MAKING THINGS - THAT DO THINGS


The SLAB (Studio LAB) is the only open lab in Vancouver that offers workshops in visual multimedia programming, real-time\ media manipuluation, circuit bending, physical computing, and all you need to know to get your art to move.

We’re not maxing, we’re relaxing with a free open source media tool called Pure-Data (PD). It is LEGO for digital media and you can do anything with it!

MAKE YOUR OWN SLAB
Combine workshop into your own package: take PD BASICS and any other Slab workshop(s) of your choice: Visual Media, Sonic Media, or Media Integration & Interfacing.
