On Friday, February 24, the Center for American Architecture and Design will host Jim Walker as part of the Friday Lunch Forum series.
Roughly every other Friday during the fall and spring semesters, the Center hosts the Friday Lunch Forum Series. The aim of the series is for faculty, staff, and students to meet in an informal atmosphere to debate topics and to share ideas about history, practice, theory, and new directions for architecture. Recordings of each forum will be posted as they become available.
This workshop will be a two-hour hands-on tutorial for students who are interested in learning to process their own 35mm or medium format (120mm) black-and-white film in the UTSOA's Darkroom. Students will learn techniques to load the film onto reels and develop film with black-and-white chemistry. Various film speeds and developing times will be covered. Students will learn how to wash and dry film and the proper techniques to preserve negatives.
This hour-long session will be a crash course on how to use analog methods of photography. Participants will be taught how to load, shoot, and unload 35mm black-and-white film in the VRC's Nikon analog cameras. Participants will be provided with rolls of film, courtesy of the VRC.
Participants are encouraged to register for the next VRC Workshop | Black & White Film Developing the following day, where they will learn to develop the negatives from this field trip!
Please join representatives from CollinsWoerman for a presentation on the firm's work, culture, and hiring practices on Tuesday, February 21 at 4:30pm. The event will be held in Goldsmith Hall 2.308 (Dean's Conference Room). A Q&A will follow. Food will be provided courtesy of CollinsWoerman.
Led by local educator and woodworker Kathryn Heitman and green spoon carver Quint Schneider, this workshop demonstrated the basics of wood spoon carving through two methods. Participants designed and produced two spoons, one in the traditional method of hand tools using green wood, and the other using a combination of hand and power tools.
