Platform voor Extratonliteit focuses on sonic (and neighbouring) activities that reject distinctions between high and low, exceptional and boring, serious and pop. It strechs the classical paradigms of music (balance, contrast, focus, movement, pattern, proportion, rhythm and unity) and expand them with conceptual, technical and performative principles from other disciplines. The program manifests itself in the form of conferences, performance evenings, radio shows and workshops. At its core is a series of public events where we invite artists, musicians, poets and technicians from in and outside of Rotterdam to demonstrate various phenomenas and engage with space and facilities.
