Performances: start at 19:00
For SAND SONGS a group af artists is invited to imagine this landscape as if it is a musical instrument, played by the natural elements and by human intervention. The artists developed performances and musical compositions especially for the landscape of the Zandmotor. In a series of short and longer interventions, they make use of sound, light, the wind, water flow and the sand in new and inventive ways. Flying a kite becomes a new way to make electronic music; home made pulse jet motors generate a composition on the scale of a landscape; there are kinetic wind and light sculptures; a soundwalk guides you along as you walk blindfolded, and you can take part in a musical treasure hunt, searching for sounding objects buried in the sand.

ARTSCIENCE INTERFACULTY
ROYAL ACADEMY OF ART
https://elementslabblog.wordpress.com
Starting September 2015 until May 2016 Satellietgroep engages with lectors, students and experts to enhance the scope of artistic fieldwork on the Zandmotor as part of the Interfaculty ArtScience program.
ArtScience offers an interdisciplinary bachelor’s and master’s programme that fosters curiosity driven research as an approach for the making of art. The Elements is an outside coastal lab situated along the North Sea at the Zandmotor south of The Hague. What does it mean to work in a dynamic intertidal environment, where the tides are dictating time and seasons are close to our skin? The lab has a phenomenologist approach, stimulates students to play, wander, explore and focus on elements in their own way, where also their own sensorial body in relation to this dynamic landscape can be considered as an element.

PUBLIC EXPEDITION ZANDMOTOR#5: CINEMARE
LABORATORY FOR MICROCLIMATES & ONKRUIDENIER
Location: Zandmotor, near Argusmast
Directions: http://www.dezandmotor.nl/nl-NL/bezoekers/route-naar-de-zandmotor/
Dresscode: Outdoor
Satellietgroep and Laboratory for Microclimates (LfM) cordially invite you to the first open air pop-up CineMare at the Zandmotor. The Climate Rescue Unit of LfM is turned into a mobile Cinema. Before screening of the cinematographic impression by LfM you are invited to enjoy a taste of the coast specially selected and prepared with coastal ingredients by Jonmar van Vlijmen, Onkruidenier. LfM performed extensive artistic research and present at CineMare an unusual perpective of the Zandmotor, filmed from the sea and from within the sea that surrounds, shapes and transforms the Zandmotor, as Building with Nature. Artist Annechien Meier and filmmaker Gert-Jan Gerlach have combined their expertises in the Laboratory of Microclimates. A microclimate is a small area which differs from its surrounding environment. On the scale of the Dutch coastline the Zandmotor can be perceived as a microclimate. A new landscaped, uncultivated coast where the initial flora and fauna cautiously re-settle.The Laboratory of Microclimates aims to activate people's perceptions about their immediate social, ecological environment and the climate in general through installations, performances and visual media.

BREAKING LIGHT#2
BERNDNAUT SMILDE DURING TODAYSART 2015 FESTIVAL
Satellietgroep and TodaysArt cordially invite you to experience Breaking Light#2 by Berndnaut Smilde at Scheveningen. The appearance aims to be efemeral, questioning our surrounding and position as a viewer. Being at the right place and time. During his Zandmotor residency with Satellietgroep Smilde looked into ways of imposing a natural phenomenon onto the surroundings. He is interested in the artificial aspect, the interference on the location, the meaning we project onto weather phenomena and the images created after them. During his residency Smilde continued to work on the idea of refracting the light of a lighthouse in order to project a rainbow onto the landscape. Curated by Satellietgroep for TodaysArt, Smilde aims to open the curtains on the city side of the lighthouse for a short moment so he can compose ‘Breaking Light#2’ on Scheveningen. The lighting rhythm that the lighthouse produces belongs to Scheveningen as an historic and temporal icon. By making use of a prism the artist temporarily changes the function of a lighthouse of just being a beacon.
Exactly 50 years ago on the 25th of September 1965, a large scale multimedia open-air art manifestation was planned on the Scheveningse Pier by the radical and revolutionary art movement ZERO. This event never took place. Today, 50 years later, TodaysArt presents a festival, inspired by ZERO, with contemporary artists.
