About

This course will introduce participants to the concept of hybrid publishing.

Central In simple terms any process that makes public two or more instances of the same content, under different forms, can be designated of hybrid publishing.

examples

It is also essential that content and its public manifestations are interlinked, as to allow changes in the content to propagate to the its outputs. From this situation a conversational dynamic can emerge, where the publication design does not need to way for the content to be finalized, but the two processes can develop hand-in-hand, promoting a two-sided dialogue between content and form.



resumed as the creation of two or more publishable outcomes from the same source document, where source and outcomes are connect as to changes in the first to propagate to the latter.

To achieve this goal different strategies will be presented to the participants, who will be expected to put them into practice and explore the range of possible outcomes.

  • possible strategies to achieve
  • explore the creation of outcomes from these processes.


essential tools - HTML (content and structure), CSS (style), Javascript (interaction) - for the creation of digital publications. Familiarity with these tools is essential to anyone interested in creating from scratch or build upon existing digital publications, being them a website or an ebook (EPUB).

Because no technology exists in the void the historical context and cultural significance of these tools will be an important points of reference for the course, with examples of Internet art and other experimental browser-based works being frequently presented. In each session participants will develop simple prototypes that put into practice the presented content. As a long term goal participants will be asked to create an experimental browser-based work, that can be everything but a typical webpage. Possible outcomes might take the form of browser-based generative posters, VJing tools, a sound sampler or synthesizers, animations, to mention just a few examples.

The participation in this course it is important for the following kwartaal' s course dedicate to Courses/hybrid publishing, where participants will be introduced to methods for creating a publication with multiple outputs.

Planning

  • length: 1 kwartaal
  • sessions per week: 1 session per week
  • duration of each session: 3 hours

Course Goals

By the end of this course participants should have developed an understanding of: * The fundamental tool-set of digital publishing, consisting of HTML (content and structure), CSS (style), Javascript (interaction), which will allow them to work expressively and inventively with media, such as ebooks and websites.

  • Web's history, and conception as an interlinked documentation system, that exists withing the Internet network.
  • the steps necessary to create a website from scratch and explore the potential of this medium. And will understand the role of each one of the essential tools - HTML(content and structure), CSS (style), Javascript (interaction) - of digital publishing.
  • use the tools to create experimental works, such as generative posters, VJing tools, sound samplers and synthesizers, animations, to mention just a few.

Previous Publication Station's courses on hybrid publishing

For whom

Anyone interested in the potentialities of digital publishing and willing to challenge its limitation. Participants should be familiar with HTML.
