Artistic Director, Collectief Imprography
Miri is a performer and imprographer who has left a distinct mark on Amsterdam’s artistic landscape. Known for her fearless cross-disciplinary collaborations with leading figures in visual art, music, science, poetry, theater, and film, she is sought after for her intuitive presence and improvisational depth. She is the founder of Collectief Imprography and IMDL series, a platform for real-time performance, where her work explores the composition of the unknown through intuitive choices, ephemeral imagery, and the interplay of body, sound, light, and objects. Most recently, she co-directed the film Ineffable Shape with filmmaker Emilia Tapprest, and was officially selected for the New Dutch section of Cinedans film Festival 2025.

Producer, Collectief Imprography
Youn is a researcher and maker exploring how artistic practice combined with scientific methods shapes the development of an inner epistemic compass. She works with mixed methodologies—self-experimentation, practice-based and participatory research—and creates materials for iterative inquiry through improvisation. Her published research examines creative interventions such as storytelling, analogy, and game design for knowledge integration in multidisciplinary teams, with a particular focus on conversational modulation. Her game-based interventions have been used and tested by students at Dutch universities, and one of her works was recently invited to the student category of 2025 International Educational Game Competition in Norway.

Wen Chin is a Taiwanese artist based in The Hague, working at the intersection of performance art, sound, and technological innovation. Her practice explores how music is produced and experienced, often through self-invented instruments such as her signature sugar instrument. As a co-founder of the artist-run platform iii (Instrument Inventors Initiative), she contributes to the development of Art, Science & Technology through curatorial work, education, and community engagement. Wen Chin’s performances and installations have been presented internationally, including at Transmediale (DE), STRP Festival (NL), and the Moscow Young Art Biennale (RU). Her work is collaborative, experimental, and deeply rooted in the cultivation of fragile ecosystems — both artistic and social. Find out more on Wen Chin’s website.
Grond, Amsterdam
Marc is an independent musician and sound artist whose work spans from raw acoustic experimentation to refined digital composition. With a background in classical guitar, recorder, and electric bass, their journey into sound began with everyday objects and evolved into complex multi-track productions. Their music is often described as atmospheric — a soundtrack to an imaginary film — inviting listeners into spaces beyond language, where feeling and sensing take precedence. A graduate of the School for New Dance Development, they have created sound-scores for dance and theatre, blending music, ambient sound, and spoken word. Their compositions shape mood, rhythm, and narrative, offering a sonic pulse that drives performance forward. Find out more on Marc’s website.
