DENTalk 'Music Rights: Use and Reuse of Music in Times of AI'

When you create an audiovisual work, film a dance performance or theater production, and want to publish it online, you will almost always encounter music rights. Whether it's through your own platform or a commercial channel, as soon as you use music that isn't yours, you need permission from the rights holders.  

But what exactly do you need to arrange, and with whom?

Hackathon AI: from idea to concept

You probably have a list of things where you think: ‘Can’t this be easier?' Or: 'Shouldn’t AI help with this?' But between that idea and execution lies a world of uncertainty. How do you build it? Is it safe? And will it actually work?

During this two-day hackathon, we bring AI out of the realm of vagueness and endless possibilities. Together with you, we make it concrete.

The DEN: Conscious with AI Tour - East Netherlands - with Cultuur Oost

“You have to do ‘something’ with it!”, “It goes against our core values!”, “It’s the answer to all your questions!”. Opinions about AI are flying everywhere. But how do you, as a cultural organization, decide what suits you? And how do you make conscious choices regarding sustainability, copyrights, and privacy?

After last year's success, DEN is once again touring the country this year with the Conscious with AI Tour. In various regions, we will engage in conversations with regional partners and cultural professionals about the opportunities énd challenges surrounding AI.

Workshop cybersecurity: create an incident and recovery plan

What if something goes wrong? Cybersecurity is no longer just about prevention but about being prepared. Because a phishing email, data breach, or system outage can have a significant impact on your organization, from loss of public data to halted services. 

It is therefore wise to create an incident and recovery plan. This outlines how you prepare for a possible cyber incident, how you respond to it, and how you recover from it. A good incident and recovery plan ensures that you don't have to improvise but can act quickly and systematically to limit damage and speed up recovery.

Workshop: AI for the cultural sector - the next step

You might already be using AI to streamline an email or quickly jot down some ideas. That’s a great start. But at the same time, you probably notice: it often remains fragmented. You type a prompt, get a result, and then still spend time adjusting, verifying, or copying to other systems.

How do you ensure that AI is no longer a standalone action but a structural part of your workflow? That it not only helps you think but also helps you execute?
