Layer Tennis is a series of live design events hosted by Coudal Partners and presented by Adobe Creative Suite 3.

Two artists (or two small teams of artists) swap a file back and forth in real-time, adding to and embellishing the work. Each artist or team gets fifteen minutes to complete a “volley.” Each volley is posted to the Layer Tennis site. A third participant provides play-by-play commentary on the action, as it happens. Observers can follow it all on the web. There are ten volleys, and when the match is complete, everyone with an opinion sounds off in the forums and a winner is declared.

Matches take place on Fridays at 2PM CST. You can learn more or watch a match here.
