Had a wonderful time speaking at @zerospace for the DatLab + TouchDesigner one-year anniversary event in New York — I got to share a bit about @iheartkcr 's journey and how we bootstrapped our way into existence at the intersection of art, community, and culture.
Thank you @blankensmithing & @dotsimulate for having me!
