Realitycraft Workshops Coming Soon
New books are coming, first the cookbook followed by the next edition of the generative media books and the new guidebook. Invitations to come together this season and in the new year! Learn with me: December 27th, join me for a free Visionary Video workshop, 1 hour intro-level open session where we'll be diving into the Luma AI Dream Machine and how I use media tools for storytelling and video creation. This section will be recorded and I hope you can join me in person - I will stay for Q&A to help you get started with a mix of video methods and media creation workflows. Visit my public calendar at http://lu.ma/Realitycraft to sign up for free events including the Visionary Video 1 hour free collab, a quick intro for those of you who want to get started for free. For a sample of what these workshops entail, watch my last session at https://youtu.be/ijOP_6WSBBA with the cohort ending this week that has been working on ecovillage and disaster rebuilding efforts. We include one lecture, one Q&A & an interactive session every week. Generative Video opens the year as a 2 day Quickstart workshop on Jan 2-3 for those who want a quick and deep dive into turning your existing art into videos and animated sequences, shorts and other media with a mix of AI and traditional mediamaking methods: https://maven.com/realitycraft/genvid/ compresses all of my video promptcraft workshops into a quick 2 day sprint, where you will quickly get started making your own shorts. Workshop Cohorts are on Maven to help keep track of lessons and videos along with additional resources and reading, but we also use Notion & Discord as a part of these workshops to help you stay organized and up to date. When you sign up for the cohort you'll be invited into the Discord & Notion community resources for your ongoing R&D support. Generative Creativity & Worldbuilding is now open as a cohort for January, part of my workshop series of courses - this is a 6 week world design cohort similar to the one I'm just wrapping now where we start with promptcraft and end with NeRFs, splats and how to build worlds with your vision, art and media assets. https://maven.com/realitycraft/creators/ For the first few people who sign up with the XRCreators code you'll get 10% off through the end of the year, perfect to give to the creators in your life. This is a huge value and the lowest cost I'll be offering the full workshop cohort for the coming year, so get in now if you're interested in exploring how to build your own world, experience, game or physical space using a mix of XR & AI tools. If we are new or old friends who haven't been in touch for ages, https://evoheyning.my.canva.site/ will give you a bit of a sense of who I am and what I've been working on this year. I teach a few hundred people a year how to build immersive, interactive and live workflows with their media, art and new products and I give 10-30 talks or hosted panels a year in addition to writing, making art and worlds with friends and collaborators. I work to build an equitable, safe and fair commons where everyone can thrive and build the worlds they want to create and live within; we approach technical work and all things technology with the lens of ethics, responsible engagement and appropriate uses to build and rebuild equitable systems. Sometimes this work includes advocating for safety or transparency when none exists. The new Evo.ist website and store will be up in a few weeks with a refreshed update and new items to share and you can check out my work in the documentary AI Evolution out on streamers as well. (evo the human wrote this - sorry so long, there's a lot of events & workshops coming up as well including the MetaTraversal Portal Crawl, for those of you who want to jump through the immersive worlds with me in VR on Dec 30th)
New gallery and portfolio is now up! Feel free to send this to colleagues looking for a consulting partner, training ally and producer for new endeavors - anything immersive, interactive, generative and/or participatory, especially worldchanging efforts, worldwide
