this is my new go-to NFT reading recommendation. really well researched and nuanced article with lots of real-world references from someone with a ton of experience in digital art.
I wrote an essay about the many problems with NFTs. Thanks to all the readers who gave feedback. Image credit: Bored Horses Stable Club, a website by Phil Braun. qotile.net/nft/

I'm looking for a (preferably local – MN) electrical engineer who I can hire to help me work on some audio circuits (and can accommodate/work within an artist's non-traditional ideas). Know anyone? @RayKampmeier @MohitBhoite

The headwaters of the Mississippi flows out of a beautiful park— Itasca. Why would we want to pump 915,000 barrels a day of tar sands oil through it? #StopLine3

The Processing Foundation Fellowship Program is currently accepting applications. This program is really special to me because it's where @p5xjs began! The program is about learning, imagining new ideas of community, and supporting people exploring what they don't already know.
