Have you had a moment in time, where you get a glimpse of what the future might like look? Well, Beeple Studios is the future, a Disneyland of visuals and vibes, and it's beautifully fascinating.
Beeple Studios 🏁 Museum of digital art 🔥 a 50,000-square-foot in-person digital art gallery and experience, inviting technology + creative expression through immersive experiential art.
Top 8 Most Memorable Experience:
- Beeple is THE BEST HOST. He was extremely gracious, generous, humble and fun. Actively engaging with and encouraging the artist competing and attendees as well. The event was completely FREE (must be on guest-list/holder to attend), and also included free drinks + bites.
- HUGE Spacious Cutting Edge Gallery, the magnitude of the technology behind this space is full NASA status. The crowd was a friendly mix of people happily experiencing unique art together. Which leads me to the question, What came first the art? or the space to create the art? Cause I felt super inspired being there.
- Beeple's personal work station: A living room of sorts into Beeple's computer education and the technological enhancements alongside it. This area was naturally was a gathering place for people, and conversations.

GIANT Print of Everydays Wall: This thing is massively impressive and we're happy to say we located 1st Everyday design of "Uber Jay."
As a reminder: “Everydays — The First 5,000 Days” piece sold as an NFT for $69.3 million in March 2021. It was the first purely digital artwork ever offered at Christie’s auction house — and remains the most expensive NFT sold to a single person." - Two Walking Spaceman "Human One" Lifesize artwork that dynamically changes the physical and NFT via remote control, art that literally continues to evolve in an instance or never.
- Appreciating art alongside the Greats: Life like masked men with human like eyes silently admiring the art, right with you. We hungout with Andy Warhol, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Pablo Picasso, and Elon Musk. Lots of ohhhs and ahhs around these characters.
-
Educational + Supportive Community of Creators:
Beeple showcased the works of over 200 emerging artist at the event across the big screens. Anyone and everyone is encouraged to submit their work in advance, to be featured. He also hosts amazing talks, panels, and student showcases to help empower the next generation of artists. Beeple studios feels like a supportive community of creators wanting the best for each other. We found the space to be one of expansiveness and creative flow. - Digital Art Death Set Up: Over 40 artist competed! This set up was like anything I could have ever imagined. The ability to showcase multiple designers creating simultaneously, while the art is live + viewable across hundreds of screens, with an active audience participating (voting for art in live polls on X) was mindblowing. If only everything could be this seamlessly coordinated. Also to see how a graphic designer works across a keyboard is a work of art in itself.

Surprise Art Treasures: psst it's a surprise, but at times there have been printers hidden in the ceiling that drop art prints on guests. In this instance it was limited numbered prints from each round of competitors in the Digital Art Deathmatch. I was luckily enough to score a few prints from the Champion @Joshua_Brockett of his winning work "Downfall."
As the Digital Art Deathmatch Ultimate Champion Joshua received a check for $5000 + an epic Trophy, and a wrestling belt!!

Beeple has shuttle pickups from both downtown Charleston and Daniel Island. It's another 11min shuttle ride to studios from Daniel Island to an industrial area outside of town.

We took the Beeple shuttle from Daniel Island and enjoyed The Kingtide rooftop bar beforehand. 3/3 would recommend.
