Summer School 2015: Bringing the world to life

Projection mapping uses 3D structures and videos to create a whole new environment augmented onto the world around us. Objects such as buildings and industrial landscapes can be used as a display surface for video projection, animating their surface and bringing them to life. In this session with Genevieve Smith-Nunes students will go through the projection mapping software environment so that they can continue to develop their ideas after the workshop. This workshop uses a single projector and a computer, something you could try at school or home.

This workshop is now SOLD OUT. To be added to the waiting list please go to our Eventbrite page. If you have tickets and can no longer attend, please contact us atsummerschools@ri.ac.uk.

Genevieve Smith-Nunes is founder of readysaltedcode a creative computing education company developing curricular and projects around Computer Science. She is a Computing educator, teaching GCSE and A-level Computing / Software Development and Games Design for the past 10 years. Join Genevieve to be creative using computer science.

This workshop is strictly for 13–15 year–olds and is aimed at those with little or no experience of computer programming. The workshop will include a 45 minute supervised lunch break during which students will not be able to leave the building unless permission is given at the time of booking. 

Students should bring lunch and a drink. They should also bring pens, pencils and a USB stick if they wish to take their work home.

This workshop is based on an Ri Computer Science Masterclass. Students who have attended a Masterclass series which included a session on a similar topic may have already seen some of the content in this workshop. Please contact us onsummerschools@ri.ac.uk with any questions. 

Refunds can only be issued for tickets cancelled at least one week (seven calendar days) in advance of the event date. Please note that this supersedes our normal event terms and conditions.
