ARTofficial Intelligence: The 6th Annual Robot Exchange
by DANIEL VEINTIMILLA
The robots have decided they admired our spirit and decided to spare us for another year or so. In the meantime, here’s a visual recap of some of the fun work and artists who participated in the 6th Annual Robot Exchange. My apologies to the artists I missed and thank you for participating. It was a truly joyous night.
