Retool & Remix : a one-day digital media workshop
DAVID REITER
This workshop will take participants into the world of digital publishing—from creating blogs to using the internet to promote your work, and much more. Have you heard about people who dream in code and wonder what you're missing? Are you confused about the difference between HTML and XHTML? Uncertain whether you should have a website, blog or a podcast to promote your latest work? Are you itching to team up with other artists to produce multimedia work? Then this is the workshop for you!
Award-winning author and multimedia artist David Reiter will provide an overview of digital projects that can be created from your desktop. He'll also cover the key issues involved with electronic publishing and distribution and demonstrate some of the channels currently available to text artists for publication on the internet and on portable devices including laptops, media players and 3G phones. Get ready to create works for blogs, podcasts or CD/DVD distribution and learn the differences in audience expectations for screen-based channels.
Come with ideas for your own digital project.
If participants in the "Retool & Remix" workshop want to go further down digital pathways, we will look at running a follow-up workshop on creating digital projects later in the year.
DATE, Saturday 26 June, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
VENUE: NEWC
COST: $55 members / $65 non-members
