[Nettime-nl] NIMk: Pixxxel Workshop 4 december

[Marieke Istha <istha@nimk.nl>]

Pixxxel Workshop

Saturday December 4th, 2.00 - 5.00.pm

The Pixxxel workshop gives participants an overview on recent 
advancements of free and open source software (GNU GPL) for media 
production.

The workshop is held by developers directly involved in these projects. 
We will be looking at:

   * VeeJay - Visual instrument and video sampler - GNU/Linux
   * VJX - Graphical dataflow media framework - Apple/OSX 10.6
   * HDSync - HD digital video syncstarter - WDTV Live / Embedded
   * Frei0r - Free plugin API for video effects - Cross Platform

Participants will be introduced to the ideas and intentions of the 
developers with a usage demostration and of course the possibility to 
use the software independently at home. It will be a perfect occasion to 
get in touch with the developers and find out about new opportunities on 
how to collaborate with each other.

No particular skills are required by the audience but interest in doing 
media production with computers, some knowledge of existing interfaces 
for audio/video software and being open to collaboration would be nice. 
Not just developers and users are welcome, but also designers and 
creatives who can make good use of these tools and hopefully contribute 
back with their own experiences.

Please note: Participants are encouraged to bring their own laptop!
