@fdbckfdfwd the small captive market allows art materials here to be priced at eye-popping rates. i go to artfriend for a tour... and then i go upstairs to popular instead to find the cheapest equivalent i can hack into the thing i originally wanted 😂
English
i have no context of the original but art materials are so fucking expensive that this place is also called art enemy befitting bad art friend
sorry i have been mostly staring at my screen all day and i’m just venting
English
@fdbckfdfwd Oh no! Hope your laptop situation gets solved! And if you are in a hurry to get a high speed portable hd for backup then I would recommend the SanDisk Extreme Portable E60 or E61. I directly edit work on the portable drive all the time and works well.

Minus is supposed to be a social network where you can have only 100 posts for life. But... what if you had a Minus gallery where you could only collect 100 pieces of art during your entire life? Would 100 be too many or too little? What if every piece had to be kept for life?

“Each and Every Command” collects all the instructions given by @greyisgood to Photoshop over 15 years. A detailed description of the artist's creative process as an impressive and somewhat absurd collection of data. Check it out on @FeralFile

Have been enjoying discovering various amulets – but the uniformity of them in English makes me wish for more in a dialect or pidgin or even singlish accent. Or I guess I'll just have to make some myself...? - text.bargains/amulet/

What are we doing to progress beyond these sad looking exhibitions for digital art? Even if it is argued that digital art is made to be shown in infinitely expanding virtual galleries, I go to art exhibitions IRL because I want to be immersed in the experience and materiality.

The saddest thing you'll see today is, once again, brought to you by Christie's.

💥⚡ I just minted two legacy PDFs & offered them on #hicetnunc2000 #NFT
My work has always fallen just between theory & practice. But in the end, I believe that writing can also be an art form, so here we go: a 2pack reference #drop of my Glitch-story💥⚡ hicetnunc.xyz/menkman/creati…

@fdbckfdfwd I personally didn't get a sense of existential dread reading it. The points you make about systemic inequalities are very valid and yes IRL Freeport is also the playground of the rich but I read it as that the both Freeports and nfts are economic mechanisms for value creation
English
arent freeports a haven for money laundering + tax evasion?
maybe i don't really understand and wish not to be involved in art markets but i feel the more these positions are made / said in the name of new frontiers of the future the more repulsed i am with how this tech is used

i need to know more context (hopefully there’s a recording) but this is a genuinely, genuinely horrifying statement

on top of that, artists become cash cows for networks and less visible artists will always be playing second fiddle within that network, and then its just replicating one chain after another after another
this is the acceleration of abundance no one needs tbh
English
how many artists out there struggle to make even a sale on their respective chains?
bonus question: how many of said artists drifted to other chains and how many of them still struggle to sell?
bonus bonus question: who’ve cashed out to pay bills / food?

You can also earn tokens through creative and entrepreneurial activities. For example, people are earning roughly $100M worth of ETH per day selling NFTs.

@fdbckfdfwd Sadly, every cab ride home to little india is when countless cab uncles have unfortunately decided to reveal their terrible bigotry by questioning me why I chose to live in "such an area" 😶
English
in a cab ride down Serangoon Rd along Tekka, cab driver points to the lights;
driver: Deepavali not yet here they put up lights already
me: Christmas also what, whats your point?
