SUMMARY:Sound Work
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Reg Beatty \n\n\n\nThis workshop is a wide-ranging survey of small tools for exploring sound. Taking some cues from early experimental music\, as well as contemporary practitioners\, we will examine the basis of sound creation and work with browser-based esoteric instruments\, ambient sonic landscapes\, voice\, noise\, field recording\, and unplanned effects. We will play with sound and shape it into myriad patterns that blend consonance and dissonance. \n\n\n\nThis workshop is accessible to anyone curious about working with sound and no prior musical training or ability is required. Participants will only need to bring laptops and headphones (or earbuds.) \n\n\n\nReg Beatty is a bookbinder\, book artist and designer. He has maintained a studio in Toronto since 1992\, lectured at a variety of institutions\, and taught bookarts and book design at OCADU\, York University and Sheridan College. As project manager and in-house designer at Toronto Metropolitan University’s Centre for Digital Humanities\, he helped create the new interface and content management system for Yellow Nineties 2.0. He received an MA in Communication and Culture at TMU/York\, where his major project investigated the algorithmic book. His work has been exhibited in the United States\, Europe\, Japan\, and across Canada.

SUMMARY:Making Strange Things with Twine
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jeremy Andriano \n\n\n\nAccording to its website twinery.org\, Twine is “an open-source tool for telling interactive\, nonlinear stories.” However\, as Twine’s creator Chris Klimas says\, “you can also make things that nobody can quite pin down.” He admonishes potential Twine writers\, “please make strange things with Twine.” Inspired by Klimas’ request\, this workshop explores Twine as an eccentric tool for more personal kinds of writing\, such as journaling\, scrapbooking\, note-taking\, or letter writing. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we will first introduce Twine for new users\, providing basic instructions for getting started. We will then work through a series of prompted writing exercises designed to highlight the ways that Twine can be used as a hypertext notebook for ‘scribbling\,’ for jotting down your thoughts\, recording a diary entry\, or for sending a note to somebody you care about. \n\n\n\nJeremy Andriano (he/him) recently completed a Master of Arts in the joint graduate program in Communication and Culture at Toronto Metropolitan University and York University. His thesis research explored ways that digital tools such as Twine and Ink/Inky can be used to introduce hypertext writing in traditional creative writing workshop settings. He has an undergraduate degree in English\, Honours (TMU 2023)\, is a frequent contributor to the Unarchived Podcast\, and has taught multiple workshops on Ink/Inky for the Electronic Literature Organization. He is the author of Creating Playable Stories with Ink and Inky (2023).

SUMMARY:Wor(l)d Building
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jason Boyd \n\n\n\nInteractive Fiction\, as its name indicates\, foregrounds the activity of interaction that becomes key to the reader’s navigation and experience of the work. In Wor(l)d Building\, we will use Inform 7 to construct a storyspace — a textual simulation of a space that generates a story through the reader’s purposeful engagement. Participants will furnish an imagined and/or recreated space of their own with curious and personal objects to handle\, striking views to contemplate\, and intriguing things to listen to\, all in a world made of words. \n\n\n\nJason Boyd is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at TMU\, and the Director of the Centre for Digital Humanities. He regularly teaches a course called “Narrative in a Digital Age\,” where students learn a variety of authoring platforms\, including Inform 7\, for the creation of playable stories. His essay\, “Poetry as Code as Interactive Fiction: Engaging Multiple Text-Based Literacies in Scarlet Portrait Parlor” (2023)\, explored an Inform 7 work that is simultaneously a sonnet\, a program\, and an interactive fiction.

SUMMARY:Glitching the Image
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Reg Beatty \n\n\n\nThis workshop is about imperfection and an aesthetic approach rooted in errors (accidental or deliberate!) that utilize fragmentation\, misalignment\, and distortion\, to look behind the veil of digital image-making. We will explore a collection of small browser-based tools that allow for the direct handling of pixels\, as well as the creation and manipulation of images that can be stretched\, bent\, and shattered\, in multiple and ingenious ways\, all to disturb their smooth surfaces and challenge their perceived perfection. \n\n\n\nReg Beatty is a bookbinder\, book artist and designer. He has maintained a studio in Toronto since 1992\, lectured at a variety of institutions\, and taught bookarts and book design at OCADU\, York University and Sheridan College. As project manager and in-house designer at Toronto Metropolitan University’s Centre for Digital Humanities\, he helped create the new interface and content management system for Yellow Nineties 2.0. He received an MA in Communication and Culture at TMU/York\, where his major project investigated the algorithmic book.
