First Friday - The Arts District Las Vegas
But first, there was groundwork to do and momentum to build! Early in March, we spent a week in the Las Vegas Arts District making new friends, building local partnerships, demonstrating AI technology and artistic expression, and promoting The AI Music and Video Festival.
We were invited by the First Friday Foundation to have a booth and showcase AI music and video artists, inaugurating “AI Alley” into the First Friday event held every month in the Arts District of Las Vegas. First Friday has been going on for over 15 years and brings up to 20,000 people and hundreds of artists, booths, vendors, music and more to enjoy outdoors on a Friday evening. Needless to say we had an incredible time, and met so many amazing people!
It was all the more magical to be able to live stream our weekly AI Music Video Show for all of Las Vegas to enjoy as they walked by The “AI Booth” :). The VDJ takeover performance Dezknoph delivered built a crowd of spectators enthralled to hear his blend of psy-dub music mixed over mashed up Ben Nash and fire dancing videos!
City of Las Vegas, Art U OK?
We were honored to be invited by the City of Las Vegas to participate in their second annual Art U OK? event, a day long festival in the heart of the Arts District at the Historic Fifth Street School. Art U OK? is is an annual event focused on supporting and raising mental health awareness. We provided interactive AI video demonstrations and met learners of all ages curious about the intersection of AI technology and artistic expression. VIBE99.7 broadcast live from the event, and Lit Reeezy gave an awesome performance!
