years, it now finally emerges into a very different world. The Tapes themselves have morphed into both a time capsule and a media archive, containing work made and collected over a decade. They include our own work and contributions by guest artists, original and found materials, from artistic creations to intimate personal fragments: poems and spoken word recordings, music and digital collages, video works and 3D art, unreleased side projects and remnants of novels that were never finished, ancient files scraped from hard drives. With its Choose Your Own Adventure folder structure, inviting you to navigate your own way through these files and fragments, it resembles a dream of what the internet could have been: a space of unexpected, haphazard discoveries, far from the predictability of our algorithmic feeds.

On this launch night, contributors to the Tapes will showcase their work: Sebastien Dessauvage, Koen (Wolfgang) Blauwblomme and Dominique De Groen. Projections will give you a taste of the contents of the Tapes, though we will leave most of it for you to discover yourselves. Finally, we will toast to sending these out into the world at last. Come celebrate with us!

Friday Evenings

During Friday Evenings, we present a programme around one or more artists, a collective or organisation for 9 – 10 weeks. We offer local partners a platform. And we highlight artists with whom Kunsthal Gent is currently collaborating. Every Friday night is different: from performance, artist talk and book presentation to conversation, dinner or film screening.
