"She had a story to tell."
"3rd Floor", the first mint of the Detours series has sold out. I have a lot of fun things planned for this project but being the first to support will always hold a special place!
Thank you so much...

I just minted "why won't you let me go" by @paper_tripp which is now live on @TransientLabs. Minting now! https://t.co/Rt9u3FNEMp
@wizardofsoho@evincowinerydao Damn, I was treating it kind of like a cellar. Had a couple of gold passes that I never cashed in on. Looks like Iβll need to plan a trip to Napa though.
@lifewithart_ This bugs me a bit too. I truly don't care if an artist uses AI or even gives AI complete creative control... but own it, say it out loud.
Alright I'm not calling the ETH bottom but we're going to do all of this again in 2027 so I just bought all the ETH to fund the https://t.co/wISHDU4gtB initiative for next year too.
It'll look different, maybe more patronage, but the amount ($100k) and idea of supporting more artists is the same. I've loved how all of this has gone, far exceeding my expectations, and I'll do an update soon.
Here's the txn for my haters π€£π«: https://t.co/J2dpGXMMS7
The worst part about AI glazing me is that I find myself glazing back...

We are all here for a series of reasons and that stack is weighted and prioritized differently for each of us.
For me, the relationships carry a lot of weight and is near the top (if not the very top). So when I connect with someone, it means a LOT.
Getting to know @degenpain has been an honor and an inspiration. He sees the world in a wonderful way and it comes through in his art and artistic practice.
Sometimes there are pieces that land in your collection that force you to realize how incomplete your collection really was. It may not be perfect, but my collection is infinitely better now that I have "the only way is up" by DP.
Thank you my friend for the light you bring to this little part of the world!!!
It is definitely an odd vibe lately. We all feel the crypto walls closing in. At a macro level everything is getting institutionalized (no fun) and every bit of news seems to be bad or boring. A lot of people that are all in on crypto are leaving (or at least asking themselves why they are here).
But... within the creative crypto community it feels the opposite. Something new and novel every day. Artists are pushing themselves to not just do something different but truly evolve themselves and their work. More intention, more depth, less hype, less fluff.
I know we aren't immune to the greater crypto environment (nor should we be... it is part of our ethos) but this feels like a pivotal moment. The default would be for the community to crumble but IF it strengthens instead, it means the foundation of something really cool has been established.
Anyway, here is more art...
