This new ChatGPT update would’ve immediately triggered a “Ghibli Punks” craze if it happened in 2021 btw
If anything this whole ghiblification craze is going to drastically increase the audience & general curiosity for actual studio Ghibli movies.

This has been many people’s first introduction to Ghibli & i’m sure that engagement metrics on their movies will confirm this very soon.
Twitter engagement is dead af, so i’m gonna give farcaster another chance i guess
I wish i knew how to farm engagement
Not sure if this makes sense or not,
But to tell apart good ai art from bad ai art, i don’t really look at the art itself
And instead, i examine the range of outputs the artist publishes.

The more consistent their repertoire, the more they are involved in handpicking results expressing their artistic vision or statement.
(Using ai as just a tool)

The more random and experimental their work, the more it seems that the ai is doing most of the work with no human/artistic filter at the end to channel the results into a cohesive body of self expressive artworks.
(Using ai to larp as an artist)

How do you tell apart good ai art and artists from bad ones?

Btw obviously this is a subjective statement and question,
There is no such thing as objectively bad art or artists.
You don’t really have to “believe in NFTs” tbh

you have to believe in the fact that Digital Art will have a pivotal role in the cultural climate of a world that’s getting more & more digitized by the hour.

NFTs are just the medium in which that digital art is best delivered in.
The 2021 NFT Bullrun started tight after the downfall of that cycle’s top SocialFi project, BitClout.

Now FriendTech just went belly up, liquidity on memecoins are almost all dried up too.

The stars are aligning again and we are all insufficiently bullish on what’s coming next.
The space is seriously giving early 2021 vibes again

Everyone is clueless but also kinda curios about what’s ahead

Early grifters are almost all out & enthusiastic new faces are somewhat playfully adjusting themselves for the new era of web3

The rollercoaster is about to drop.
I’ve sat on my down bad bags for so long that i don’t even remember where i was hoping for them to get anymore.
Mfers aren’t even making memes of how down bad they are anymore.

It really is over
Whenever you thought NFTs are losing their edge and impact on the art world because the sales are down bad,

Remember this Brian Eno quote:

“The first Velvet Underground album only sold 10,000 copies, but everyone who bought it formed a band”
You’re not a dabbler,
You’re an interdisciplinary researcher.
Did the normies have some homegrown ETH lying around waiting to be sold off as ETFs? wtf
We got dumped on by retail before we got GTA VI
The cool thing about NFTs being dead again is how it allows artists to focus on their onchain footprint & repertoire instead of having to dedicate all their resources to marketing & sales,

Tokenization for the sake of tokenization will finally outshine the lust for monetization.
Still thinking about this exhibition i saw in Tehran a year ago or so.

Those are NOT screens, they’re just acrylic paintings, but with a custom kind of lighting that only shines on the canvas making it pop like a backlit screen.

Physical paintings imitating digital art was a memorable sight to see.

Many don’t know this

But the goal of the “Digital Renaissance” movement was never the destruction of the trad art world

NFTs & digital art were never supposed to overthrow physical art

The goal is to condition the trad art world to take digital art just as serious as physicals
To all those who say we don’t need any more L2s,
Think of it this way

Ethereum mainnet is the internet,
L2s are Xbox Live, Facebook, Google, Amazon, Apple, Adobe…

The main reason most people hate L2s is because of how trash the current UI/UX in accessing them is.
Not for long.
I strongly believe that a Layer agnostic UI/UX in crypto wallets will solve almost all the current confusion & negativity around L2s

Wallets that seamlessly showcase your tokens & NFTs across all L2s & let you interact with them all without manually switching networks solve this

Even months later, my heart is still somewhat stuck in this place.

This installation in Paris was pure core memory material
