This is what almost a decade in VR will evolve your process into

Announcing 8NAP Management Today marks the formal introduction of 8NAP Management. This is a focused, artist-first management practice built on a simple but often overlooked principle: great art deserves thoughtful stewardship. We exist to serve the long-term success of the artist. Not through volume, noise, or opportunistic positioning, but through disciplined strategy, thoughtful execution, and a deep respect for both the work and the collector. We believe that: • Trust is the foundation of value. Every decision, from release cadence to collector outreach, must reinforce credibility and long-term confidence. • Artists are not content engines. They are builders of culture, and their work should be positioned with care, context, and purpose. • Every release is intentional. Timing, context, and relevance to the artist’s broader body of work guide how and when work is brought forward. • Short-term attention is not the goal. Enduring relevance is. 8NAP Management is designed to maximize impact; for the artist, for their collectors, and for the broader ecosystem in which they operate. Our role is deliberate: To guide without overreaching. To advise with clarity and conviction. To protect the integrity of the artist’s trajectory while helping them expand it. We are selective by design. We are long-term by default. And we are fully aligned with the artists we represent. This is not management as usual. This is management with intention.

Something very special a lot of artists can learn from this epic project 'Moments of the Unknown' by @justinaversano Time. This was not just a daily drop over the span of 1 year. That is epic in its own right. Proceeding the release of the collection was 1000's of hours of work. 1000's of hours of travel. He had taken away any comforts of home to meet total strangers every day. Not just in passing but to learn and understand from each and every soul he touched. When I look at the collection, I can see/feel the concept coming to life. An idea that spawned into a plan of action he executed over at least a 3yr period? What that is, what we can learn, is the intrinsic intent that motivates us in our own selves does not have a time limit. There is no rush to the finish line. The process, no matter how long it takes, IS your art, and no one should make you feel any different. Immerse yourself. It has been an absolute honour not only to play a small part of this journey, but time spent with such a human. Thank you Justin 🫂❤️

@justinaversano Congratulations on the completion of such an enduring project. Well done Justin!

@GTSewell You have a way with words GT ❤️

Gm ... and a very special one at that! I started my day as usual. Coffee. Cigarette. Contemplation. My thoughts and my surroundings. Serenity. I'll dedicate at least half an hour to just me. No noise. I prepare for the day ahead. I gotta build. My life, my art studio. I'm way behind both in time and financially. But I show up. Get started. Then, I switched on Twitter, to be greeted by the below interview. It's is 2 people I admire, @RogerDickerman & @redbeardnft, you could say if I was gay, I would try my hardest to hook up with them. But then again, I am not a home wrecker, so I would leave that sexual burden to myself. Even though I have spent more time IRL shaping a Bonsai tree than I have with them, I love these guys. Not a weird love (depending on how many shots GT has had), but an intrinsic spark that that makes me smile when I see their faces, hear their voice, see/experience their actions. This interview is a culmination of that. Though they are 2 of many I have the same admiration for in this space, this morning, this interview hit different. It encapsulated my spark. I sat above the naked dirt, surrounded by building materials, things to do, problems to solve. I looked at the length of the interview, "1 hour 21 minutes. Fuck me!", I'm going to have to break out the headphones and listen in while I get to work. I sipped my coffee, took another drag on my death stick and started watching the first few minutes. My mind was locked in. I stared into the blue sky abyss, seeing what I was hearing. I sat here, with a clear mind. Listening intently. It hit a nerve, a good nerve, maybe that's what the spark is. I was left contemplating my past 9 years in this space. NINE FUCKING YEARS! What have I done, what have I changed? From Eth sponsored art exhibitions in 2018 to a kick ass digital art gallery, OSHI (@_247art ) which, after 4yrs we will be closing the doors in a little under 8 weeks. So many emotions come to the surface. Not one of them was financial, but emotionally driven by the people I am proud to call friends. People I would happily give my underwear and pants to if they happened to shit themselves in public. I hope I have changed at least 1 persons life for the better. That makes me fucking happy, even if the by-product is selfishly my own happiness. It's contagious. I'll take it. I am grateful for the people I have met, both IRL and online. You have made this random Aussie guy with nothing more than vapid expression on the timeline, a happy fucking person. Find good people, those with intrinsic good intent to help each other. Here a 2 of them. Grab a coffee, a cigarette, or pick up a stick from the ground in lieu of and sit and listen into the depth of this interview. Thank you to both of you. Thank you to all of you. Love you beautiful cunts! 😘 Ps, @marka_eth timestamp ~35:00 🖐️

@A_Giant_Swan Hope you have a fireplace in there. Looking forward to see what's next from Mr Swan ❤️

This is what showing up every day looks like for me. Knowing there's so much more to give to whoever will check out my craft and what's next for it is exciting, it's at a level now where I can explore it in the open again. I'm nervous and a little lost. But I'm here
