Software and Experimentation: An advanced Workshop on Creative Play within Adobe Flash

2pm–5pm Saturday 24 July 2010
Facilitator: Jason Nelson
Cost: Free
Bookings: email The Edge

This is an advanced workshop exploring the creative/artistic use of Adobe Flash and related software packages. Net artist Jason Nelson will guide participants through building and breaking interactive techniques within Flash, exploring both its myriad of uses and its dangers and problematic future.

Specifically, Jason will coax students into thinking multi-dimensionally and incorporating the full spectrum of media (both new and old) into their work. The workshop will also introduce students to Flash alternatives such as the Canvas element in html 5 and the generative code project Processing. Students are strongly encouraged to have prior experience using software to create art and should have a basic knowledge of Adobe Flash or related software/code.
