Media, compression and algorithms: Understanding file formats by breaking them

Media, compression and algorithms: Understanding file formats by breaking them In-Person

Confused about the differences between various export options? Through low-stakes creative activities, we’ll learn about how algorithms in media formats like jpeg, mp3 and gif work by stretching their properties to their limits, revealing artifacts that showcase underlying processes. We'll then talk through selecting the right export options for your creative media projects and answer any questions you might have for your own personal projects.
