For the second year in a row, Rora Team, yet again, formulated and threw a show that is one for the books. In the midst of the Anime Expo madness, located in a downtown Los Angeles lofty room, RorAX'17 started the night with a knocking Brackets set, throwing in shifty beats and drumming bass, bringing in the crowd's attention by the minute. Then producer, Folie, shifted things into a melodic mood with his jazzy piano ballads and exquisite originals throughout the entire set. All perfectly in the evening, for a complete four hours straight, the music was seeping through the windows over looking the busy streets and the cheers of the audience echoing throughout the building causing a warning or two. Sets by artists like gupi, Mitomoro, and DJ Clickbait all offered a variety of heavy hyper bass and gripping tracks that left us sweating the begging for more. On the other hand, Omniboi delivered a groovy set composed of older goodies and newer tunes we all adore and love. Within the last hours of the night, a special performance from Shiki and Hentai Dude gave the show edge with their wild rap verses and a mix of hip-hop endeavors. To finish the Sunday evening, the sweet and enchanting sounds from Moe Shop gave the perfect ending to a heart filled event. Aside from the diverse tastes in music, the artist pop-up shop was more than successful with everyone crowding the tables to take a look and cop what you can only find at events like these. The Rora Team continuously contributes and inspires the people around them with each show that brings people of all together. There is just something about them that they have the gift of getting any room and inject it with an energy of positivity and love. Truly ready for next year, we can't wait to see where and what they do next! Below check out our recap of the night via photo gallery and recap video! Enjoy!
Great place, wonderful food with modern ambiance and comfortable seating with plenty of room. It is now probably one of the best Chicago event space in my list. Perfect food, great decor and vibrant atmosphere.

How long have you been creating art? idk What is your typical process for creating a virtually immersive piece? A typical animation requires the artist to frame the action and only create what is within the frame. This type of framing allows for very strong storytelling because every frame introduces a meaningful element or event and each frame is isolated from the other by a cut. In my case, the process is clos…
