With apologies for cross-posting. Feel free to forward.<br><br>UPCOMING WORKSHOPS AT N.K.<br><br>January 20, 21, 22 2012! <h3><strong>Field Effect with Martin Howse</strong></h3>
<div class="entry">
<p>A three day workshop actively exploring the effects of
electromagnetic fields on living systems; on the human body and the
human psyche.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p>/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////<br></p><p>February 10, 11, 12 2012 </p><h3><strong>Translating Audio into Images with After Effects</strong></h3>
<div class="entry">
<p>Level: intermediate</p>
<p>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.<br>
<span id="more-3309"></span><br>
Day one: Basic introduction to after effects workspace, preparing images
in photoshop for AE integration, basic animation techniques,
Introduction to basic expressions.</p><p>Day two: Expressions Syntax, exploration of the Trapcode Sound Keys
and Particular plugins, audio manipulation and transformation into
moving images.</p>
<p>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.<br></p><p>The workshop will be held in English.
</p><p><strong> Requirements</strong>:
* 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.<br>
* Basic knowledge in video editing
*, Headphones</p>
<p>Date: February 10, 11, 12 – Time: 16:00-19:00<br>
Maximum nr. of participants: 12</p>
