10/04/2023 The Rolling Stones Shy Away From Using the Term "NFTs" in New Project

The negative publicity around NFTs and crypto have galvanized some to drop the word altogether from their marketing efforts.

The Rolling Stones Shy Away From Using the Term "NFTs" in New Project

In April, the British rock band The Rolling Stones will unveil 40 photos linked to NFTs, or non-fungible tokens. These will largely focus on “historical moments captured from various tours over the 1960s-1990s” and be priced between $199 to $300.

There’s just one catch: none of the NFTs will be officially referred to as digital collectibles or NFTs. Instead, fans can expect to receive a “Digital Certificate of Authenticity,” otherwise known as a DCOA.

The NFTs will be put out byGlobe Entertainment and Media, and the Web3 company OneOf.

As NFTs grow in popularity across the media and entertainment industries, there is a growing push to drop the NFT label altogether because of high-profile scandals, rug pulls, and scams associated with the crypto and digital collectibles industry.

Last month, the marketing for Hollywood’s latest vampire movie starring Nicolas Cage –Renfield– featured NFTs without the term "NFT" – a trend that is likely to accelerate as more people link the nascent industry with cons and swindles.

Art Blocks is a first of its kind platform focused on genuinely programmable on demand generative content that is stored immutably on the Ethereum Blockchain. You pick a style that you like, pay for the work, and a randomly generated version of the content is created by an algorithm and sent to your Ethereum account. The resulting piece might be a static image, 3D model, or an interactive experience. Each output is different and there are endless possibilities for the types of content that can be created on the platform.

Right Place & Right Time (bitcoin hourly price offset)
Each day, a new composition for the Master is generated autonomously using a data feed of Bitcoin's last 24 hours of price action. Each hour's price programmatically controls rotation, scale, and position of a correlating layer. Astute viewers will surmise the day's price volatility simply by examining the artwork. While the daily image generation is the result of autonomous API calls, utilizing an algorithm the artist wrote, the artist has chosen to retain a control token. This token allows him to fine-tune variables associated with his algorithm, in addition to addressing aesthetic concerns within the life-cycle of the artwork. Layer state, alpha, hue, saturation, and brightness are elements the artist has retained control of in order that this artwork remain a living work-in-progress. An earlier iteration of this artwork was featured as a nightly projection mapping video on the face of the Daniels Fisher Clocktower, as part of ETH Denver 2020. Access to this and additional exclusive content awaits the master token owner at the artist's NFT Portal: https://collect.mattkane.com/minted-works/right-place-right-time-bitcoin-hourly-price-offset/
