Apparatus – Andrew J. Milne
Apparatus is the construction of mechanism as ruin. It is a collection of decaying monuments that realize a historical vision of future utopias, dragging them back toward obsolescence, futility and critique. The exhibition commemorates a future where vision is total and simultaneous; where Cinema has eclipsed experience.

Sound: Field
Open your ears… Effective field recording is about learning how to listen. This hands-on workshop will teach participants the fine art of capturing the right sounds in the field. We’ll explore 5 field recording units and an array of different microphones as we learn to really hear what’s coming through the headphones.
Sound: Production
Roll Sound! With this workshop we’ll be exploring ins and outs of location audio. Participants will learn how to select the best microphone for the job, how to make the most of the acoustics on set and the art of holding a boom pole. Discover the secrets of recording crisp, clear dialogue and stunning sound effects!
Sound: Introducing…
This class is a pre-requisite for the three workshops that follow it. A solid understanding of the fundamentals of audio is key to making great recordings. During this 4-hour session, participants will learn about the basic principles behind sound, acoustics, microphones and digital & analog audio recording. If you’re new to working with audio or just haven’t been getting the results you want, this is a great place to start.
