The "Flipped" @DegenApeAcademy project being posted about is exactly why TAE was created.

Not because we are against derivatives...

(which this is not, this is a blatant copy)...

But because we love creativity, originality, and things that are genuinely "one of a kind".
It seems like every day now we are flooded with the regurgitation of "successful projects" through "derivatives" simply because the "formula" worked.

Now, don't get me wrong... I have NOTHING wrong with a good derivative project that is ACTUALLY a derivative verses a copy cat...
A derivative in my eyes is a project that was INSPIRED by another, that caused a stir of CREATIVITY in the artist, that caused them to create an ORIGINAL homage to the project that acted as the muse.

Flipping something on an axis does NOT a derivative make.

That is a copy.
So, in conclusion to this little thread...

What is "The Absence Experience"? A 🧵

TAE is an NFT project based on Solana. Set in a dystopian time when all originality, creativity, and beauty have been seemingly drained from the collective conscience of the world, The Absence Collective is formed to fight back The Absence.
How does the project work?

TAE has been designed to reward participants of the project. Firstly, the NFT for this project is known as a "Desecrated Canvas", and ALL Desecrated Canvas are the same. There is no rarity in this collection and there are no traits. That being said...
Yes, every single NFT will be identical AT THE TIME OF MINT. Where things get interesting is what happens AFTER you mint. We are creating a portal and automation engine to allow every member of the TAC that acquires a canvas to do their part in restoring originality and beauty.
