Dropping 11/30/2021 on Giving Tuesday
SameYou, the charity founded by Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, in collaboration with Seva.Love is launching an NFT for good initiative to support their quest to develop better recovery treatments for more than 80 million brain injury and stroke survivors around the world.
“I’ve experienced two brain aneurysms and the incredible health care workers are one of the biggest reasons I was able to come out even stronger. Nearly one-in-three people will suffer from brain injury in their lifetime, and SameYou’s purpose is to increase access to rehabilitation, ensuring survivors have the best chance of recovery.” - Emilia Clarke
The NFT drop will include both digital and physical collectibles
- 4K video renders and spoken word from Emilia Clarke focused on brain-injury healing created in partnership with the creative team at Pholio
- The one-of-a-kind physical chainmail Atelier Versace dress Emilia Clarke debuted at the 68th Emmy Awards in 2016 when she was nominated for best supporting actress for her role in Game of Thrones
- A digital metaverse recreation of the dress that can be displayed and worn by one’s avatar in the metaverse of their choice
- 2D, 3D and hologram artwork created by award-winning photographer Steven Sebring through his proprietary Pure Reality capture process
- Signed physical artwork and Game of Thrones collectibles from the queen of dragons herself
“The gown is the heaviest I’ve ever worn and is made of metal mesh, which became Gianni Versace’s famous trademark in the early 1980s, and to me, the metal build of the dress symbolizes the strength, power and resilience of brain trauma survivors. I almost feel like there is a little bit of Khalessi ready to go into battle in this chainmail gown.” - Emilia Clarke
All carbon emissions associated with the NFT drop will be offset
- The majority of NFTs in the collection will be minted on the carbon negative Hedera Hashgraph network. As a generation 3 distributed ledger (aka blockchain) technology, Hedera uses a fraction of the energy of traditional blockchains.
- The most valuable NFTs in the collection will be minted on the Ethereum network to allow SameYou to access the largest pool of supporters and maximize fundraising for the initiative, with all carbon emissions offset through impactful organizations like Dovu.earth as we collaborate to transform our planet for the better.
