Work in progress: Rob van Hattum, A Portrait

Apr 17, 2010 | Posts, Film

I’m currently preparing for production of a portrait of Rob van Hattum, Film director for Science Programs at VPRO Broadcasting Company and Creative Director at NEMO science center in Amsterdam. I will be directing, filming and editing.

The initial portrait will be short, as it is an assignment from AKV St. Joost Art Academy, which I attend as a film major. I plan to produce a longer version over the summer.

Rob van Hattum has been instrumental in getting serious science on Dutch television for many years and has created -among many other TV and radio programs- Noorderlicht, a TV programme akin to BBC’s Horizon. The short film is expected to be completed in early summer 2010.

An attempt to unblock myself

For many years now, I have enacted violence upon myself by stifling my thoughts and expressions. It is time for change.

A Journey Through Our Cosmic Neighborhood

My dad who is nearly 81 years old, is really into space. I thought it would be fun to write a basic introduction to the cosmos for him.

Just a dream

I’ve been frustrated, thinking of selling my studio. Meanwhile I released an album and tried to find inspiration again. This weekend I recorded “Just A Dream”.

Sampling into Assimil8or

Today I decided to sample some non-electronic instruments into my Eurorack sampler. A tabla, a cabasa, a wooden flute and some pillbottles.

A critic in time

Today I spent some time selecting poems I wrote in my early 20’s for the website. It feels strange to critique myself and my poetry 20-some years later.
