This past July, internationally-lauded Spanish artist Felipe Pantone unveiled his Configurable Art platform that allows online users to create unique artworks using a variety of elements inspired by Pantone’s signature motifs such as computer glitches, jagged grids, and more. This time around, the artist presents a special collaboration on the platform with legendary artist Futura. The co-designed installment sees the graffiti pioneer’s ubiquitous visuals such as atoms, drops, skyfalls, and new renditions of the iconic Pointman merge with Pantone’s visual components.

All of these motifs will be available to build online at the Configurable Art website from October 1 until October 31. View teaser images shared by the artists in the Instagram posts below. In related news, take a look at this week’s best art drops.
