A two-day workshop about spatiotemporal disruptive imaging, or warping time and space in images. The workshop is part of the Media Technology MSc program. Lecturers are Maarten Lamers and Bart Thomée. Techniques discussed in the workshop are
Of each technique, artworks and other examples are shown and discussed. Hands-on experience will be part of the workshop: students will create their own time-space warped images. No strong programming skills required!
Possible techniques that can be used for creating spatiotemporally distorted images are discussed. Many examples and artworks are shown for each technique. Focus of discussion is on the spatiotemporal relations within the images, less on technical details. Some hands-on experience with simple but suitable techniques is part of the workshop. Students are challenged to create their own time-disrupting images by a technique of their choice.
One full day consisting of lectures, discussions, demonstrations and hands-on experimenting. After this day, students work at home to create their own spatiotemporal disrupted images, by a technique of their choice (approximately 16 hours work). One half-day return for students to present and discuss their results.
Some programming experience in the Processing language, or a comparable language. No heavy programming skills required.
Bring your own laptop if possible, with Processing-0124 installed (download from http://www.processing.org) bring webcams if possible (multiple if you have them), test them with standard Processing code from www.processing.org. bring rotating things (fast and very slow: fans, motors, etcetera) if you happen to have access to a stroboscope, bring it!
