Episode 1391: Ami Plasse

Hello friends! New York born, Austin based, visual and motion artist Amitai "Ami" Plasse is my guest for episode 1391! Ami's energetic live music animations have captured the spirit of Austin's live music culture. From his gonzo-style live iPad animations to live mural drawings backstage at ACL Fest and more. You can see Ami's work on Instagram or his website gonzoviz.com. We have a great conversation about growing up in New York, his years drawing people on the subway which turned into a book AmiUnderground, Drawings from the NYC Subways: 2007-2011, moving to Austin in 2011, Ralph Steadman, live drawings at shows, The Austin Music Awards, ACL Fest, working as an animator on Richard Linklater's "Apollo 10 1/2", being inspired by Austin's music scene and much more. I had a great time getting to know Ami. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
