Photos: XOXO, An Arts and Technology Festival in Portland Celebrating Disruptive Creativity

XOXO 2012

Last month I had the pleasure of attending XOXO, an amazing arts and technology festival in Portland, OR organized by Andy Baio and Andy McMillan that was a celebration disruptive creativity. Here are the photos I shot of the four days of XOXO, including a tour of the wonderful headquarters of Panic Software, a visit to Ground Kontrol video game arcade, a fantastic party on the rooftop of Wieden+Kennedy and a closing party hosted by Etsy.

XOXO was by far one of the best conferences I’ve ever attended. I hope they do it again next year!
