Korsakow at the Brakhage Center, Colorado
Over the last several weeks, I’ve had my head down in my work: video & writing. I’m getting ready to visit the Brakhage Center at the University of Colorado in Boulder. My brilliant friend and colleague, Mél Hogan, is doing a post-doc there, and we thought it was about time we spent a few days together thinking through some projects, and – best of all – working on them too. Nothing like making stuff. Websites, videos, non-linear documentaries… the usual…
On Monday, March 14, Mél and I will be working with her class (and other guests) to go through some of the basics of Korsakow, the non-linear documentary software I’m using for my dissertation research. AKA making stuff. Thanks to Matt Soar (you should check out his positively lovely latest k-film) and the rest of the team at Concordia University and elsewhere, we have been well-suppled with images, suggestions, and best practices for teaching it. Later that week, a couple of discussion opportunities are being put together about Korsakow. And on March 16 & 17, I’ll be attending the great Brakhage Center Symposium, with some pretty impressive-looking other guests. Can’t wait. If you’re in the area, come on!
