The people of Austin, Texas are no strangers to rapid growth. But that growth has come at a cost. For decades now, Austin has been losing
precious cultural heritage and local businesses to profit-hungry developers.
We worked with the youth nonprofit organization E4 Youth to create Lostin, an art installation with the intent to bring some of that culture back and preserve it for generations to come. Located in downtown Austin during the week of SXSW, this modified vending machine contains collectible relics from Austin’s past – reimagined products based on lost minority-owned Austin businesses and institutions left behind by time.
All proceeds from Lostin went towards the E4 Youth. Which meant that each item that was purchased from these metal shelves not only kept Austin’s storied past alive, but also helped to fund programs for some of Austin’s diverse youth.
