My soul communes equally with pigment pressed into canvas and with luminous pixels conjured from the void - for art, is everything.

Imagine building a contxt machine...
As a kid I always wondered how you were even supposed to look at a painting. It was often too easy to get overwhelmed when there is a lot going on visually. Unfortunately when overwhelmed, you miss most of what makes them good.
So in my quest for more contxt, I built this. A small page, built with @claudeai with insights mostly based off of @Wikipedia, that helps you rabbit hole.

Refik Anadol Studio: "The average amount of time that a visitor spends gazing at 'Unsupervised' is 38 minutes. For comparison, the average viewing time of a typical famous work of art, such as 'Starry Night,' is 27.2 seconds."
While some are skeptical of AI art, former MoMA Director Glenn Lowry says it might be misunderstood. He compares it to the invention of photography 200 years ago. cbsn.ws/4tR1eQ6

I still believe the next generation of globally defining IP will emerge from Web3
Couldn’t have scripted a better season finale tbh.
Strange loops where the artwork contains instructions for its own existence.

NFT platforms should go back to honouring artist royalties. A healthy market isn't just made up of collectors but artists too

Capping the ArtBlocks collection at 500, creates a time capsule of some of the earliest on-chain generative works in one clean, soon to be complete, collection.
This body of work can be now studied, analyzed, dissected and collected in many different ways. It also potentially creates a vehicle to advance the genre of Generative Art. Perhaps a museum or institution will want to showcase this collection to save this moment in time. The possibilities are exciting to consider.
However, those possibilities also mean that there’s a fair bit of risk. @artblocks_io was a destination and a launching point for Generative Art, exposing many, myself included to this genre.
I’m not exactly sure what the future holds for Art Blocks and generative art but I know @ArtOnBlockchain isn’t going anywhere and still feels passionately about this space. Excited for the next chapter.

I honestly loved what @bonafidehan was doing with @0xDecaArt and MVG/Decuration/Gallery/etc etc
suddenly got really nostalgic for those days!

the long-term bull case for NFTs is not another near-term bull run because crypto participants got cyclically rich
it's digital culture store of value assets being seen on-par with or superior to physical culture store of value assets (like high-end art)
i think we'll be there in <10 years (especially with digital trends moving as quickly as they are), but most of you are not that patient tbh
the payoff potential is some individual assets valued at 9 figures USD
