The pavilion was designed by GCSE students during a workshop led by Scale Rule in February.

Superseded
VHS players may no longer be in production but possibilities for continued experimentation with this medium abound. Members of Black Hole Club exhibit a range of works that consider outdated technologies. On Sunday 2 July Ollie MacDonald-Brown and Sarah Walden will lead a workshop on how to build a ‘dirty video mixer’ from scratch. This device, first developed by Karl Klomp, is used for mixing two analogue video signals.
30 June – 7 July 2017, Vivid Projects, 16 Minerva Works, 158 Fazeley Street, Birmingham B5 5RT.
