PoV: Rotterdam
Proof of Vibes: Documenting the World's Cultural DNA
Proof of Vibes is launching a magazine series that documents the authentic cultural DNA of cities worldwide — one city at a time. We capture what algorithms can't: grassroots perspectives, shared understanding, and cultural climate through the lens of real communities, tastemakers, and scene-shapers.
Our inaugural issue: Rotterdam — guest-edited by Charlie Koolhaas (artist, author, and urban observer), in partnership with OMI (Office for Metropolitan Information).
This isn't just about buying a magazine. It's about building a global community that documents what matters.
Partners & Sponsors
We are actively seeking partners and sponsors who share our vision of documenting authentic cultural DNA. Join us in celebrating and preserving global cultural narratives.
