I'd like to share "God Speed to the Terminal"
stored as entry 39 on vault 9994 of @thevesseldotfun
with @m0dest___ 's permission I overlayed some music and visualization to their "God Speed" daily.
I miss summers on PNW beaches, feeling the chilly water while looking out towards the sunset. It reminded me that life causes us to drift apart at times, but all of us are still connected.
If your curious about learning more about Dav and his practice as well as our shared passion for building The Vessel then tune in tomorrow here on X: https://t.co/tZO29f1PYp
I feel that I’m one of the most active and educated curators in our ecosystem.
I educate, build, design, write, ideate, share, execute, and everything in between.
I operate at both edges of the art world, whether that be traditional art fairs or on-chain environments where the blockchain itself becomes the medium.
I travel from Marfa to Miami for years now as well as other places like San Fransisco for Node. I still believe nothing beats IRL experiences.
I’ve participated in more than 20 art fairs and collected hundreds of NFTs across the ecosystem.
I've streamed 22 episodes on X bringing on all types of artists to dive deeper into their work, process, and ideas.
I’ve taken risks and helped bring many of the beloved artists in our ecosystem to their first exhibition with Vertu Fine Art while laying out significant money to do so. I’ve also worked to create opportunities for emerging artists to present their work and build on-chain through The Vessel.
I’ve collected across many platforms, including @SuperRare, @verse_works, @fellowshiptrust and @TransientLabs, and have rarely sold anything. I believe in supporting artists and platforms for the long term.
I collect across all mediums (physical and digital) with a niche focus on fully on-chain artworks and prints.
I nerd out over blockchain architecture, smart-contracts, ai workflows, design, and process.
I’ve written so many articles about artists and artworks, both those I’ve been directly involved with and those I haven’t, simply because I love what I do.
I started building and publishing my own work to fill a void that I felt needed to exist.
Curation is changing, and what it means to be a curator is rapidly evolving.
I hope to be one example of how to contribute in a positive way, give more than you take, and leave behind a legacy worth preserving.
I'm not afraid to go agaisnt the grain, be critical, and stand up for what I believe in.
A few artists, collectors, and builders took a chance on me and my vision early on.
I hope to do the same for many others in our ecosystem.
It’s still early days. I’ve only been in crypto since 2017 and NFTs since 2020.
The ecosystem is currently young, nascent, and immature.
The only way forward is to build the future you care about, block out the noise, and publish at the speed of light.
The community we’ve built around @thevesseldotfun is inclusive, welcoming, and accessible (still minting).
The shows we've produced with @VertuFineArt gives artists reach, oppurtunities, and new ways to think about and sell there work.
If you want to learn, grow, fail, experiment, and become a more well-rounded on-chain contributor, then join me in my pursuit.
Feel free to DM me or join The Vessel discord with any questions or inquiries.

funny that even as timewalker, I'm starting to realize I don't have as much time as I'd like for all the different projects I want to work on.
No matter how async I get, I'll always be around and I'm never going to stop creating.
It will all come together. 🙏
