On december 11, 2021 we gave a sneak peek of what it's like to be in Flashparty every year in Tecnopolis (great fair in Argentina). We had live shows by Cid Smpldr and Petsciicola, a talk about Text Art by Arlequin, Don Epifanio and Mr. Roboto and an exhibit of selected work from the latest Flashparty.
