CryptoPunk #2140
The CryptoPunks are 10,000 uniquely generated characters. No two are exactly alike, and each one of them can be officially owned by a single person on the Ethereum blockchain. Originally, they could be claimed for free by anybody with an Ethereum wallet, but all 10,000 were quickly claimed. Now they must be purchased from someone via the marketplace that's also embedded in the blockchain.
Traffic
Traffic explores a crossroads between the metaverse & reality through organized chaos. The complexity of this aural / visual landscape demanded over 200 hours of design time between Slimesunday & 3LAU. Every detail of this piece was built from scratch, from the reflective puddled pavement to the stabbing synthesis of the song. We think we'll be spending a lot more time in the metaverse in the future, don't you?
ℤ
Things are not always as they seem. Living in poverty is like serving a sentence in a prison with invisible bars. The keys are in plain sight, yet impossible to reach. Screen time captivates us with its addictive dopamine triggers, plucking at our attention span until we are no longer aware of the present... What if both worlds collide?
