Hand-coded Artist Websites

Matt Nish-Lapidus

Have you wanted to build a web project, or have more control over your own artist website? Join artist Matt Nish-Lapidus to learn how to think about and build websites from the ground up. We will learn the foundations of HTML, CSS, and some basic JavaScript in the context of artist websites and projects. Nish-Lapidus will walk through some of his own web-based projects, and we’ll get hands-on with the underlying technologies—demystifying the web and empowering you to express yourself online.

Workshop participants will have the opportunity to practice some techniques and skills in the workshop, please come prepared with a text editor on your computer and open to experimentation!  Recommended editors are Atom ([https://atom.io]) or VS Code ([https://code.visualstudio.com]), but any text editor (not a word processor) will work.

‍

Matt Nish-Lapidus is an artist, writer, musician, and designer. He makes software, sounds, and texts probing the myth that computers need to be useful rather than beautiful (and learning that maybe they don’t really need to be beautiful either). Matt’s interests lie in the poetics of computation and its proclivity to create meaningful relations through recombination. Matt holds a Master of Visual Studies in Studio Art from The University of Toronto and has performed and exhibited at ACUD Macht Neu (Berlin), Electric Eclectics Festival (Meaford, Ontario), InterAccess (Toronto), Mayhem (Copenhagen), and many DIY spaces in North America and Europe. You can find Matt online and away-from-keyboard under various aliases and collaborations including emenel, New Tendencies, må, and <blink>.

Gallery 44 acknowledges that it is situated on stolen land. On the ancestral and traditional territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe and the Huron-Wendat, who are the original owners and custodians of this land that they continue to inhabit today.

Acknowledging the land on which we work and create is an important first step towards truth and reconciliation, however, much more needs to be done by settlers, by our government, and by us as arts practitioners to educate ourselves and others, and to endeavor to end ongoing colonial violence.

During this global pandemic, it is important to acknowledge that Indigenous communities in Canada continue to live under increasingly inequitable conditions.
