This is CTRL The beginning of what's next. Open to influence and interpretation.

@KJerzykPhoto @exchgART I loved hearing you talk about your practice today. Now I see these photos and I wonder how you found the spot, if it was by chance, if you just happened to have the suit with you, etc. Brings so much fun to each shot!

@pablorfraile I'm paying more attention to teams that are utilizing AI tools to boost those efforts (primarily distribution and ops). I also think that elite design (digital, physical and experience) is going to become more and more rare (making them possible differentiators).

@cryptorookie Exactly. And right now almost everyone in AI is focused on the build. Distribution, monetization, legal structure, operations, the boring stuff that makes a business survive. That's the gap

Telling AI to build you a website is impressive. It is not a business. I've watched dozens of people in the AI space launch "companies" this year. Most of them are a landing page, a demo, and a Twitter announcement. No entity. No revenue. No customers. No operations. The frontend looks incredible. The backend doesn't exist. In crypto, we saw the same thing. A whitepaper and a token launch was a "project." Most of them were dead within six months. Building something that looks like a company and building something that operates like one are completely different things. The gap between a weekend prototype and a functioning business is not technical. It's operational, financial, and legal. Almost everyone stalls there. The tools have made creation effortless. But creation was never the hard part of building a business

@cryptorookie Gm homie

gm ☀️ Happy Monday to the ones that throw their own parade! We had heard that you could hire your own band and police escort in New Orleans but it is a whole other thing to actually see someone do it. gg to those that don't wait for someone else to throw you a party.

@danielkoeth Happy Monday 🫡

keep your head up, kid

@jaymesrogers Right? Something special there.

@cryptorookie i love NOLA for this exact reason!

@Loulanweu Happy Monday!

@cryptorookie gm goppie! ❤️✨

Imagine creating something novel, beautiful, thought-provoking, and then placing that on an immutable ledger. Something like that can't die.

Damn, I forgot how proud I am of this shot. Just sent this to a friend: "This might be my grail of grails... a moonbow. If you are at Yosemite Falls, in the spring (with the winter runoff), AND it is a full moon, AND the full moon is directly in front of the falls, AND it is a clear night, AND it is windy (so the mist picks up) THEN you MIGHT be able to capture a moonbow off of the falls. This is a single, long exposure shot 😍"

@jjoypeterson Thank you Jen!!!

@cryptorookie Love it!

NFTs are dead… long live NFTs

@alexmack__ @Oaknarrow Yeah, there is a window that the moon is at the right angle. I think this was around midnight.

@cryptorookie @Oaknarrow This is a night shot?!? Insane!!

@Wetfeetphoto Seriously! 2/3 of the shots were unusable because in a 10 second long exposure the lens would be completely misted up. The luck was a 10 second window that didn’t blow back onto the camera 🤣

@cryptorookie Prepare to get misted 💦😉

@cryptorookie Fully understand and respect your view. I personally think it’s more than 5% but that percentage is bad enough already in a small market so will leave it at that 😆 Appreciate this and the more we all talk like this, the better things can be for all of us.

Artists went from talking about life and their unfiltered thoughts to appeasing finance toys and blocks or muting to “protect” their timeline that can always and literally be walked away from. Fragile are the eyes of the controlled in this new movement.

Also it is less than 5%. It is an edge case. As a member of the community that you want to see thrive, diminishing the majority seems less helpful than calling out the exception. Even if it is more than a few "some" is a better representation than generalizing. I also acknowledge that that the intended impact of the tweet gets reduced if you use the word "some" so I get it.

@cryptorookie There’s too many to just label it as some, makes it seem less than 10 or insignificant to a certain degree. Some of them are my friends and not sure how to feel about it right now.

@mandolinaes @WGMeets *Some* artists. Most of these tweets should start with “some” right?

@WGMeets Artists used to say things that made people uncomfortable. Now they say things that keep them collectible.
