I made this work in addition to the 25 prints that will be part of the "Now You See Me Now You Don't" group show and features the work of 22 artists who portray highly endangered animals and plants.
I will donate 100% of the primary sales profits of this NFT to the Finish Natural Heritage Foundation which is an NGO that buys old-growth forests and prevents them from logging, thus protecting rare animal and plant life as well as reducing CO2 emissions. luonnonperintosaatio.fi
If you happen to be in Munich today I would be very happy to see you at the opening of the show at the Orangerie in the English Garden, starting at 6pm. Please note that due to the current COVID rules the access is 2G and wearing a ffp2 mask is required.
Thank you too all who came to the opening yesterday and all 150 of you who already collected the OBJKT! Here is a view of my prints in the show.
I am very happy that already more than half of the edition is sold! Not sure if I miscalculated, but I think the current proceeds already might allow the foundation to buy and protect a football-field sized area of old-growth forest. Would be nice if we can still double that.
Hello @Luonnonperinto - could someone of your organization maybe get in touch with me? I would really like to have chat how accepting donations directly in @tezos could be quite beneficial to your cause.
If you just woke up to and wonder what happened to the hic et nunc website and its "discontinued" twitter account here's some info what is going on as far as I know:
We are clearly facing the third hen crisis and this time it is the worst case scenario: Rafael Lima, the creator of hic et nunc got hit by a bus. Well, not really. Rather in an irresponsible act of rage decided to leave and turn the off-switch on everything he has access to.
As far as I can tell the damage so far is mostly affecting the facade of the hen ecosystem: the .XYZ website and the twitter account. The 500k+ OBJKTS minted and the smart contracts are still there and can be accessed through other community sites, like hicetnunc.art
My contribution to the #OBJKT4OBJKT event is a free NFT that is also a social experiment:
"Diminishing Returns" will list any collector who picks up exactly one of them. BUT: if you take more than one or try to resell it, your id will be dropped.
The extra bonus is that each of the listed ids will link to the profile page. The only problem I notice now us that the link tries to open within the iframe, so you have to right-click "open in new tab".
And of course the hidden "innovation" here is that you can probably adapt this technique for numbered editions. Though I have not fully figured out yet how you can maintain an edition number once it gets resold since it is based on the timestamp of the transaction.
