GENESIS DROP:
@rightclickdead

braindead.gif is an artist based in Europe. after studying painting at the fine arts he has been devoting himself into pixel art. also he has been drifting on the giant waves of web3 since 2022 with his signature animations.

he is inspired by nihilism, dualism, the concept of time, science fiction, death, quite chaos of nature, the nostalgic hum of vintage techs and the boundless realms of video games. fueled by all these sources of inspiration he weaves complex mosaics that reflect the transience of existence and capture the essence of our deepest fears, desires and curiosities. he believes that even the one tiniest pixel should serve a purpose and his art transcends traditional boundaries to create deeply evocative and thought-provoking pieces whispering tales of lost dreams and fleeting moments.

in a world where meaning is often elusive, braindead.gif’s creations stands as a bold testament trying to find beauty in the endless void of time & space we’re in.
Sometimes I need to remind myself.
@clownvamp is a conceptual artist who uses a combination of narrative and AI techniques to examine the socially constructed nature of our reality.

His work has been exhibited in New York, Paris, and Los Angeles. His solo show Chester Charles: The Lost Grand Master opened in New York City in 2023. ClownVamp and his work have appeared in
Artnet, @outland , SurfaceMag, Right Click Save, and more. An avid collector of AI art and a member of the MAIF art collective, he lives in New York City with his partner and a very silly 10-year-old corgi.

$RARE and protocol contracts will soon be on @base. This is exciting for a number of reasons.

Layer 2s are changing the game. They provide a superior level of convince with acceptable security trade offs. Low cost mints are the number one NFT use case on L2s right now but what I’m excited about is layer 2 auction mechanics with layer 1 assets.

We’re exploring this with chainlink's CCIP. Cheap fast auctions for onchain summer. L2 UX with L1 security.

The shortcut to success is hard work.
April 1st 2018 9:02pm the V1 @superrare NFT contract went live on Ethereum. My life has never been the same since. @humanzero superrarechar and I had been hacking for 7 days straight to get the beta ready so @artnome could collect Robbie Barrat first tokenized works on mainnet.

The feeling of getting something over the line like this is a rush unlike any. Leading up to this moment was 6 months of none stop coding and pitching. The coding was fun; the pitching was horrible. Almost everyone I talked to said that the idea was bad, no one would collect digital art, and I should pivot to gaming or insurance.

Keep in mind these weren't just normies, they were people deep in art and crypto who still didn't understand the potential of NFTs and digital art.

If lots of people think your idea is horrible, it might be a good sign you're onto something. Best-case scenario, you get to say, "I told you so." Worst case, you'll gain a ton of experience, which in itself is invaluable. Don't stop creating 🦾
One of the most incredible aspects of working on @superrare has been the opportunity to travel around the world and meet artists, collectors, and curators.
