OTANI NIEUWENHUIZE at work on a rooftop in Ukiha
Last Sunday our first shoot of the new OTANI NIEUWENHUIZE project ORANDA LOCI took place.
Theme of this part of the project is badminton, one of the things brought to Japan by the Dutch during the time of the trading post Dejima, between 1641 and 1859. On a rooftop of a grocery store in Ukiha me and Shinji Otani photographed twins.
Work in progress – scouting locations
Since our new project ORANDA LOCI is about the Genius Loci, the spirit of a place, location is a vital element of it. For our pictures we are scouting locations in the cultural and natural landscape of Kyushu.

Jelle Bouwhuis over The Bubble (Dutch)
Johan Nieuwenhuize – The Bubble
Door Jelle Bouwhuis
“Technologische ontwikkelingen en de impact ervan op de samenleving worden een steeds belangrijker element in mijn werk.
Jelle Bouwhuis on The Bubble
Johan Nieuwenhuize – The Bubble
By Jelle Bouwhuis
“Technological developments and their impact on society are becoming an increasingly important element of my work. How filter bubbles make our online world smaller contrasts sharply with the uninhibited positive ideas about freedom and democracy from the early days of the Internet.”
On display permanently: The Bubble
The Bubble is an algorithmic artwork with 700+ photographs I made based on conversations with students. I worked on it in collaboration with cognition- and datascientist Robin van Emden and 80 students of The Hague University of Applied Sciences.
A text by curator and researcher Jelle Bouwhuis is available at the location of the work
