Instituut voor Beeld en geluid

The moon landing, The Gulf War and the wedding of Prince Willem-Alexander and Máxima. These are all events which define our image of the world, even if we were not present at them ourselves. The fragments that colour our memories are stored in the treasure-houses of the Netherlands Institute for Sound en Vision: the collective memory of the Netherlands.

The Netherlands Institute voor Sound and Vision looks after, and releases, 70 per cent of the Dutch audio-visual heritage. In total, around 700,000 hours of television, radio, music and film, making Sound and Vision one of the largest audio-visual archives in Europe. Sound and Vision combines the highest professional standards regarding the release and storage of the material with very easy access for users and public.

But the institute is more than just a collection. Sound and Vision is the business archive of the national broadcasting corporations, a cultural history institute and also a unique media experience for its visitors. Programme makers use the collections for new programmes and the archive is a unique source of information for research, not only for students and academics, but also for journalists. Furthermore, the audio-visual material is a valuable addition to traditional teaching methods, so Sound and Vision also promotes the use of media in the education system.
