🙏🏼 We’re delighted to welcome two works by pioneering generative artist @jeffgdavis into the Collection Francisco Carolinum: Color Study #366 and Color Study #516, generously donated to our Ethereum collection. With a background in both mathematics and art, Davis has explored color and geometric structure through computational and generative systems for decades. opensea.io/item/ethereum/0xa…

The thesis is so simple: There’s no better way to own digital art and collectibles than via decentralized blockchain provenance.

Something is stirring in NFT and digital art, and if you can’t feel it you’re not paying attention. Artists hanging in museums. On billboards. Stunning commissions. Bleeding into TCGs and across culture itself. This isn’t hype anymore. It’s infiltration. And the ones still here? They’re not fucking leaving. Ever. They survived the bear, the mockery, the obituaries, and they’re still building, still minting, still showing up every single day. Credit where credit is due. This is a family. A dysfunctional, chaotic, beautiful fucking family. And families like that don’t quit. We are early. And we are going to make it.

I have loved this property since I was a young boy. Owned by famed Astronomer Carl Sagan, this “tomb” sat empty for years perched on the cliff edge adjacent to Cornell University. I was thankful to acquire this historic property from Mrs. Sagan last year and will renovate this to be a meeting/thinking place for digital artists from around the world. I have entrusted the design of this project to legendary architect firm I.M PEI to help bring this property to its full glory. Anticipated completion date: late 2027…. – at Ithaca, NY

The Manifesto and The Network are my two most important creations and neither is a visual artwork. When the meaning of the work overrides the aesthetic, people stop seeing cyber neons and start seeing the thread. Once visual fragments, now a mature and ever growing body of work.

Art has always priced on three things: provenance, story, and cultural relevance and on chain ownership doesn't replace any of them. On the contrary, NFTs upgrade all three.

Dear friends, we are thrilled to unveil our latest exhibition—Latent City—at the BRUSK Museum in Bruges! ✨ Using a rich, ethically sourced archive of millions of publicly available images and cultural documents, we painted a living, dreaming portrait of this beautiful city. Latent City is a real-time Living Data Sculpture. By analyzing the continuous, pulsing rhythms of Bruges—from weather fluctuations to transportation patterns—we use AI as a thinking brush, allowing the artwork to continuously dream and hallucinate as the city breathes around it. Deepest gratitude to the wonderful city of Bruges, the incredible team at BRUSK, and our visionary curator,for your unwavering support in bringing this dream to reality. 🙏

Interesting observation. If you want to tell people about digital art and they are sceptical, just show them MOMA videos of the Refik Anadol piece. EVERYBODY immediately freaks out. Same goes for Winds of Yawanawa.
