Participants meet in the Front Square at NCAD. You should bring a small selection of plant material for the workshop. Phytography is a technique invented by Karel Doing that makes it possible to create detailed chemical traces of plants directly on photographic emulsion. The process takes place in full daylight and makes use of biodegradable chemistry. During the workshop the artist will explain his technique, placing it in a historical lineage of experimental photography and film while also connecting it to ecological awareness. After this introduction, a hands-on demonstration is provided. Participants can create their own images and see the results in projection. The workshop will begin with a visit to NCAD FIELD, a 0.4 hectare site adjacent to the campus which was ‘guerilla composted’ in the last decade and now is a wild and biodiverse haven in the inner city. NCAD FIELD operates ‘rhizomatically’ serving staff and students across all College departments with established courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level, while also interfacing with expanded communities of place and interest in Dublin city and beyond.

Birthday Show & Album Fundraiser: Come celebrate with us at the Elgin Theatre Guild for an unforgettable night of fun music! This show has 2 main objectives: 1) It's my birthday on November 16th and I would love nothing more than to share some beautiful music with some beautiful people...like you! Join us. Feel the love, feel the joy, feel the inspiration. 2) In March of this year, I reached my goal of writing 100 songs. The idea was to write 100, pick the best of the best and make an album with my selections. Well, I am officially in the studio and my producers and I are hard at work crafting what I believe is my best album yet. What they don't tell you is that albums are expensive to make. Be part of the story, the journey, the myth, of why it came to fruition. At this show, I will be featuring, live, a large selection of tunes off of the record, which means that 120 of you will get to hear the songs before anyone else. I am also bringing along my 4 piece band for this show, which means you will feel the full impact of said songs. You'll get a taste of a couple top secret special guests as well. During the breaks, take part in the 50/50 draw, the silent auction, and buy some merch, all of which go to the cause (making the album). I'd love for you to be there! It's going to be a night to remember, so mark your calendars and invite your friends for a fantastic evening of entertainment. See you there! Information Source: Elgin Theatre Guild | eventbrite
