Welcome to CyberARTS

Hello CyberARTists.

We've talked a little bit about rasters and vectors. Your first task is to explore a little bit more about this topic and create a new post on your new blog about it. Add the link to your posting and write a brief paragraph about something new that you learned from the reading.

Here are a few links to get you started. Feel free to explore further, or find your own information. Remember to post the original link in your actual posting.

Have fun! Now go learn and share something new.

The "Niem Team" @ Camp VJ 2010

The "Niem team" (that's what they called us), with Journalist Alison Garwood-Jones as part of our multimedia team on day 2.

Your intrepid cyberartist (and Nick) had the chance to spend three days at the Toronto Star this week at a workshop on digital journalism. There they are hard at work on their multimedia piece which stole the show called "Street Meat".

Check it out on Niem's Journalism blog here. By the way, we won first prize for the blog beauty contest and I think it goes without saying that our video stole the show as well.

BTW - Camp VJ stands for Visual Journalism.
