O radionici:
Projekt Oscilloscope Graphic Artist (OGA) prvotno je oblikovao američki programer Mitchell Waite te ga objavio u reviji Popular Electronics. Uređaj se sastoji od Time Base oscilatora, dva Shape oscilatora, Detail oscilator i dva fazna izmjenjivača (Phase Shifts), dva multiplikatora (Multipliers) i signalnog miksera (Signal Mixer) i napaja se s dvije 9 Voltne baterije ili preko eurorack napajanja. Iz ovog popisa mogli biste steći dojam da se radi o kompliciranom projektu, no zapravo je vrlo jednostavan i primjeren i za početnike koji žele stvarati računalno generirane trodimenzionalne grafike s oscilatorom. Na radionici polaznici će se upoznati s osnovama funkcioniranja OGA uređaja te zalemiti svoj modul i ponijeti ga kući.

O voditelju:
Phil Baljeu intermedijalni je samouki umjetnik koji se izražava video materijalima i zvukom kojima stvara AV kompozicije svojim DIY elektroničkim instrumentima. Phil Baljeu u svom je radu fokusiran na apstraktni imaginarij i teksture, često koristeći tradicionalni vizualni materijal kao što su portreti i arhitektura koje manipulira u svemirske video skulpture i svjetlosne slike. Živi i djeluje u Torontu.

Workshop by Canadian intermedia artist Phil Baljeu entitled Oscilloscope Graphic Artist (OGA)  is a part of the programme of the Vector Hack – International Festival of Analogue Vector Graphics and is set to take place on 4th of October from 10am to 1pm at Technical Museum Nikola Tesla in Zagreb.

About the Workshop:
The Oscilloscope Graphic Artist (OGA) project was initially designed by Mitchell Waite and published in Popular Electronics Magazine. The project consists of a Time Base Oscillator, two Shape Oscillators, a Detail Oscillator, two Phase Shifts, two Multipliers, and Signal Mixers. From this list you might think the project would be complicated, but it is actually quite easy and even beginners will be comfortable. Everything is included to be able to generate interesting Oscilloscope Graphics. The OGA can be powered from either two 9 volt batteries, or a eurorack power supply. Workshop participants will be walked through the operation principles and the construction of the project.

About the mentor:
Phil Baljeu is a self taught video and sound artist living in Toronto, Canada using self-designed and built electronic instruments to generate audio/visual compositions. Baljeu’s focus is on abstract imagery and textures, often using traditional imagery such as portraits and architecture and manipulating them into alien video sculptures and light paintings.
