Cartoonist Tinet Elmgren and artist/illustrator/vj Ilan Katin (also known as the community man from Garagecube) will present TagTool at the Small Press Expo (SPX) 2011. TagTool is a DIY kit for drawing and animating live. Come and see how it works and try it out. Tinet has made an informative blog page where you can learn more about TagTool (in Swedish). We will put together an informal VJ Union gathering at SPX so watch out for upcoming blog post and Facebook event.

SPX is held at Kulturhuset, Stockholm may 6-8. TagTool will be shown on the 7th and the 8th of May in Studio 3 every hour for 15 minutes as paus entertainment. We will get back with a more specific schedule.

I started VJing in 2003 after being introduced to the topic by my friend, the digital artist, Marius Watz. “My style can be expressed as intensively colorful compositions with rhythm based animations of images and particles combined with a modest amount of video loops. I try not to continuously fill upp the whole screen with graphics in an attempt to illuminate the feel of a square screen. I work mostly with my own material that occasionally gets mixed up with stuff from the lost and found department. I like programming my own modules for Modul8, my favorite VJ software.”
