In this interactive workshop, participants played with lighting equipment to make quick, improvised videos. Then, they discovered how to translate these videos, frame by frame, into animated sequences of multi-colored light. In the first half of the day, participants learned how to play with light, color and video editing; the second half of the day was devoted to playing with basic programmable LED electronics. Work produced during this workshop became part of a public art installation in Borman Square Park.
