Tra Fasi (which is Surinamese for “in a different way”) offers a rare glimpse into the alternative (music) culture of Suriname, a world that is often overlooked. The documentary highlights Shavero's daily life and his efforts to organize an event for Suriname's outcasts.
The film not only showcases Shavero's musical journey but also the profound impact he has on the youth and the community around him. Despite facing challenges, Shavero continues to strive for the success of this event. He feels a sense of responsibility to provide a platform for emerging talent in Suriname; without him, this scene would not be able to flourish.
The creators have launched a fundraiser to provide a platform for the alternative scene in Suriname and give Shavero's career a boost and this needs to be part of the documentary as well. With this initiative, they aim to show the world that there are also alternatives in Suriname, which are hard to find. The project targets people who love punk/rock as well as those who are unfamiliar with it, from young to old. They want to bring Suriname to the Netherlands in a fresh and unique way, introducing a new sound.
They already filmed 15 days in Suriname and started a fundraiser to get Shavero to the Netherlands and finish the movie with him. Also they want to bring Shavero to the Netherlands to connect with alternatives, make music and perform as much as he can.
With this fundraiser, they hope to raise as much money as possible to elevate the documentary to the next level and put Suriname on the map. They want people to seek out this subculture the next time they visit Suriname.

Nifemi Marcus-Bello for Globetrotter Lab
Nifemi Marcus-Bello for Globetrotter Lab
Lagos-based industrial designer and artist Nifemi Marcus-Bello has brought his solo exhibition, “Material Affirmations – ORÍKÌ Acts I–III,” home, following a successful tour across the world. The show also proves to be a hometown favorite and has recently been extended for one week until January 17th, due to popular demand. Revolving around material and identity, “Oríkì” is a look at the past, present, and future through an exploration of bronze, aluminum, and copper. Named after a practice of praise poetry in the Yoruba culture, the show is a labor of love that took Nifemi around three-and-a-half years to complete. Coming back to Nigeria is a full circle moment for Nifemi, who draws from African traditions and finds his inspiration in his family. Speaking with Globetrotter Lab’s Kennedy Ashinze, Nifemi shares his views on the art landscape in Nigeria, his vision for open-source design, and more.-

Edson Sabajo for Globetrotter Lab
Edson Sabajo for Globetrotter Lab
For the first Visions of Visionaries instalment of 2026, Globetrotter Lab sits down with a true pillar of global street culture: Edson Sabajo, co-founder of Patta.Founded in 2004 by Edson and Guillaume "Gee" Schmidt, Patta has grown from a local Amsterdam boutique into a world-renowned independent ecosystem. The "Architecture of Independence" is their manual—a blueprint that prioritised cities like Milan and Lagos over the traditional industry hubs of Paris and Berlin. Built on Surinamese roots and a "people-first" philosophy, Patta remains the definitive case study on how a brand can scale globally while remaining fiercely sovereign.Recorded at Suudu Lagos—the members-only creative hub and home to Patta affiliates—this three-part series deconstructs the Patta manual. In Part 1, Edson reflects on the 360-degree journey from his heritage back to the African continent, and the raw energy he witnessed firsthand on the ground in Jakarta.-

Shunter – A New Space in Rotterdam
Shunter – A New Space in Rotterdam
Housed in a former NS warehouse next to Rotterdam-Zuid station, this raw industrial hall—rails still running across the floor—is being transformed into a new home for music, art, and experimentation.Founded by Sanne, Mark, and Onno, Shunter responds to a growing lack of space for electronic music, light art, performance, and work that lives between club and gallery—especially in Rotterdam-Zuid, where creative energy is high but structural space is scarce.Shunter will open about one weekend per month, with room in between for try-outs, experiments, and ideas still taking shape. The goal is to open this spring. To make that happen, the space needs basic infrastructure: toilets, a bar, sound insulation, and visitor facilities. €75,000 is required in total—€40,000 still needs to be raised through crowdfunding. Want to help bring Shunter to life? Donate if you can. Share the campaign. Talk about it. Or roll up your sleeves and help build.-
