I am exhibiting with some very experienced artists who know their way round a publicity campaign and I’m playing catch-up here with a use of PowerPoint I never could have imagined a few years ago! These are just some of the paintings I’ll be taking and because almost all of them have embedded AR (augmented reality) videos, you might want to get hold of the Artivive app for the full singing, dancing experience. You’ll be able to activate the video once you get your painting home too.

Using Artivive: the AR works by recognising a photograph of the painting and linking that to a video uploaded to the same folder. If the image looks too different from the target in the folder, it may not trigger the video. The solution is often to take a new photo of the painting in its new position – maybe you had it framed under glass for instance – and upload that to be the new target, so let me know if you need me to do that.

Longevity of the AR: this function will remain active for at least two years from the date of purchase, assuming that a) Artivive as a company remains in business, and b) I or a proxy remain able to maintain the necessary account.
