NL Lounge: Photo exhibition ATTACHED
On June 3, the NL Lounge is your base camp for the day: a place to land between sessions, make new connections, and get a feel for what the Netherlands is building right now.
Part of the offer is this photo exhibition ATTACHED:
What does your relationship with your phone look like? The exhibition and manifesto ATTACHED take you into the intimate and complex relationship that young people from Amsterdam have with their online world. Through this project, they advocate for a healthy and safe digital world.
ATTACHED is a project by studio idiotes and Connect.
In this lab, people work on challenges related to the online lives of young people. The city of Amsterdam aims to improve the digital world for young people and help them engage with technology consciously and safely. ATTACHED was produced by Open Mind Foundation and the photographs were taken by Maria Bodil, an Amsterdam based creative direction duo creating imagery, films and conceptual campaigns.
NL House @ SXSW London
On June 3 2026, NL House opens for a day that runs from a morning wake-up call about where ambitious people should actually point their talent, to late-night conversations about what Amsterdam's after-dark culture is building next.
Expect cities to make the case for why they deserve your attention. Brands and studios showcasing work that moves people. Artists and technologists with projects that refuse to fit neatly into a single discipline. Explore the NL Lounge, where ten Dutch startups will showcase their technological creativity.
Presented by New Dutch Wave and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, created in collaboration with Dutch Digital Design, Creative Industries Immersive Impact Coalition, EIT Culture & Creativity, the City of Amsterdam, ROM Utrecht Region, Innovally, Gielissen, WT Interactive, and Dentsu Lab.
