BYOB – or Bring Your Own Beamer – is a worldwide phenomena conceived by Berlin-based artists RafaĆ«l Rozendaal and Anne de Vries. Events have been staged in hundreds of cities across the world – and now – Canterbury.
WHEN: Sunday 20th March, Workshop 16:00-19:00, DJ Set 19:00-20:30, Tom Vek 20:30-21:30
WHERE: The Venue
Film-makers, photographers, visual artists, and everyone with an image to share, are invited to participate by bringing their own “beamer” (the European word for projector) for a night of live experimentation and collaboration.
The evening will culminate in a live audio-visual performance by award-winning DIY multi-instrumentalist Tom Vek. Featuring stripped-down and re-appropriated tracks from his 3 album lo-fi electro-rock repertoire, the set will feature his own brand of bold graphic synchronised visuals.
Bring your own projector – or come to our Build Your Own Beamer workshop directly before, from 16:00-19:00, where we will show you how to make your own projector, from just a paperclip, a shoebox and a magnifying glass.
Extension leads provided. Analogue and digital projectors welcome (bring your own computer).
