Introduction to Processing Workshop(s)

| 12.09.2011

Jesse Scott of GRL, who will do a talk at our SCOPE Session this thursday presents two days of Processing workshops tomorrow and wednesday!

Part 1 : Everything you always wanted to know about Processing but were afraid to ask | Tue Sep 13th

Prerequisite: No previous programming experience required, just an open mind and an idea of how you would like to use Processing in your work.

The beginning half of this workshop will start in a traditional talk format, and explain the basics of type-based programming, and things like variables, datatypes, methods, and functions.

The remaining half will be conducted in a open format, with questions, discussion, and hands-on coding in discovering methods and techniques.

Part 2 : Applied Learning and Problem Solving with Processing | Wed Sep 14th

Prerequisite: Part 1 of this workshop, a previous workshop from me, or previous experience with Processing

During the first half of this workshop, participants will use hands-on techniques in order to complete exercises designed to give them experience in problem solving using Processing.

For the second half of the workshop, Jesse will help participants design a custom program featuring one or more modes of interaction.

11.11. HOBO Filmfest

| 9.11.2009

Das betahaus veranstaltet kommenden Mittwoch das HOBO Filmfest!

The railroad industry in America has played an immense role in the development and progression of our modern society. Besides its most obvious role as a life line for supplies and sustenance to newly burgeoning towns and industry, it helped spawn an incredible subculture of people, the hobos and tramps of America. These hobos used the trains during the great depression in order to seek work, and a whole society of people grew around the railroads.
Agency Films has long been associated with the railways and has produced multiple short films and television programming around the subject of train hopping and have made it their mission to preserve the history of the American train tramp. We have generated national interest due to our increasingly popular television shows, You Tube broadcasts, and the yearly Asheville Rejects Film Festival.

Agency Films is due to kick off the European leg of their Hobo Film Festival September 2009 and will embark on an international tour culminating in Oslo Norway. They have brought together dozens of filmmakers who produce films around train hopping and hobo culture and are gathering even more submissions to create the ultimate visual dichotomy of this colorful and truly important facet of American history.

The tour starts in Berlin and has over 16 stops along the route, including Prauge, Budapest, Vienna, Rome, Zurich, Barcelona, Paris, London, Bristol, Dublin, Brussel, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Oslo.

Duct Robot UFO Mapping

| 29.09.2009

31488622

betahaus asked me to do some visuals for their atoms&bits party. when i went there before to check out the location, i saw this great piece of duct-tape graffiti art by organ aka. normboy on the wall of their large room where the party was planned to take place. i instantly knew that this piece *had to* be transformed into a mapping. after some tech and logistic annoyances during the final set-up and no way to adjust the projector keystone, it eventually worked quite well and i got a lot of positive feedback from the audience.

the front room was illuminated by a slide projection of hilmikillme’s work and some tv monitors looping selected video works of auderoseselavy, raquel meyers, lucy benson, decrepticon and pixelnoizz. VisualBerlin reprazent!
