“Cloud computing” has become the key component of today’s digital landscape. "The Cloud" suggests something immaterial, light, abstract, and placeless: data floating through the air. But this image overshadows the material reality of our digital habits: deep-sea internet cables, resource guzzling server farms, precious metals mined to produce chips and more “stuff” to make up what we now call “the cloud”. The tangible “stuff” that connects computing to everyday reality is largely owned, governed and designed by corporate big tech companies that make their decisions based on profit maximisation.

How can we bring sustainability, social equity, and democracy to the center of how these everyday infrastructures are built, developed, and maintained? Can we make self-hosting more accessible? Can we imagine alternative internet structures? Can we bring "the Cloud" back down to earth?

These questions are at the heart of the HDSC2026 Public Program: Clouds to Commons!

HDSC2026 runs from July 13 to 23 with an intensive hands-on program together with a group of 30+ participants. The public program aims to contextualise the Summer Camp and open up the reflection and processes of its hands-on trajectory to a wider audience. If you are curious about H&D's activities but never joined any, this is a great starting point. Join us for talks, performances, a field trip, a meal, and more, let's connect, start conversations, deconstruct and re-imagine "the Cloud"!

'''Accessibility:'''
* The various events are taking place in NDSM, at the H&D Studio and NDSM Theatre.

“Cloud computing” has become the key component of today’s digital landscape. "The Cloud" suggests something immaterial, light, abstract, and placeless: data floating through the air. But this image overshadows the material reality of our digital habits: deep-sea internet cables, resource guzzling server farms, precious metals mined to produce chips and more “stuff” to make up what we now call “the cloud”. The tangible “stuff” that connects computing to everyday reality is largely owned, governed and designed by corporate big tech companies that make their decisions based on profit maximisation.

'''Server tempeh''' is a project by yeast.computer and explores fermentation through residual data server heat. For its tempeh they work with Dutch heirloom beans, instead of the common soybean. In collaboration with Boonzaak, they are developing fermentation boxes that can be connected to a server's cooling system, re-routing the residual heat for the tempeh fermentation process. Tempeh requires a steady temperature of 30 degrees celsius during 30-40 hours for optimal fermentation, a temperature that is only artificially possible in The Netherlands. Rather than producing a carbon footprint akin to greenhouses, server tempeh uses the heat that is produced by heavy computing for fermentation. The fermentation boxes are installed at partner institutions that operate in-house servers, after which the tempeh is offered to employees, visitors, and nearby restaurants.

server tempeh is supported through Creative Industries NL through their initiative in renewing traditional craftsmanship.

Artist and chef '''Kimberley Cosmilla''' will prepare a dinner starring the server tempeh!

Kimberley Cosmilla is an alumnus from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie (Graphic design, 2018) and the Piet Zwart Institute (Experimental publishing, 2023). She is an independent cultural worker, a cook, a program coordinator, and is involved in various experimental projects using publishing and cooking to build relationships and strengthen collective practices. Her panel of collaborators spans from public libraries and schools to organisations for health prevention, and fellow artists or artist collectives.

In September 2025, she co-initiated the project space Shsh Souvenir Shop (Amsterdam), a soon-to-open “souvenir shop” hiding an actually opened secret restaurant.

“Cloud computing” has become the key component of today’s digital landscape. While the image evoked by the term “the Cloud” conjures an immaterial image of data floating through the air without a root or home, it overshadows the material reality of our digital habits. These habits run on deep-sea internet cables, energy guzzling server farms, precious metals mined for a large variety of chips, and more “stuff” that actually makes up what we now call “the Cloud”. To top it all off, the infrastructure that connects computing to everyday reality is largely owned, governed, and designed by big tech corporations that make all their decisions based on profit maximisation.

How can we bring sustainability, social equity, and democracy to the centre of how these everyday infrastructures are built, developed, and maintained? Can we make self-hosting more accessible? Can we imagine alternative internet structures? Can we bring the Cloud back down to earth? Join us for H&D Summer Camp, Clouds to Commons Closing Program, where we'll take a deep, playful, and experimental look at the Cloud.

This evening is the final public event of the H&D Summer Camp, so we've put together a full program. Starting at 18.00, visitors can already join a printing performance and exhibition where the Summer Camp participants will be sharing their processes and outcomes of the last two weeks. This sharing moment will continue after the Hmm event. H&D and The Hmm put together the evening talk programme, where we will expore hands-on-hacking, collective learning, speculative fabulation, and big tech resistance with six artists, designers, researchers, and makers.

==The Hmm @ H&D Summer Camp Speakers==
'''Kexin Hong'''

How is Asian diasporic life seen, or not seen, in Dutch society? Kexin is a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker based in Amsterdam. Working across moving image, installation, and essay film, she delves into the psychosocial and political forces shaping our sense of reality. She'll be joining us tonight to speak about Echoes from Afar, an open source online archive that rethinks how diasporic stories are told and navigated, with first person narratives and a real time translation system at the core of its design. This helps preserve the first person voice and resist the flattening that Asian communities in the Netherlands often experience in how they're represented. Echoes from Afar lays the groundwork for forms of visibility that move beyond familiar images. https://www.echoesfromafar.com/

'''Amy Gowen'''

In what ways can we activate the knowledge contained in a publication far before and long after it takes material form? Amy is a writer, editor, and publisher based in Rotterdam, who co-founded and co-runs HumDrumPress, an expanded publishing practice that experiments towards publishing as a commons. She'll be joining us to talk about HumDrumPress, sharing the specific tried and tested tools and methods for experimenting towards a commons-based publishing models in the permacrisis. In all of their outputs they work with a purpose-built, commons-based publishing model in an attempt to revise each stage of the traditional publishing cycle to make their processes as communal, open-access, and polyvocal as possible. . https://humdrumpress.com/

'''Martha Dimitratou'''

In the last months we saw the mass removal of Instagram accounts belonging to queer and cultural communities across the Netherlands. Repro Uncensored, Bits of Freedom and Dutch queer organizations have issued a legal demand against Meta for the removal of their accounts. Martha is the founder and executive director of Repro Uncensored, an organization protecting access to information and defending freedom of expression across reproductive, digital and cultural spaces worldwide. Her work operates at the intersection of technology, culture, artificial intelligence and advocacy, bringing together creatives, SRHR organizations and digital rights defenders to challenge online censorship and expand access to critical reproductive health and political information. Repro Uncensored has documented a sharp rise in reports involving LGBTQIA+ communities, sex workers, reproductive health organizations, artists, nightlife collectives, and sexual health educators across Meta platforms in recent months. https://www.reprouncensored.org/

'''Livio Liechti'''

Livio Liechti is a writer and researcher focused on the materiality of information infrastructures. A political scientist by training, Livio‘s core expertise lies in researching and responding to the political economy and infrastructural dimension of digital technology and its intersection with civic space and activism. Together with Apsara Flury, a graphic designer, he runs Papertrail, a publishing collective that engages with hidden infrastructural systems and their effects on the public sphere. They use printed matter, such as zines, posters, and books to make infrastructural power visible and tangible. Their research combines a documentary perspective on the environmental effects of digital infrastructures, such as hyperscale data centres, with prefigurative experimentation with non-digital information infrastructures, such as street libraries. He is also active in the (anti) data centre movement, where he takes people on educational walks.
https://papertrail.world/

'''Hicham El Kaddioui'''

Hicham is a software developer by profession and tinkerer the rest of the time. They're wary of privacy, online surveillance, and more generally of the power dynamics on the Internet. After being gifted a small mini-PC, Hicham began to explore what could be done with it, spurred on by a deep mistrust of Big Tech. Tonight they'll be joining us to share some stories about their journey of self-hosting web services from a spare computer in their bedroom, and some insights from the Summer Camp workshops. https://hicham.party

'''Martyna Pekala'''

Martyna is a multimedia artist based in Rotterdam. Although Martyna practice spans an array of mediums and techniques, it finds its expression at the intersection of where virtual and physical realities meet. Echoing Donna Haraway’s cyborg theory, the boundary between nature and technology, human and non-human is not a rigid line. In her research, she fictionalizes and materializes the intricate effects of social media and online presence on an individual’s unique perception of the world. This is achieved through a sci-fi and fantasy toy merchandise-inspired cosmology of environments and self-performed characters that pertain to the notion of auto-gaze performed on social media. Martyna uses the lens of a camera as her mirror and the open tabs on her browser as a map to the mind. The worlds of her works manifest in vivid colors, bold patterns, and surreal compositions. However, beneath the comical and, at times, overly cute absurdity, an undercurrent of escapist discomfort attempts to seep through, prompting the viewer to question whether the pursuit of ‘staying connected’ may paradoxically lead them to isolation.

Hicham is a software developer by profession and tinkerer the rest of the time. They're wary of privacy, online surveillance, and more generally of the power dynamics on the Internet. After being gifted a small mini-PC, Hicham began to explore what could be done with it, spurred on by a deep mistrust of Big Tech. Tonight they'll be joining us to share some stories about their journey of self-hosting web services from a spare computer in their bedroom, and some insights from the Summer Camp workshops. https://hicham.party

Livio Liechti is a writer and researcher focused on the materiality of information infrastructures. A political scientist by training, Livio‘s core expertise lies in researching and responding to the political economy and infrastructural dimension of digital technology and its intersection with civic space and activism. Together with Apsara Flury, a graphic designer, he runs Papertrail, a publishing collective that engages with hidden infrastructural systems and their effects on the public sphere. They use printed matter, such as zines, posters, and books to make infrastructural power visible and tangible. Their research combines a documentary perspective on the environmental effects of digital infrastructures, such as hyperscale data centres, with prefigurative experimentation with non-digital information infrastructures, such as street libraries. He is also active in the (anti) data centre movement, where he takes people on educational walks.

In the last months we saw the mass removal of Instagram accounts belonging to queer and cultural communities across the Netherlands. Repro Uncensored, Bits of Freedom and Dutch queer organizations have issued a legal demand against Meta for the removal of their accounts. Martha is the founder and executive director of Repro Uncensored, an organization protecting access to information and defending freedom of expression across reproductive, digital and cultural spaces worldwide. Her work operates at the intersection of technology, culture, artificial intelligence and advocacy, bringing together creatives, SRHR organizations and digital rights defenders to challenge online censorship and expand access to critical reproductive health and political information. Repro Uncensored has documented a sharp rise in reports involving LGBTQIA+ communities, sex workers, reproductive health organizations, artists, nightlife collectives, and sexual health educators across Meta platforms in recent months. https://www.reprouncensored.org/

In what ways can we activate the knowledge contained in a publication far before and long after it takes material form? Amy is a writer, editor, and publisher based in Rotterdam, who co-founded and co-runs HumDrumPress, an expanded publishing practice that experiments towards publishing as a commons. She'll be joining us to talk about HumDrumPress, sharing the specific tried and tested tools and methods for experimenting towards a commons-based publishing models in the permacrisis. In all of their outputs they work with a purpose-built, commons-based publishing model in an attempt to revise each stage of the traditional publishing cycle to make their processes as communal, open-access, and polyvocal as possible. . https://humdrumpress.com/

How is Asian diasporic life seen, or not seen, in Dutch society? Kexin is a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker based in Amsterdam. Working across moving image, installation, and essay film, she delves into the psychosocial and political forces shaping our sense of reality. She'll be joining us tonight to speak about Echoes from Afar, an open source online archive that rethinks how diasporic stories are told and navigated, with first person narratives and a real time translation system at the core of its design. This helps preserve the first person voice and resist the flattening that Asian communities in the Netherlands often experience in how they're represented. Echoes from Afar lays the groundwork for forms of visibility that move beyond familiar images. https://www.echoesfromafar.com/

How can we bring sustainability, social equity, and democracy to the centre of how these everyday infrastructures are built, developed, and maintained? Can we make self-hosting more accessible? Can we imagine alternative internet structures? Can we bring the Cloud back down to earth? Join us for H&D Summer Camp, Clouds to Commons Closing Program, where we'll take a deep, playful, and experimental look at the Cloud.

“Cloud computing” has become the key component of today’s digital landscape. While the image evoked by the term “the Cloud” conjures an immaterial image of data floating through the air without a root or home, it overshadows the material reality of our digital habits. These habits run on deep-sea internet cables, energy guzzling server farms, precious metals mined for a large variety of chips, and more “stuff” that actually makes up what we now call “the Cloud”. To top it all off, the infrastructure that connects computing to everyday reality is largely owned, governed, and designed by big tech corporations that make all their decisions based on profit maximisation.
