So earlier today a good friend and tech influencer said, "you're an internet art darling." We thought that was the funniest way we had been described ever.
Were not so sure if we fit in the category of "internet art darling" but we are really excited about being in the category of Top Contributor under Tumblr's coveted #ART section! One thing we agreed on with our tech influencer friend was he noted "that's some good company"

It also propelled our social media stock all the way up! Over 2000 notes in less than 24 hours and over 200 followers in 15 minutes. The post that started it all was when we blogged about artist Megan Geckler, who had an installation up in our space at the time.
