Creating Interactive Artworks with Isadora

Creating Interactive Artworks with Isadora: The three-day workshop  
will focus on creating interactive performance, installation and VJ  
sets using Isadora (http://www.troikatronix.org/isadora.html), a real- 
time media manipulation tool that has become the software of choice  
for hundreds of artists worldwide.  Taught by Mark Coniglio (creator  
of Isadora and Artistic Co-Director of multimedia performance group  
Troika Ranch), the participants will learn to use Isadora's flexible  
building blocks to present and manipulate video and sound in real- 
time. Coniglio will then build upon this knowledge by showing how  
external sensory systems can allow performers or viewers to  
interactively control the media with gestures or vocalizations. All  
workshop participants will receive a three-month temporary license  
for the software so that they may continue their exploration after  
the workshop concludes.

Participants will ideally have some background in creating media- 
intensive artworks. An understanding of how to capture video and/or  
audio using software like Final Cut Pro, iMovie, Premiere, or Windows  
Movie Maker will benefit the participants as they integrate their own  
digital media into the process, though it is not required.

Participants are required to bring their own computer (see below for  
minimum requirements). If this is not possible, please let us know  
and we can see what we can do to accommodate you.

The workshop will take place from Monday February 11 through Thursday  
morning February 14. Included is an afternoon with special STEIM  
presentations on junXion, LiSa and the junXionboard to place Isadora  
in a STEIM context.
