January 20, 21, 22 2012! *Field Effect with Martin Howse* A three day workshop actively exploring the effects of electromagnetic fields on living systems; on the human body and the human psyche. The effects of complex field interactions with such systems, particularly with the psyche, are largely unknown and open to debate. Field Effect proposes to obtain first-hand,experimental knowledge of these relations, using DIY technologies. Experiments already suggest links between low frequency electromagnetic emissions and experiences of hauntings and UFO sightings. The first two days will be devoted to the construction of devices to both generate and measure magnetic fields and to examine the effects of these fields on living systems (such as plants or moulds), and on the body and psyche (measuring skin temperature, skin resistance, heartrate). In parallel, a series of experimental situations will be constructed to provide insights into the interactions between complex spectral ecologies (communication technologies such as wireless networks, mobile phone bases, TV, radio, power lines, motors, all electronic devices) and life. Participants will learn how to construct simple devices to measure heart rate and skin resistance, how to interface these to software and log/interpret results and how to intervene within electromagnetic space. No previous knowledge of fields required. Date: January 20, 21, 22 Time: 12:00-19:00 Maximum nr. of participants: 12 *Preregistration is required* and can be done by sending an email to [email protected].

Location: NK Elsenstr. 52 2HH 2Etage 12059 Berlin DE Fee: 45 (participation) + 15 (Material) Instructor Martin Howse http://www.1010.co.uk/org/ ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// February 10, 11, 12 2012 *Translating Audio into Images with After Effects* Level: intermediate A three day workshop explaining how to synchronise the movement and parameters of graphics with audio. Graphics could be any kind, from computer generated ones till handmade scanned files passed through photoshop. Audio and images will combine into after effects get manipulated,synchronised and export as audio driven quicktime movies. A usage of expressions (code) will take place too, for more advanced and specific synchronisation. Participants are encouraged to develop projects which will be presented at the end of the workshop. Day one: Basic introduction to after effects workspace, preparing images in photoshop for AE integration, basic animation techniques, Introduction to basic expressions. Day two: Expressions Syntax, exploration of the Trapcode Sound Keys and Particular plugins, audio manipulation and transformation into moving images. Day three: A step further into more advanced audio visualisation with participants’ own created graphics, projects presentation, thoughts and ideas about how each participants project could go a step further. The workshop will be held in English. * Requirements*: * Own Computer (Mac OS X/Windows). IMPORTANT: with an authorised Adobe after Effects cs5 version or a running Demo a trap code sound keys and Particular plugin running Demo will be provided. * Basic knowledge in video editing *, Headphones Date: February 10, 11, 12 – Time: 16:00-19:00 Maximum nr. of participants: 12 *Preregistration is required* and can be done by sending an email to [email protected].
