Learn the fundamentals of live performance with video feedback and video synthesis. This hands-on workshop will cover topics including working with video mixers, processors, and synthesizers as well as video feedback in many forms. From the occult details of quadrature amplitude modulation to how camera feedback models reaction diffusion systems, this workshop will help beginners get started doing live visuals, and fill in any gaps an experienced video artist might have. No prerequisite knowledge of anything is required to have a good time!

Open to ages 14+.
