Composable Me (Part I: Spring)

NFT Active
180 Views
Hello, world—I just minted myself as an interface.

The avatar you see is me, about to embark on a six month creative journey that you co-lead. This is my genesis NFT.

Equip my feet, my hands, and my torso with six unlocked wearables to determine my creative tools, environment, and approach. I will check in with the Master Layer daily, and document the process and results on my socials.

Three dynamic layers each include three state-changes:


Hands = Tools:



paint palette & brush - "painting"

violin & bow - "music"

empty hands



Chest = Environment:



coder tee - "digital"

burner tee - "analog"

blank tee



Feet = Approach:



hiking boots - "explorations"

tightrope - "exercises"

bare feet


How the states of these three layers interact, shapes the output. If wearables remain unchanged, then I'll dive deeper in that direction. If wearables switch often, I'll make that part of the process.

In this way, layer owners can be as hands-on or hands-off as they want. I will keep going regardless. I believe that wonderful things emerge from where chance and intention meet... Also major #fails, which are a part of this too!

Locked Inventory

Every two months, a new NFT unlocks six new wearables, and the previous get retired. The performance moves containers in this way, and I will look to the new Master Layer for creative prompts.

At the end of six months, there will be a surprise gift sent out to the original owners of all three NFTs, as a thank you for being my first supporters and co-creators in this space.

About Me

I've spent the better part of a decade making visual art, and now find myself circling back to my first loves: music and tech. You can get a sense of my work and career at www.wi-ch.com

This project is a blockchain-first interactive performance piece. I hope it inspires others to engage with their own creativity in strange & wonderful new ways. I am sincerely grateful to all my supporters, collaborators, and mentors, past, future, present, and in parallel timelines^^

Showing up every day to create, in relationship to this space and the greater world, is my commitment to approaching life as art—with purpose, playfulness, and a generous misting of magic.

You can find me on IG @weseeclearly, where all my other socials are linked.

Auto-Erotic Sphinx with Toys
In this image, a giant sphinx spoons itself in erotic play within an aquatic styled environment littered by various denizens. These creatures include symbols and archetypes both current and nostalgic–each inhabiting a rootedness within mass cultural adolescence. Among the roster are Servbots, video game inspired mushrooms, a Pacman-like creature, a distant sea faring rubber duck, creatures sporting the symbols reminiscent of popular anime, and a Pokemon-like rabbit (a novel incarnation of Ganesha indicated by the Shiva trident on its nose). In addition, a few sea creatures partly inspired by sea monsters of western antiquity conglomerate along the mid left side of the composition. The Sphinx itself is an amalgam of aquatic, fetishist, ancient Egyptian, and 80’s style adornments, both living, as in a clown fish, or material, such as a cassette tape. Nautically colored antennae receive somatic signals from the atmosphere, perhaps from the 8 Ball moon or giant ringed planet beyond.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
"Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?" is dedicated to the mysterious creation of Bitcoin, and acts as the showcase artwork within Javier Arrés’ exploratory series "Bitcoin, The Origin". "Who is the creator of Bitcoin?" The artist, Arrés, explores this question, and the feelings of doubt and mystery that accompany it, through his unique artistic language. An unknown, an enigma. It should be remembered that the name Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym of Bitcoin's author or authors and gives us little insight into its true creator. For this Visual Toy, Arrés uses the signature claw machine, his famous half-operation, to symbolize our collective ignorance and unconfirmed belief: As soon as it has the stuffed animal within its grasp and appears to have solved the puzzle, the animal escapes again, and again. At present, there are three more public and studied possibilities who are either believed to be the creators of the currency or who directly claim the creation of it. It may be all or none of them, yet these three personalities leave us clues which are an important part of this interesting enigma. For this moment, it will remain unknown... In this artwork, Arrés elevates the claw machine from the apparatus, to an iconic pop art object serving as an important element to the Bitcoin creation narrative. Action is everywhere, with each movement serving an iconographical or metaphorical purpose related directly to cryptocurrency: Various ups and downs, roller coasters, mining points, robot, coins and more speak to a sense of hope, risk, mystery, randomness and possibility of pay out. Hundreds of manically thought out details make this creation one of the artist’s most complex Visual Toys to date. ------- "Bitcoin, The Origin" is a set of two Visual Toys, titled "Who is Satoshi Nakamoto" and "It’s Alive!" which reflect and explore the mystery and enigmas behind the creation of Bitcoin. Arrés presents these proposals to us in his signature style, full of iconography, fantasy, maniacal animations and a panoply of details (both subtle and overt) which simultaneously fascinate, hypnotize, and narrate this historical milestone through the singular vision of the artist. Through this series, Arrés freezes a crucial moment of cryptocurrency history, taking a still photo under his vision and turning it into two unique crypto artworks. ---- More info about Javier Arrés: https://javierarres.com/about.html
