Strange Loop is an interactive workshop and gentle meditation on the hidden realms of nature found at our feet. The day begins with a guided walk around the University campus to gather organic materials, before returning to the tech lab to explore these findings using digital microscopes.Your discoveries will be examined up close, collaged, and projected live, accompanied by an evolving music soundtrack.This hands on workshop invites participants to use digital microscopes as creative tools to explore biodiversity and cellular forms, allowing the beautiful geometries of nature to take centre stage. Using techniques drawn from video art and live visual performance, you will learn to work with four live capture microscopes.
