Digital Mythology
A Journey into a Brave New Digital World
Garry Oker & Mathew McNeil
Each participant will be guided through the steps to:
Adapt the spoken word of story-telling into a visual narrative,
Paint textures and applying them in 2D and 3D digital work-environments,
Illustrate a character so that the character can be modelled in a 3D environment.
The goal is to provide every participant with a practical starting point to build their skills in working with 3D computer graphics animation and digital imaging technology.
Participants will be provided with user documentation to follow if they want to practice 3D character animation on their computer at home.
Each participant will be taking home with them the insights and materials needed to get started in putting together a visual narrative, and familiarizing themselves with modeling a 3D character for animation.

Geo Tag Art Dot ComJune 10 - October 31, 2011 Members of the Ullus collective are offering a location-based art experience to wireless audiences visiting Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park this summer. In partnership with the Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art, they invite you to participate in the 100-year anniversary of BC Parks, by checking in to an art experience showcasing video, sound, sculpture and painting. This innovative platform allows wireless audience to link to works by Okanagan artists and explore creative connections to the land. They hope the artists’ ideas will stimulate and entertain visitors as they walk, bike or hike along the Kettle Valley trail. |
Picto Prophesy ProjectJune 24 - Aug 15, 2011 The Picto Prophesy Project is a new media artwork project, exploring the role of prophesy in Indigenous Culture. The Project was conceptualized as a response to the growing hype around the 2012 end of the world Mayan prophesies. While these prophesies may have caught the interest of mainstream culture through Hollywood style Armageddon themed movies, many people may not be aware that prophesy plays an important role in Indigenous communities across this land. Through this project the Ullus Collective artists will do what they can to help put this hype into perspective by sharing some of their own cultural understandings of prophesy.
