Newly launched mobility membership venture Lynk & Co appeals to forward city dwellers in more ways than just one. Keen to connect with this demographic, the company has launched its first club house in Amsterdam two months ago – we talked about the stylish venue in a previous post – and rolled out a rotating programme of events. Lynk & Co has teaming up with Dekmantel, one of the biggest independent electronic music festivals across the planet, to host Dekmantel Connects, a virtual event which not only aims to entertain, but also share knowledge and, as its name already implies, connect artists, music fans, and everyone else missing out on this year’s festival season due to the global pandemic. The programme, running until Dec 23, is free for all to access. The event, primarily held at the Lynk & Co club house, features live DJ sets and a schedule of educational content to teach aspiring artists a thing or two about the music industry. Dekmantel Connects once again presents a varied programme, featuring no less than five workshops, five panel conversations, and three in-depth conversations with veteran artists on topics ranging from grant applications to the future of the music industry, and includes Sandrien and Fafi Abdel Nour, Altin Gün, Nous’klaer and Sjoerd Oberman, and Victor Crezée & Mairo Nawaz.
Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
