Collaborative art car build at Maker Faire Austin

David Pescovitz 1:56 pm Thu Oct 11, 2007

At the upcoming Maker Faire Austin, October 20-21, art car hero Harrod Blank will help visitors transform a Toyota Matrix into a music-themed artwork on wheels. Blank is perhaps best known for his Camera Van, seen here. Check out the announcement on the MAKE: blog for suggestions on music-related detritus that you can bring to contribute to the group build! From the MAKE: blog post:

The art car is going to be featuring images from album covers, sheet music, photos, guitar picks, and more. We are looking for your donations–get creative and bring that box of old music memorabilia to the HEYA Activity Pavilion and join the fun!
