Lysergic is an audiovisual artist working in projection mapping, reactive lighting, spatial sound and music production — building rooms that pull people together, not apart.
Lysergic is my artist name. I work as an audiovisual artist across projection mapping, reactive lighting, spatial sound and music production — building environments that pull people together rather than apart, a deliberate inversion of how most technology operates.
I have a long history at Ruigoord — building projection mapping installations in the church, designing the visual environments for Wiltgroei and other parties held in the church and around the village. Beyond Ruigoord, my work has been shown at festivals including Berlin Atonal, where the intersection of experimental electronic music and immersive visual art is the central concern.
I live in De Punt, where I'm building a fully self-sustainable house — land, animals, and a workshop for designing audiovisual art. The same impulse that drives the installations runs through the house: build the room you want to live in, with your own hands, using what's around you.
Sól is a new direction: moving from projection (light on surfaces) to sculpture (light as object), and from reactive visuals (responding to a performer) to participatory interaction (responding to the audience itself). The core question stays the same — can technology bring people closer together instead of pushing them apart?
For the physical build of Sól, I'm working with kikvors, a collective of makers, programmers and performers active across the Netherlands, who will support fabrication, install and the opening-night performance.
From projection on surfaces → light as a held object.
From reactive (one performer) → participatory (the whole crowd).
Same question, different room: how do people choose to gather?
A self-organised group representing different artists in and around Amsterdam. We roll up to unexpected urban places — parks, underpasses, edges of canals — with a vintage cargo bike rigged for sound.
Mostly vinyl, sometimes live sets with hardware. We play the obscure.
