Mastermundo is an intimate, active and informal gathering where interesting people share ideas, stories, passions or something that they love/hate/do/did/know/care about/obsess over with a curious, engaged, interesting audience. The 2007 edition still followed the rules of a traditional conference (speaker, stage, audience), the 2008 edition won’t.
MM08 will radically unfollow those rules, to change it from monologue to dialogue into a true 720° experience, tickling multiple senses. This event is a partnership with the Picnic crossmedia week in Amsterdam that overlaps with TodaysArt that same week. Regarding speakers we have looked for people with a high level of interestingness, with preferably previously unconferenced or stories that previously have never been shared by people that speak at conferences often. So only truth, curiosity, diversity and no selling, no corporate bullshit. Stories that show the people behind great works. Together with the willingness and openness to share their personal stories and could also be open to take part in workshops and social interaction - so not only for a 20 minute talk.
MM08 will bring the speakers and their audience from Amsterdam to The Hague, outside stages and conference rooms. It will kick-off in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, where you can enjoy art while listening to the speakers stories. From there MM08 will move by train to The Hague. While traveling another two speakers will share their story. From there, it will travel to the Spuiplein where it will blend into
the TodayArt festival.
