about

affinity group™ is a creative studio founded in 1994. works across sound, moving image, pedagogy, spatial design, and ecology. treats infrastructure as practice—domains registered before projects begin, portals not platforms.

the work develops through collaboration rather than independent authorship. applies dj methodology across media: listening to the listening of the audience, cross-fading between forms, creating durational experience. pattern recognition as insurgent storytelling.

operating principle: the list is the practice. all projects treated equally regardless of scale or completion. work ranges from club nights to exhibitions, films to pedagogical experiments, always asking how gathering becomes transformation.

based between amsterdam and arnhem. partner organisations include het nieuwe instituut, sandberg instituut, stedelijk museum, sonic acts, paradiso, art school maa, bimhuis, engage festival, exit festival, plan b festival, city of amsterdam, and others across the nordics and the balkans, the caribbean and latin america, and australia.
