A new illustration for Hard//Hoofd. Siri Beerends wrote a great article titled ‘Gekunstelde Echtheid’. In the digital age, we’re desperately looking for authenticity. However, this authenticity results into something just as constructed and fake. The only solution lies in ‘real spontanity.’

Editorial for Ukrant about Perusall, an application that is meant to improve ‘close reading skills of students’, but a lot of students have the feeling ‘being watched’ while reading, because of all the information the app records while students read texts.

A spread from the booklet 'Nacht 85: 86: 87: 88', created together with Jan Hamstra and Megan de Vos from our Knetterijs collective for Theater Bremen. It was used in the theatre play 'Leben' directed by Frank Abt. The booklet was projected on stage, used by the actors during the play as a prop and sold to the audience afterwards.

Editorial illustration for Ukrant. The management of Rijksuniversiteit Groningen has become less and less transparent through the years, because the managers are afraid of too much resistance against new plans. However, this lack of transparency leads to a lot of criticism, and induced a culture where employees and students feel not represented by their managers.
