trust me, I’m more disappointed than you that it’s listed for .17 and not .169

this year has been one for the history books for more reasons than I can count. least of which has been the transition from what I would’ve previously described as my dream career working in big tech, to making a living off of art.

so, for the first time - I’d like to expand my collector base, inviting more frens into my on-chain family.

this piece means a lot to me, as I continue to explore themes of self expression, autonomy, and ultimately, free will.

I believe in the power of web3 - of giving individuals the power of freedom and ownership of their online identities and assets. but like the technology that came before, which had lofty ideals of connecting the world, it is ultimately in the hands of humans to actively bend this technology to fit our needs. we must not sleepwalk into the future, lest we end up in another trap of our own design.

I choose to believe we have the free will to design better systems for everyone - but we must actively continue to choose this path every time.

gm with love from the open metaverse,
