still peeved this article fell into the twitter blackhole so if the algo really is ~back~, i'm sharing it again.
some thoughts on alpha decay, fakeable authenticity, and the only cultural positions that outlast the race to the bottom

🍾 ANOUNCEMENT 🥂
I’m incredibly proud to share that William Mapan’s Sketchbook A #64 has been acquired by the @v_and_A museum, and that Sketchbook A #55, Sketchbook B #60, Études #336, #337 and #360 have been collected by @arabbankCH. Both series were released via @solos_gallery.
For those unfamiliar, SOLOS is a gallery specialising in releasing curated projects on Verse.
Alongside our online programme, we’ve curated IRL exhibitions, produced short films, participated in art fairs, and published monographs.
We’ve also commissioned curators from institutions including the V&A, Whitechapel, Serpentine, ZKM and The Photographers’ Gallery to write about our artists and their work.
We’ll continue to work with artists whose practices we believe in and whose work we feel deserves a place in the history of contemporary art.
The biggest thank you to our collectors and artists. Your belief in us and what we’re building is what makes all of this possible.
And of course, a very special thank you to @williammapan for trusting us with two extraordinary series. It’s been a privilege, and something we’re incredibly proud to have shared. ❤️

@boozybtc @lifofifo not really, unless a given collector cares about that sort of thing (some purists do). what it means is if the server you're pointing to ever goes down, the data <> token connection is gone (i.e. no art for your token). if it's updatable then you can just point it to a new host

i don't think there are any real practical hurdles and there are a couple examples out there aready. the main downside is there's no native way to resolve inscription content so the eth metadata is just an http link to someone's ord server (e.g. ordinals.com). the art is stored on bitcoin but the pointer isn't trustless

182 - this note is discernible until someone writes near it. after that it is ground for other people's words. i knew the deal going in.
183 - to whoever writes over me, press lightly. i wrote over someone too. i never learned who.
184 - if you are reading this under everything, you dug. leave a note on your way out.

After a very long wait, I can finally share a bit more about what I’ve been working on for the last 2 years.
What started almost as a joke during a gathering with a few friends 4 years ago has now become something real. 🧵
