Describe the main features of the policy/measure: 
MU Art Foundation is an explorative presentation platform that operates in a rich international network of creatives who define the liminal space between ‘what art is and what art can be’. MU initiates, produces and presents rather new works, and surrounds it with an extensive and interdisciplinary secondary programme targeted to a broad and rather young audience. MU prioritises introduction to, understanding of, elaboration on, and experiencing hands-on creation, of art. MU is curious for talent, and challenges talents to be curious. MU provides a platform for artistic research, and development of artists and designers, and helps them to profile themselves internationally. MU organises activities within three programme tracks: (1) “Urban Mutations”, with a focus on urbanization, (2) “Post Digital and Transhuman Explorations”, with a focus on biotechnological development and digital culture, and (3) “The Art of Design, The Design of Art”, with a focus on for free and applied design culture. MU is part of the Dutch Basic Cultural Infrastructure.
What are the results achieved so far through the implementation of the policy/measure?: 
Within the programme track “Post Digital and Transhuman Explorations”, MU coproduced the internationally very successful thematic exhibition “Computer Grrrls”, together with HMKV and La Gaîté Lyrique. Next to the exhibition, the in-depth digital Design Nonfiction platform is an interesting open form of online knowledge sharing and design historiography. MU collaborated with the design collective Tellart that filmed more than 50 in-depth interviews with prominent thinkers, designers, makers and educators in the digital field.
