A beginner to intermediate-level workshop best suited to people with a high level of comfort with computers and technology. This will be a smaller class, so there will be flexibility based on the group’s experience. This workshop will cover the basic usage of the applications Modul8 and MadMapper, for the creation of dynamic video art, VJing and projection mapping. The course will begin with a hands-on crash course in Modul8. As a group the class will go through a series of instructions on how to use the software, section by section, button by button. By the end of the first two classes, participants will have enough of an understanding of the software to use the videos they’ve created with MadMapper. With MadMapper, students will learn to project moving images on isolated surfaces, also called mapping. Students will have the opportunity to create a project with the support of the instructor.

VIVO is located in the homelands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples in a warehouse space at 2625 Kaslo Street south of East Broadway at the end of E 10th. Transit line 9 stops at Kaslo Street on Broadway. From the bus stop, the path is paved, curbless, and on a slight decline. The closest skytrain station is Renfrew Station, which is three blocks south-east of VIVO and has an elevator. From there, the path is paved, curbless, and on a slight incline.
