 Programme:Field + Streaming 4.0A New Media Workshop Series for Youth Presented by InterAccess, Charles Street Video, Trinity Square Video, and The Power Plant. Field & Streaming 4.0 is a multimedia project for youth between the ages of 15 and 25 that provides a hands-on opportunity to learn about digital video production, webstreaming technology and contemporary art. Dates: April 30, May 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 Cost: $150 Registration deadline is April 27 and places are limited. F+S4.0 is inspired by The Power Plant exhibition Cloaca New & Improved, a mechanical reproduction of the human digestive system by Belgian artist Wim Delvoye. Using the consumption of food (eating, digesting, defecating) as a guiding metaphor, this workshop will explore the different ways we experience and process visual culture. Participants will use their cameras to eat video footage; they will digest the images in editing suites and eliminate the waste in a webcast. In this way, ideas about media ecology, the electronic environment and cultural sampling will be considered. The workshop series will include: - a critical examination of The Power Plants exhibition Wim Delvoye: Cloaca New & Improved - a session, to be led by Trinity Square Video, devoted to learning the ins and outs of digital videography, including hands-on instruction in video camera use - a day of shooting to collect video footage - a workshop in video editing at Charles Street Video - a daylong session where participants will use a variety of creative techniques to edit their collected video footage - a webcast production planning session coordinated by InterAccess - a live, interactive webstreaming event For registration or more information, contact Terence Dick, Workshop Coordinator at terence@harbourfront.on.ca or call 416-973-4931 Power Plant Public Programmes are generously supported by CIBC Wood Gundy in their capacity as Primary Educational Sponsor.
