ARTOMATIC was a 2 day event and celebration of arts at the Historic Victory Grill during the East Austin Studio Tour (E.A.S.T.) . The event was an art market, concert, and art show.
The event featured laser projection bombing, multimedia,bad ass music, high fives, and a 24 hr paint session.
Special shouts out to our friend Arthur who helped a bunch and had a booth set up with hiss designed tees…sorry we missed it with the photos, next time man.

Late night painting
Here are some shots of the laser bombing. As you caan see from the picture below , the laser pointer’s canvas is actually set up behind the painting being collaborated. The camera would follow and track the lasers movements on the canvas which was then projected onto buildings. It was fun to see people get so lost in trying to create legible letters using a laser pointer…good times.
