Who’s building this?

a collective digital artwork where each pixel represents one verified citizen, creating a visual representation of human input across multiple nations, while maintaining complete anonymity of the participants.

1. Citizens from participating nations verify their citizenship

2. Each verified person receives an anonymous blockchain account

3. One pixel in the artwork is allocated to each anonymous participant

4. Individual pixel properties (colour and position) are determined by the participants input

5. All identifying data is deleted after verification process.

i found millions of YouTube videos that have default camera names as titles (like IMG_0276) and made it into a website where you can watch random ones.

And what if you regarded your individuation as a crucial element in the unfolding of cosmogenesis on this planet, at this time?

"To me, the real winners are the ones who step out of the game entirely, who don’t even play the game, who rise above it. Those are the people who have such internal mental and self-control and self-awareness, they need nothing from anybody else."

What in your opinion has more impact on prices achieved for art sold as NFTs... the quality of the art... or the amount of promotion and level of prestige of the gallery/auction house and their connections to well known collectors? And I know it is both, but asking which is more.

Does this drawing process fit the category of “Generative art”?

While the market seems to say “I’m lovin’ it”, Art critic @jerrysaltz explains why he does not like the work of @refikanadol

https://t.co/x9dRwZNwFl

[Jerry Saltz @jerrysaltz]

I do not like the work of @refikanadol And I have said exactly why. I love AI art. I love all tools & technologies! I am merely criticizing an artist’s work for what does with their material & tools. Good for you that you love it. I find it mediocre.

@IRLalgo All good, yeah I’ve not been posting anything but have been learning to work with clay the last 6 months—same concept, new medium. I’m working towards a collection of 100 ceramic vases for https://t.co/ycsyazBn1p

This process has been fully transacted on the Algorand blockchain and I'm grateful to the community broadly but especially to the buyer for making the experience a simple and rewarding one.

A dire time for art shows and art in general . Keep making art folks . It all has meaning.

@ihave2hogsjklol gave me goosebumps to... like a really powerful wake-up call to do love deeper and make better art!

@dhowDAO Keep getting caught in the “art vs design” “heart vs mind” “feeling vs thinking” way of seeing— it’s hard to know what we’re talking about when the word “art” is used in so many contexts, looking towards a more precise way to describe something that seems elusive 🙃
