For this event, a specific manner of presentation has been developed that creates an unexpected, direct relationship between audience and artists. The programme consists of a series of short performances without intermissions, and the stage as the traditional domain of the artist is often traded in for a more integral position closer to the audience, or one that uses the specific characteristics of the performance space.

With Pan Sonic, Talibam!, Knalpot, Wlbert Bulsink and Thomas Myrmel, Lunapark, Andre Avelas Octet, Yu Tao, Sensational and Spectre, Huba de Graaff, Amsterdams Bach Consort, Los Siquicos Litoralenos, Jan-Bas Bollen, Robin Hayward and Martijn Tellinga, Steve Shaw. And with works of Luigi Nono, Brian Eno, Aphex Twin and others
