I think I might be here for the art.π€ Mostly.π
A recent physical πΌ purchase set ME straight. Mostly.π
Not saying what anyoneβs NFT priorities should be.
Just sharing MY experience as maybe a helpful example of relying on familiar territory to navigate a new space.π
Everydays are easy. Anyone can do it, right?
What constitutes an achievement? 1 year? 5 years? 10 years?
Creating art is easy. Anyone can do it, right?
What constitutes an achievement? Sharing it? Minting it?
Thereβs this guy. Mike Winkelmann. He did all of the above for 17 straight years.
Somewhere along the way it took hold. Itβs not that heβs the first. (Heβd probably say) itβs not that heβs the best. But he did the damn thing for 17 years.
Something funny happened. Many began to take inspiration from the practice. Itβs like a coaching tree. So much now stems from @beeple.
Todayβs design froze me. It represents something I fear is impossible to capture in a visual. Time passes. Slowly and then all at once. Beeple is indelibly imprinted on it. Rightfully so.
Anyone who captures culture for 17 years, rain or shine, in the public eye, deserves a nod.
To the man that has chopped wood and carried water - we see you. 24 Hours of Art would not be here in its current form without you.
GM Dear Universe, I did a thing!π§²πPleased to share that after 2 years, I minted my 2nd piece on @SuperRare π€

@RogerDickerman@justinwetch Phew! I know it took a little bit, but had to wait for the right opportunity to do it justice.
With great power, there must also come great responsibility.
