WIP 27.01.24 🌆

@ismahelios @fx_hash_ I was waiting for #76 for them to have the same number 🥲

🚨🚨🚨🚨 GM People who minted NS1 last week on @fx_hash_ have an AL to mint NS2 and make a Dipytch. Some collectors of the first one didn't even know there was a second part! For now, I will keep the unminted ALs as they are. 👇👇👇👇

Secs is my most conceptually robust project to date. Let’s go deep, together, into its conception. 👇 This project began when Art Blocks launched "Dopamine Machine" by @steviepxyz. I was irresistibly drawn to the project’s provocative commentary on modern culture, and I immediately decided that my next collection would respond to something that had nagged at me for a long time—the short-term memory of the NFT collecting space. From the start, I was fixated on the project’s visuals being inspired by pop art, a genre dripping with sardonic takes on societal norms and known for its biting commentary. Before memes, there was pop art—spicy, unabashed, provocative. 🌶️ I had a broad concept, but I needed a name. I’ve learned that nailing this down early is extremely valuable in giving the project direction and facilitating a fully cohesive project. I softly toyed with continuing my trend of four-letter names, but the options I had conceptualized (2sec, 6sec) felt like a premature ending. But then, in a moment of euphoria, it hit me... Secs. (Side note: I love that this was born from self-imposed limitations. It’s a great example of how constraints can encourage deeper exploration and, somewhat paradoxically, unanticipated revelations and creativity. #notSexualAdvice) With the name set, the vision became clear. I would go all in on the pop art angle by leaning into the sexually explicit adventures of some of the genre’s legends (Wesselman, Ramos, the saucier side of Warhol). And I was pleased that the project’s visual aspects would be just as controversial as the message underneath it. In the last few weeks of developing Secs, I felt an irresistible temptation to go deeper. I knew–conceptually–that it was missing a critical reference to pop art, specifically an everyday item intricately linked to the current culture. I unabashedly sought chatGPT’s suggestions. It shot out a load of ideas; all I could see was ‘emoji’. It was the perfect happy ending to a months-long rendezvous. But… why? Emojis are the universal language, the ubiquitous means through which we provide social commentary in modern culture. Integrating them into Secs, a project seeking to do just that, felt like a beautifully ironic final touch. I imagine that many collectors will be disappointed with the use of emojis in a generative art project. In fact, I’ve already been told that’s the case. But I didn’t create this to be generative art. I created it to be a generative art perspective on pop art. I created this as a means of expression. I created it for myself, for the moment, for the culture. If Secs makes you uncomfortable, please trust that I – in releasing it – am right there with you. So, here we are… uncomfortable, together, slowly awakening from our post-revelry haze, and slowly getting more comfortable feeling uncomfortable, exposed, and vulnerable. I’m going to take a shower 🚿, but you’re welcome to stay as long as you want. That’s the story behind Secs. Thanks for joining me; enjoying Secs is much more fun in groups.

I'm planning on an idea for "Gelatin people" collection. Who wants to be notified before mint? If there's more than one of you I put it on Auction #NFT #nftdrop #nftart The photo below is one of the illustrations in the collection

GM - this week is special.

You can tell how much my life is unraveling by seeing how long it's been since an "O God, The Mail" piece has come out. Considering migrating that whole collection to one manifold contract and minting the older tokens to give to the collectors. What do you think?
