Please watch this introduction to my artwork and reflect:
69 patronage editions will shortly become available on a dispenser for 1 BTC each. These will not be reduced unless to π. #uponlyxchain.io/asset/NOTKAMOTO
I know this is FAKERARES. But I'm doing something special for the REAL ones. To become eligible for a NOTKAMOTO:

First, after clicking "Edit Video," find "Subtitles" in the left-hand column. Click it! 2/12

Today, February 12, all Gazers with the "First Stolen Paintings" origin moon trait celebrate 20 years and 246 New Moons passing since the moon under which I had 3 paintings stolen from my studio shortly before what was to be my first solo show. #cryptoart π§΅...
It was a most sickening, heart sinking feeling to step into the studio & discover these centerpiece works to my show, each 36" x 48", were missing. I made a police report and hung up fliers but the paintings would remain stolen. Check out my DANK poster and $100 reward! I was 21.

I'm SO grateful to have worked with @SuperRare in launching the new #Series feature. The Door couldn't have found a more appropriate beginning! A great way to learn more about #TheDoor is with this video: vimeo.com/632154118 (1/7)
For an artist, a series is often about the evolution of ideas - the discovery and experimentation that takes place while investigating conceptual or visual curiosities. Since June, The Door marked my return to an almost undivided focus on my daily artistic practice.(2/7)

Does anyone else get tingly talking about #NFT metadata? I'm doing a couple new things on my NFT that is part of #NativelyDigital, that I'd like to briefly explain. (1/9) collect.mattkane.com/minted-works/mβ¦#cryptoart
As an artist who works with code, it's important to reference at least some software and libraries that I use. Personally, I don't want to get carried away into processor speeds, but some high level context of my development environment is in order. Let's use metadata! (2/9)

(1/10) "Meules after Claude Monet" is a multitude of expanding experiences.βΎ Let's break down what is actually archived as part of the #NFT being auctioned as part of #NativelyDigital at @Sothebys. My NFT Portal website is where to π for supreme quality: collect.mattkane.com/minted-works/mβ¦
(2/10) @nameless_nft created a custom contract solution for me. I explained that I don't tokenize a singular JPEG or GIF. I tokenize artwork. A singular artwork might require an archive of files that aids a viewer's experience, help provide context, include a press kit, etc.

Please join me in visiting the @cryptovoxels installation I've made in order to bring a metaverse experience to my #cryptoart work being shown with #NativelyDigital at @Sothebys. cryptovoxels.com/play?coords=W@β¦
Begin on the ground floor: the exterior walls are lined by the master copy #digitalart I created after studying #Monet in early 2019. Across the hallway, they gaze into their inspirational counterparts, the original Monet paintings housed at @artinstitutechi.

1.After gifting some @VolatilityArt NFTs, I began selling VLY tokens last week, starting at 0.21 ETH. Why so low? This project is an artwork centered on value and volatility. The artist applies their own values as a measure of value. Price becomes a medium of artistic expression.
2. Bitcoin required a market to be built from zero. So did #cryptoart and #nfts. I began with gifts, then asked some collectors who already participated in building my NFT market to come join this project & do the same. This mirrors #BTC & cryptoart market building.π§‘π
