Open Workshop: Feedback Loop 1 (Pixel Mapping)
Alina introduces pixel mapping using TouchDesigner, delving into the technique to map visuals and effects onto malleable surfaces of LED strips. In this workshop, participants learn to break down and map visual data for LED pixel control, and to explore the possibilities of visual expressions and the design of dynamic lighting effects for installations and performances.
This is a paid workshop ($15). Registration will be approved after proof of payment is received.
About the artist
Alina Ling is an interactive designer that creates interfaces, installations and experiences that explore new dimensions of sensory perception. Incorporating technology with different modalities, her multi-sensory works manipulate the physical and intangible to provide a deeper understanding of spatial constructs and perceptual experience.
About the programme
Misbehaving Machines invites the public into a shared study of how machines behave — through movement, sound, and code — unfolding across lectures, listening sessions, and workshops that explore how systems operate, interact, and respond. Rooted in curiosity, experimentation and collective learning, the series examines the evolving human-machine relationship through art and technology.
This programme is presented by Hothouse and supported by the National Arts Council's Arts x Tech Lab initiative.
