Mash Up workshops for Arnolfini's family-friendly activity days, coordinated by their Access & Learning Department. Informed by the Far West exhibition, which transformed a contemporary arts venue on Bristol’s historic harbourside into a ‘concept store’, exploring the shift of economic power to the East.

WormCam techniques were used with food packaging from Chinese Supermarkets. Participants used 2 real-time cameras and a video mixer to create a rich visual continuum with a distinctive eastern flavour. The resulting video stream was digitised and participants were able to select images from their session, make prints and take away 'products'.

Engage represents gallery, art and education professionals in the UK and 15 countries worldwide. It enables schools and communities to develop the confidence to enjoy and understand the visual arts through gallery education projects. The workshop, for 30 secondaryschool teachers prior to school visits to their local galleries was 'something innovative to break down pre-conceived ideasabout galleries - a hands on session for all, very cross-curricular, using sound / video.'

Participants responded to Arnolifini's Port City exhibition (an international cross-artform touring project, addressing issues of global migration, trade and contemporary slavery). We used simple, free-download, visual applications to produce 'artworks' with formal similarities to works in the exhibition. Impressions of Arnolfini were captured with mobile phones and digital cameras. Media was digitised (USB/Bluetooth), made into movies with Quickmovie (movies from multiple images), and presented in Multimedia Tiler (many ways to display images/movies). I revealed how sophisticated results can be quickly achieved using free, easy to use software, and mobile technologies familiar to young people.

Between August 2004 and February 2005, I Am The Mighty Jungulator delivered an innovative series of Generative Community Portraits in partnership with Watershed Media Centre, supported by Connexions West of England's PAYP scheme. Watershed's Evaluation Report examines the programmes' aims and objectives, the creative processes of the workshops, outcomes for the young people and artists involved, and issues of sustainability and future directions.
