Delighted to say I managed to finish this piece before the end of the year!
'Ascension II' is my latest programmable artwork, once again making use of @TransientLabs excellent Dynamic Art Engine.
Here's a preview π

The rumour has it there are two documentaries to possibly learn about the Cult: one for the novices, welcoming and reliable, and one for those who seek truth through distorted mirrors.

The Lisbon Museums opened their June tradition to document the traditional altars to Saint Anthony, the patron of Lisbon, to digital artists. Four artists were invited to create digital altars in their style for @NFCsummit: @BardIonson @BoyaGeorge @alnboltn and @DefiantSquid whose works will be included in their annual publication. Congrats to you four for taking a century-old popular tradition into the digital realm!

At all be careful. Apparently @bygrida account has been hacked

We do not have a sizeable audience but hoping this reaches who it needs to. It seems @bygrida is hacked/account is compromised.
Tagging people who follow her to hopefully spread the word @johnkarp @nf_suzanne @NaughtalieStone @redbeardnft @MathieuFrance

It made me cry, both of these documentaries, documenting the heart and history of crypto art, in all languages and weirdness that we all love.

Apparently it's been 10 whole years since I (very briefly) flew a helicopter over the M40 and scared some sheep...
Anyone want to give me a lend of theirs so I can get my hours up? π¨ββοΈ

Little chaotic @NFCsummit dump π
It was one of my favourite NFT events ever. The new venue, the maturing of the space, the mix of old and new friends, something really great happened here. So first kudos to @johnkarp @OmletteMerve @flakoubay and the whole of NFC for this.

Yesterday at the @inkseart Lounge, we hosted one of our beloved formats: Meet the Artist.
Collectors gathered for close conversations with @MattiaC , @MLOdotArt and @BoyaGeorge , discussing their work, practice, and ideas in an intimate setting.
And today we continued with @dmitricherniak and his amazing LED sculpture.
Always one of our favorite moments: hearing directly from the artists and creating space for genuine dialogue around the work.
