RNDR RNDR designs and codes the future, by transforming data into information, information into knowledge, and knowledge into narratives.

RNDR was set up in 2017 in The Hague, (NL). Its founders have years of experience as partners, computer scientists, designers, and developers and . One of the core projects of RNDR is OPEN RNDR, an open source software library with over six years of development that simplifies writing real-time audio-visual interactive software. The library is meant to be used for prototyping as well as production.

Monday morning share: A detail from a weaving system we developed for an exhibition for the European Environment Agency in Brussels last year.

The system started from a simple idea: although environmental challenges are often structured into separate categories and subcategories, they are never truly separate. Climate, biodiversity, pollution, health, policy and society all overlap, influence each other, and become part of the same larger fabric.
This led us to weaving as a visual and conceptual language. A way to show how separate threads can cross, connect, obscure, strengthen and reshape each other.

Octagonal exhibition space • At the Clean Air Forum ’25 in Bonn, we presented our work for the European Environment Agency using an in-house designed octagonal exhibition space.

Eight sides displayed static and animated visualisations on air quality, focusing on PM₂.₅ and NO₂ around ports and airports, with an interactive experience designed for a single visitor inside of the space.

This documentation was filmed on camera and later converted into a 3D Gaussian splatting representation.

Excited to share some snippets from our most recent data visualisation work for the European Environment Agency (EEA), presented at the Clean Air Forum 2025 earlier this month in Bonn, Germany.

The work visualizes the current state of Europe’s environment through air-quality data specifically of ports and airports regions. Focusing on PM₂.₅ and NO₂ we turn these complex measurements into visuals you can read at a glance.
All data is provided by the European Environment Agency (EEA), the EU agency that gathers and shares independent, high-quality environmental data to support better decisions on climate, health, and sustainability.

A close-up of the Garden of Friction — we explore what happens when ideas are seeded, growing and branching into different perspectives. The viewpoints intertwine, revealing how they connect, where they collide, and what might have been overlooked. This evolving network becomes a landscape of thought.

Visual research for upcoming exhibition. This is one of many experiments where we’re exploring a the use of a path as a visual container.

This path is made from small modules, where we sample many of evenly spaced points, and place thin “pixel strips” along it. By sliding those strips forward, eased toward a target offset driven by the mouse, we redraw the image, creating a controlled pixel displacement in a smooth zigzag.

Stay tuned, more to follow soon.

Bereitschaft (readiness) — How TikTok became obsessed with a fascist statue

After its premiere at FOAM last year, the work Bereitschaft will be on display from August 20 at the Museum of Forced Labor Under National Socialism in Weimar, before travelling to Leipzig, Berlin, Helsinki, and Ljubljana later in the year.

Jakob Ganslmeier and Ana Zibelnik trace how TikTok fitness culture revives and reshapes fascist aesthetics to promote militarised masculinity. Through staged photography, archival material, and video, they map a continuum from historical propaganda to contemporary memes and extremist narratives — touching on survivalism, body optimisation, and the aesthetics of preparedness.

RNDR created the motion design, animating TikTok reels into layered, slow-moving, doom-scroll inspired sequences that echo the tension between readiness and uncertainty.

Exhibition dates 2025
- International Centre for the Image Ireland, Dublin – 17 July till 14 September

NOWHERE is now here - in China

The 18-meter-long video wall from NOWHERE – Imagining the Global City is now on view at Beijing, opening July 11 by Dutch ambassador André Haspels, with support from the Mondriaan Fund, The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Creative Industries Fund NL.

First shown in 2021 at Rotterdam, the project was created in close collaboration with photographer Frank van der Salm. RNDR developed the generative video installation that brings 25 years of Van der Salm’s photographic work into motion, exploring themes like Power, Fiction, Greed, and Vision.

The result is a 120-minute immersive experience, where 241 works continuously shift and relate to one another in real time. A dynamic soundscape by Henry Vega follows the flow of the projection, reinforcing the layered reading of the images and themes.

On view in Beijing from July 11 to August 31, 2025
Traveling to Xiamen for the Jimei x Arles Festival, from November 2025 to January 2026

Garden of Friction is an interactive installation we previewed at the , created in collaboration with the (VNG) and commissioned by the Dutch Societal Innovation Hub (DSIH).
The work explores the complexity of societal challenges by embracing contradictions, tensions, and diverse perspectives. Using the CreaTures “9 Dimensions” framework, it invites reflection and acts as a conversation enabler highlighting how change can emerge through embodying, learning, imagining, caring, organizing, inspiring, co-creating, empowering, and subverting narratives.

Last year we designed and developed the exhibition “Doesburg Vertelt” in . The exhibition is a small canon of the thousand year history of the city. Doesburg received city rights in 1237 due to its strategic location at the confluence of two rivers, grew into an important fortified and Hanseatic city in the Middle Ages, but saw its prosperity decline after the 15th century, remaining a well-preserved historic town with over 150 monuments today.

In the exhibition, the people of Doesburg share the history of their city through words and images. In the cellars of the Arsenaal, visitors look through seven interactive windows —situated in the arches— to historically important locations in the city. These windows serve as a storytelling device for information and knowledge about the history and culture of Doesburg.
