Mint Less; Appreciate More
I have been collecting art on (fx)hash for a few months. Minting (buying a unique iteration from a generative token) can be an addictive experience. This ecosystem has the potential to sweep away one’s attention like a tornado of community engagement, abundant art, and market dynamics. In this article, I’ll share some of the art I’ve collected and dive into why I like it. It’s important to me to reflect and think about why I’ve collected something. What aspects about this work do I like? Woul...

"This looks interesting," I thought, as I minted Lepidoptera #14 by MJ Lindow on fxhash on November 26th for 5 tezos. I looked at it a few times and I just didn't vibe with the art that was generated. It was my first piece of generative art, and I didn’t have the personal perspective or community to educate me differently.Lepidoptera #14 by MJ LindowI sold it for 13 tezos, a ~50% gross margin after royalties and transaction fees. Sounds good, right? 💰To my amusement and dismay, the floo...

What is fxhash?
This is essay 1 of 7 essays for The Tech Progressive Writing Challenge, cohort #2. Join the conversation in the build_ Discord. Last cohort, I learned how smart contracts empower digital artists to earn royalties as their artwork continues to transact over time.

I think it's awesome how much creative energy is flowing right now. htt...

My Morning Routine
I'm leading a 7-day morning routine habit challenge for the iNNERVERSE DAO, where we are focusing on building our morning routine. Morning routines allow you to start the day proactively on your own terms. Most days, I start with a ten minute guided meditation. This gives me time to notice what's going on inside of me. How is my attitude? How is my physical body? What thoughts are present? How is the energy flowing through me? How natural and free-flowing is my breathing? These are ...
