Nando Costa used his slot to demonstrate music's role at OFFF by teaming up with The Plastiq Phantom, who played live digital music during his talk. Costa talked about Influences of Brazil, a collaborative project with his wife, and showcased some mind-blowing work past and present, including his first After Effects project, which was awesome.
By sampling the audience live at the end and turning it into a tune Plastiq Phantom/Costa utilised a great opportunity to interact with the crowd. The combination of his laidback Brazilian style, exceptional artwork and the handing out of a truckload of freebies made his talk one of the highlights of OFFF 2006.
