Steven Jouwersma Club de Gootsteen

Club de Gootsteen by Steven Jouwersma

Club de Gootsteen 2010 A home recording was done in the house of each participant.

An underground music club that exists in the imagination of the participants .

I installed two speakers under two street tiles fitted with kitchen sinks and invited 8 amateur musicians from the neighborhood. I recorded their music and played it for 8 consecutive months. Day and night out of the music club under the street tiles

Every month I invited an artist to design a poster to announce that month’s musician. Among the artists I invited were Bert Scholten, Waynehorse and Bart Nijstad. Stickers of the club were spread around the city and can be found in many toilets of bars and clubs in Groningen.

During the period of eight months the club started to be known in the neighborhood and people started to advise Jouwersma where more home-musicians could be found or they would inquire about the last musician they heard "playing" in the club. In the night teenagers hung around the sounds coming from the tiles under their feet and when snow covered the streets a muffled trumpet or elderly choir could be heard somewhere under the snow.

The club gave rise to some form of perplexity among it's spectators, but worked socially binding among it's participants. All the physical parts were finally presented in a gallery together with a newspaper that reported about the events that happend during the eight months of existence. Musicians: O.N.S. - Willem Jan Stienstra - Heleen Ytsma - Frans van Rijn - Yar Mohammad Alizai -Eddy Kamstra - Sebastiaan Vos - Basisschool de Pendinghe Poster Designers: Bert Scholten, Marijke ten Caat, Bart Nijstad, Gijs Deddens, Martine Rademakers, Astrid Florentinus, Alfred Boland, Waynehorse
