PMx will be live-tweeting this weekend at URL Meets IRL | Drinks + Discussion with Electric Objects. Follow us on twitter @PMxPostMeridiem to listen in on the conversation about collecting digital art.

#URLMeetsIRL

A new generation of artists and technologists are evolving our tools for making, viewing, and collecting digital art. The NYC-based Electric Objects team invites participants at their Pop Up Showroom in the lobby of Gray Area Art + Technology's new theater to talk about what we all have in common: a passion for heightening the impact of creativity on the Internet, and the questions that loom as we seek out better tools for the art and artists of the digital age.
