Come learn about music engineering by building your own instrument. We’ll teach you the basics of how a panpipe makes sound and how to achieve different notes in a musical scale, and you’ll get to select your materials and build an instrument to play a tune of your choice. You can tailor your workshop experience to your interests by exploring different tuning systems, mouthpiece and assembly designs, methods of playing, or recording and analysis. This workshop is for everyone, whether you’re interested in music, engineering, or both!

Join us for a hands-on workshop connecting the historical craft of stamp making in Asian cultures – especially prominent in stone and wood carvings for seals or decorative arts in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia – to modern patterns and technologies. 

In this workshop, led by Briana Chen A'29, participants will explore the histories and practice of Asian patterns in block printmaking, learn to make their own stamp pattern in Adobe Illustrator, and see how a laser engraver can bring their design to life. All are welcome to attend.

Adobe Premiere Pro is an industry-standard software for video editing. Useful for personal, academic, or workplace video projects, Adobe Premiere is available on the computers at Tisch Library's Digital Design Studio (DDS).

In this workshop, taught by Studio Assistant Sada Schumann A27, participants will learn basic features of Premiere and get hands-on practice making a short video from provided video clips. All are welcome to attend.

Digital Scholarship Conversations series is a monthly brown bag hosted by Tisch Library. Each conversation will focus on a different topic, helping us share ideas and build community around the intersection of digital technology and our research and teaching.

Data Carpentry develops and teaches workshops on the fundamental data skills needed to conduct research. Its target audience is researchers who have little to no prior computational experience, and its lessons are domain specific, building on learners' existing knowledge to enable them to quickly apply skills learned to their own research.
