This is an invitation to participate in the Valparaíso International Photography Festival. We are going to do a workshop in hybrid modality. We are going to work 3 sessions online and the last one is a presencial session.

Come and join us for an exciting and fulfilling meeting on building better communication skills through impromptu speaking exercises, listening to prepared speeches, and providing constructive feedback. We run our meetings at lunchtime every other Friday. Email oist.tm@gmail.com if you have any questions or would like to receive further information.

In this course, we will use the Julia programming language that provides many useful abstractions that make GPU computing easier than writing programs in native GPU languages, such as Nvidia's CUDA.

◆Target audience This course is suitable for people with some experience with either Julia or GPU computing in another language (such as C).
