Abandoned buildings of NDSM Shipyards in Amsterdam North were occupied in the 1990´s by groups of artists who later organized themselves under the name Kinetisch Noord. In 2001 the group gained access to the NDSM shed (20.000 m2), the Docklands shed (6.000 m2) and two concrete shipbuilding ramps, to develop the whole site (84.000 m2) into the biggest “incubator” in The Netherlands. Affordable and flexible studios were created, in the sheds and under the ramps, while event infrastructure was installed in the open spaces.

The site now carries the name Mediawharf and is inhabited by MTV Networks Benelux and IDTV. Among other events, the theater festival “Over het Ij” 2007 took place around the ramps of the wharf in tents and containers.

Former Bus Depot of the Berlin transport company - built in 1927 by architect Franz Ahrens, at that time with 7.000 square meters the largest shed in Europe - was confiscated by the nazis during the war, used as refugee camp afterwards and became isolated in the Wall zone from 1961.

In 1995 organisation ART Kombinat starts to develope a cultural “microcosmos” in the complex: In the middle the big hall, surrounded by extraordinary locations like Glashaus (1920´s style theatre and nightclub), Hoppetosse (nightclub and restaurant on a boat), Badeschiff (floating swimming pool in the river Spree) and Magazin (shed exhibition space). All programs are connected by an empty industrial paved riverfront (Freifläche) where outdoor events take place.

Until 2004 the area was partially rented by YAAM (Young and african art market), which organized music and sports events by the riverside.
