Lumasol Live Nerds on Stage Mar 27, 2014
Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Rotterdam



Lumalive is a visual show where we draw with light and create stunning visuals again following the PIPS:lab philosophy of no pre-recorded material and where all the technical manipulation is done live on stage. For these performances PIPS:lab create a great and musically inspired show, however we always end the set by handing out lights and letting the audience draw for a while to create the visuals. Normally these shows are combined with our own DJ's from Rednosedistrikt, but we could also collaborate with local DJ's.

Potator POLYJAM party Mar 29, 2014
PIPS:lab, Amsterdam



The Potator is the latest invention of PIPS:lab. The Potator makes it possible to paint in 3D with visual peels of reality, by combining the qualities of a vegetable peeler with that of a brush. The handy tool scans everything that appaers in its visual range; objects, textures or backgrounds - thereby always aware of its own position. With the photographical strips the user of the Potator can paint  spatially or sculpt virtually. The visual output manifests itself as a photo or augmented reality: reality functions as paint and canvas at the same time. The Potator brings together painting, sculpting and movement, and challenges its users to shape reality…

DieSpace 3.0 Mar 07, 2014
Oldenburgisches Staatstheater, Oldenburg, Germany



What do you want to do when you’re dead?

Hyves, Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, LinkedIn – it’s almost a full-time job keeping up with all these online communities, updating your profile, sending messages and uploading your latest best photos. And now tech-theatre group PiPS:lab wants us to join another one: DieSpace. There is one prerequisite though: you have to be dead to join. Because of the fast ‘greyification’ of our society, the number of people dying will be increasing rapidly. And dead people don’t have a place to socialize yet… PiPS:lab jumped at this great business opportunity and created DieSpace: “the first active internet community for the diseased”.

Each visitor of their show will get a free DieSpace light account to start out with. So from now on, there’s only one thing to fear after death: whether or not you’ll make enough friends on DieSpace. / Annelies Termeer

The proportional amount of elderly people (65+) in the world will increase dramatically in the near future. This cause of events is what PIPS:lab call Greyification. And in it they see an enormous possibility for commercial self-enrichment.

Thus they create DieSpace.nl: the first internet community for those in the Afterlife.

With granny’s skateboarding on walking frames, musical wheelchairs, many laptops, camera’s and light sensors PIPS:lab presents an interactive and song soaked show about life after death. 

You have a death wish but are hesitant to pursue your dream? With DieSpace you can leave your life and loved ones behind with complete peace of mind!

Co-produced by Melkweg-Paradiso Productiehuis

DieSpace is supported by the Fonds voor Amateurkunst en Podiumkunsten, Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunsten, Prins Bernhard Cultuur Fonds and VSB Fonds

Yvonne Jan 29, 2014
Theater ins Blau, Leiden



With little rituals Daan celebrates his love for Yvonne. He puts her in a doll house, covers the table with her dishes and wears her clothes. It's the little things that are important to him.

But in the outside world Daan misses this spell. Nobody sees Yvonne like he does. What Daan finds disturbing is that no one talks about their own domestic happiness, which Daan is sure the whole world is about.
 
To address this issue Daan employs the technological arsenal of his multi-media group PIPS: lab. A crazed rotary dryer, instantly remixed video clips, a laser show and much more. Meanwhile, he sings self-written evergreens like 'Sokkenbollen' and 'Ik doe graag de was voor jou'. Finally Daan even invites his musical friends to shout his love for the domestic from the rooftops.
'Yvonne' is a mercilessly performed charm offensive in the theatre. Daan van West directs the eyes of the audience inwards, to the love that dwells there.

first halfhalf painting in PIPSlab

Together with Thomas Bratzke, we created the new art discipline half/half  paintings. These paintings are partly for real and partly in augmented reality. Looking at the painting you can see the craftmanship of the painter, if you keep your iPad in front of it, a second virtual layer appears. We can describe it, but you should actually see it for yourself! Check out the video in pics and media.

What do you want to do when you’re dead?

Hyves, Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, LinkedIn – it’s almost a full-time job keeping up with all these online communities, updating your profile, sending messages and uploading your latest best photos. And now tech-theatre group PiPS:lab wants us to join another one: DieSpace. There is one prerequisite though: you have to be dead to join. Because of the fast ‘greyification’ of our society, the number of people dying will be increasing rapidly. And dead people don’t have a place to socialize yet… PiPS:lab jumped at this great business opportunity and created DieSpace: “the first active internet community for the diseased”.

Each visitor of their show will get a free DieSpace light account to start out with. So from now on, there’s only one thing to fear after death: whether or not you’ll make enough friends on DieSpace. / Annelies Termeer

The proportional amount of elderly people (65+) in the world will increase dramatically in the near future. This cause of events is what PIPS:lab call Greyification. And in it they see an enormous possibility for commercial self-enrichment.

Thus they create DieSpace.nl: the first internet community for those in the Afterlife.

Social Fiction Aug 09-13, 2013
Parade, Amsterdam

photo: Szilvi Toth

Social Fiction is an experience where media technology is combined with live performing arts. Music and theatre are blending with augmented reality in front of an audience that participates as aviator, becomes the color palette of 3d objects or is scanned as the visual material of an imaginary landscape. The creation of objects, virtual creatures, aircrafts and anything else you can imagine becomes a ritual. Instead of theatrical scenes, Social Fiction is a sequence of acts and actions filled with funky music and a solo on recorder.

A live text message dialogue in space falls poetically line-by-line to the ground and forms a pile of characters, words and sentences. Becoming meaningless.

Social Fiction is a frantic search to translate the transience and impermanence of online information, networks and friendships into contemporary theatre. We believe it’s time to connect and shift between realities. See you in the lands of calibration and beyond…

DieSpace 3.0 Nov 16, 2012
Plaza Futura, Eindhoven



What do you want to do when you’re dead?

Hyves, Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, LinkedIn – it’s almost a full-time job keeping up with all these online communities, updating your profile, sending messages and uploading your latest best photos. And now tech-theatre group PiPS:lab wants us to join another one: DieSpace. There is one prerequisite though: you have to be dead to join. Because of the fast ‘greyification’ of our society, the number of people dying will be increasing rapidly. And dead people don’t have a place to socialize yet… PiPS:lab jumped at this great business opportunity and created DieSpace: “the first active internet community for the diseased”.

Each visitor of their show will get a free DieSpace light account to start out with. So from now on, there’s only one thing to fear after death: whether or not you’ll make enough friends on DieSpace. / Annelies Termeer

The proportional amount of elderly people (65+) in the world will increase dramatically in the near future. This cause of events is what PIPS:lab call Greyification. And in it they see an enormous possibility for commercial self-enrichment.

Thus they create DieSpace.nl: the first internet community for those in the Afterlife.

With granny’s skateboarding on walking frames, musical wheelchairs, many laptops, camera’s and light sensors PIPS:lab presents an interactive and song soaked show about life after death. 

You have a death wish but are hesitant to pursue your dream? With DieSpace you can leave your life and loved ones behind with complete peace of mind!

Co-produced by Melkweg-Paradiso Productiehuis

DieSpace is supported by the Fonds voor Amateurkunst en Podiumkunsten, Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunsten, Prins Bernhard Cultuur Fonds and VSB Fonds

Potator Nov 03 - Jan 13, 2012
Gorcums Museum, Gorinchem



The Potator is the latest invention of PIPS:lab. The Potator makes it possible to paint in 3D with visual peels of reality, by combining the qualities of a vegetable peeler with that of a brush. The handy tool scans everything that appaers in its visual range; objects, textures or backgrounds - thereby always aware of its own position. With the photographical strips the user of the Potator can paint  spatially or sculpt virtually. The visual output manifests itself as a photo or augmented reality: reality functions as paint and canvas at the same time. The Potator brings together painting, sculpting and movement, and challenges its users to shape reality…
