Dungeon Hacker is a group illustration show at Diode Gallery, and an augmented reality dungeon crawler all rolled up into one. The show features original illustrations by Dan Cohen, Ryan Johnson, Andy Lunday and Gabe Shaughnessy and will be on display at Diode Gallery during the months of February and March, 2015.
By scanning the illustrations in the show with Layar, visitors can play an interactive game. You will choose a player, pick up enchanted items and face terrible monsters as you hack and slash your way through the gallery in augmented reality.

  • Andy LundayAndy Lunday

    Andy Lunday is a Portland, OR based artist, illustrator, and designer from Helena, MT. He sees an elaborate visual connection between old hand lettered signage, gardening, office supplies, and coffee that he hasn’t quite cracked. He gets his inspiration from bike rides and long walks during which he likes to see what’s blooming and judge the landscaping of your home. Strangers are always asking him for directions which he gladly gives whether he knows the way or not. Visit Andy’s website.

    You can usually find Gabe geeking out on some art installation, interface or web application, using a toolset that ranges from paint to pixels. His passion is story-telling, and making those stories interactive, so he leverages his experience as a web developer and background in visual art to craft one-of-a-kind experiences on the web, out in the world, and in augmented reality.
