Deep Seeing Currents

Wed 21 · 09:00 · ARTIS Aquarium · Aquarium · Amsterdam
As you approach Deep Seeing Currents by Olafur Eliasson , you are slowly enveloped by darkness and the sounds of life underwater. Layers of oceanic cacophony – whale songs, rumbling of hydrothermal vents, and human-made noises, among others – surround you, while the vibrations can be felt throughout your entire body, emulating the experience of pressure in the deep sea. Above and around you, lights flash and seem to descend like the hypnotic circulation of marine snow, the organic and inorganic particles essential to life in the deep sea. The immersive sound of Deep seeing currents is brought to life by 4DSOUND . The exhibition is located inside the ARTIS Aquarium and can be visited with a valid ARTIS Park ticket. Tickets are available through the ARTIS website. Opening hours: Wed - Sun, 09:00 - 18.00

Audio-Technica presents Hotaru:Analog:Ambient

Wed 21 · 12:00 · The Stargate · Amsterdam
Audio-Technica and The Stargate have joined up with guest selector Nina Yamada to present Hotaru:Analog:Ambient – an immersive multi-sensory event featuring Audio-Technica’s Hotaru turntable. Launched at Milan Design Week 2025, the Hotaru is the next step in the evolution of analog. The floating turntable's stylus reacts to the messages held deep in the record groove, uniting music and light into a unique experience. Nina Yamada will curate a collection of Japanese minimal, ambient and kanyõ ongaku records to guide the guests deeper into the listening experience, painting a truly one-of-a-kind deep listening scene. Inspired by the delicate glow of the firefly from which the Hotaru takes its name, this event echoes their fleeting beauty in a unique analog experience that will leave a long-lasting impression. As the needle gently touches the record, sound and light emerge, colouring the silence. Guests are invited to stand, sit or lie down in the round, for as much or as little time as they need to deeply connect with the music. Free entry.
