Punto y Raya Festival

[Synthetik]

This isn't really Studio Artist specific, but i thought fans of abstract animation might find this interesting.  The Punto y Raya Festival is launching it's US tour of 10 cities. The festival, which claims to be the 'most abstract in the world', explores the creative possibilities of dots and lines.  The excerpts in the trailers might give you some interesting ideas for things to pursue with abstract generative animation in Studio Artist. And if the festival is coming to your neighborhood and you enjoy abstract animation go and check it out.

I love the patterns series on her site you posted. If she isn't into Studio Artist you should really turn her on to MSG, i think she would really gravitate to the MSG Evolution editor.

I showed her SA 3.5 & MSG Evolver, but she only has a PC. I haven't had a chance to show her SA4 yet, although she has seen some videos I made with it, and she knows SA rocks!

Studio Artist 4 runs fine on PC now as well as Mac so she should definitely check it out.
