Augmenting Art - Lessons in Extending Reality

Description:

Using our experiences working in augmented reality we'll discuss projects we've worked on and the successes and failures we've experienced along with where we'd like to take our art.

We feel lucky to live in a time when technology is truly opening the doors to multi-disciplinary artists. Artists can now bridge the physical and digital worlds by producing work that seamlessly integrates both. We can combine oil paintings with animation, art prints with motion graphics, clothing with AR mantras, and can reveal another layer of beautiful digital fantasy onto an entire physical space. Creating art in AR has been an incredibly gratifying experience, and we're looking forward to tackling the endless opportunities that now present themselves.
