DM Christmas! [MEMBERS ONLY] [SIGN-UP REQUIRED]
2024-12-17 19:00 - 23:00 (Europe/Amsterdam) | DM Studio (Luna -1.398), De Lampendriessen 31, Eindhoven, 5612AH, Netherlands
White Elephant & Christmas Dinner
Ho ho ho! DM will be hosting a White Elephant and Christmas dinner event on the 17th of December. “What is a White Elephant?” you may be asking. Well, a White Elephant gift exchange is a fun event where everyone brings a wrapped (usually funny) gift to put in a “pot.” A random order is decided for picking gifts, and people choose and open a gift from the “pot” in that determined order. Stealing IS on the table if you see someone has a gift that you really want. Specifics will be explained better at the event, but you get the gist. For this event, we request that everyone brings a gift (or multiple gifts all wrapped together) with a value of around 5 euros.
Note that the dinner starts at 19:00, and white elephant at 20:30.
Sign up via the form sent in the group chat.

Double exposure
2024-12-03 20:00 - 22:30 | DM Studio (Luna -1.398), De Lampendriessen 31, Eindhoven, 5612AH, Netherlands
Double exposure is a photography style used originally with analog cameras by taking two pictures on the same film, but in this day and age can be done quite easily with most newer digital cameras. We will, of course, provide cameras with double exposure capabilities, but it’s also nice to check your own cameras to see if they can do it as well!

2024-11-12 16:00 - 2024-11-22 23:00 | MetaForum, 1st floor, Groene Loper 5, Eindhoven, 5612AZ
From puddles to spills, to overfilled bathtubs, wet floors can be found in all sorts of environments and circumstances! Up until now, you might have never paid much thought to the signage that may or may not accompany a nice, slippery walkway. However, these poor signs have been working overtime to protect you and all your friends from a treacherous fall, earning little to no recognition for their efforts. It’s high time we honor their bravery and dedication to public safety with an aptly named DM photo exhibition in the MetaForum building from November 12-22!

We do, however, have a relaxing movie night planned for Tuesday, November 5th in the DM studio. There will be drinks, snacks, and a chill vibe in the studio to accompany your movie-watching experience. We hope to see you this Tuesday!

Committee interest drink (members only)
2024-10-08 20:00 - 23:00 | Stationsplein 2-A, Eindhoven, Stationsplein 2a, Eindhoven, Netherlands
[MEMBERS ONLY] Enjoy a nice game of pool with a side of DM committee propaganda this coming Tuesday! As you may know, committees are a important part of the association. Joining a committee lets you see how the association functions behind the scenes and also gives you the ability to plan things yourself. This interest activity will be a fun way to get exposed to all the different committees DM has to offer so you can decide if there are any that “tickle your fancy” either to join this year or another year in the future.

Two-tone photography
2024-10-01 20:00 - 23:00 | DM Studio (Luna -1.398), De Lampendriessen 31, Eindhoven, 5612AH, Netherlands
Lighting is a very integral aspect of photography and is therefore very fun to experiment with, especially in the context of portraits. Changing the color, positioning, and intensity of the flashes can lead to very interesting and aesthetically-pleasing results. You might even end up with some great portraits of yourself! For this activity, we will use two different colored flashes to create a nice split and contrast in the portraits taken. This activity will take place in the DM studio at 20:00 as per usual, and we would love to see you there!

After a year of hard work, Board 53: Fool’s Focus will be stepping down and make way for the new Board 54. Who will be part of it? Well you will have to join to find out. Our lovely chairman has sent all of our members an email with the important information about what will be discussed. For this GMM we will go back to our roots and host it in the studio.

Lightbending Photography
2024-09-17 20:00 - 23:00 | DM Studio (Luna -1.398), De Lampendriessen 31, Eindhoven, 5612AH, Netherlands
Are you interested in the different ways you can manipulate light to make your photos look more interesting? Ever sat in a physics class and pondered the photographic applications of Isaac Newton’s favorite light-refracting objects? Maybe not! But using prisms, mirrors, and funky glass textures; you can create all sorts of interesting patterns and colors with just a standard flashlight. If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to join us in the DM Studio on the 17th of September to experiment with these exciting materials.
