Mix-Tape took about one year from brainstorming to finished experience, with just six months of physical installation.
-
The original Factory Obscura team who built Mix-Tape consisted of around 30 artists, including muralists, painters, sculptors, textile artists, poets & writers, movement artists, light & sound artists, actors, musicians, and more ranging in age from 20-something to 60-something. An army of community volunteers also participated in the making of Mix-Tape. Mix-Tape continues to grow and evolve over time, with new additions and new artists, with contributions from over 100 artists over time.
-
Artists were originally sought out by the five founders of Factory Obscura and brought to a mysterious meeting, where they each decided if this was a project they wanted to be a part of. Since then, artists have been added on a project-by-project basis, slowly and intentionally expanding the skill set of our team.

No. The Flaming Lips formerly rented this building as a gallery/storage/party space. We took over the lease in 2018 and completely redesigned the interior to create the Mix-Tape experience. The building murals were commissioned by the Flaming Lips, and we added the giant boombox, window graphics, and front porch.
