Knowing that other people resonate with my difficulties and my struggles, but also the happier moments as well.” - Luca Ponsato, Why Art? w/ SHILLR._ ### **“PROMPTED” 🤖 w/** [**RenAI**](https://twitter.com/RenAI_NFT)**:** ![](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/58c263c1-c0e4-4bdc-9fc6-ac9f80576938_590x397.png) To hear the full interview with [RenAI](https://twitter.com/RenAI_NFT), tap the [link](https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1YqGoAgpwZjxv) for the full recording! ### **“PROMPTED” 🤖 AI Art Contest Winner:** [**alxalxalx**](https://twitter.com/alxalxalx) **🏅** ![](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/94477ccd-a857-436a-be09-bde353c5e052_360x361.gif) _“We must act out passion before we can feel it”_ by alxalxalx 🍄 ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/5e18c202-ad16-4deb-ad01-bc3d162a86f9_1004x444.jpeg "Image") Well done to alxalxalx for their visual interpretation of the above haiku!

Space Case's art explores ideas like distraction, communication, technological dependencies & sleep deprivation, topics where words often fall short to describe. ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f1e68bff-e929-4ee0-9aa2-aaec2d6f8a6b_3073x4096.jpeg "Image") 2/ I vibe with Space Case's work because they elegantly visualize concepts that are often impossible to convey accurately through text. Their artistic process is also insane - Sleep Studies was created in periods just before sleep and after waking, generating incredible results. ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d1048bae-79ec-4382-9856-e6c9b59439a3_2266x3000.jpeg "Image") 3/ A great entry into Space Case's work is through ['Say Less'](https://opensea.io/collection/adhd-editions-on-babylon-february-28-2023)(OpenSea link). I see this piece as a commentary on the pitfalls of speech and the strengths of art, body language & non-verbal communication. Visuals can often be loud and clear. ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/bb78bcd7-1cd5-4df4-9901-f3b802f63ffc_1000x1333.jpeg "Image") 4/ If I had unlimited ETH I would cop ['Influence'](https://foundation.app/@SpaceCase/meta-298b/1) (Foundation link). It's comprised of marks representing each one of Space Case's followers on Twitter and will change over time with his follower count. A powerful statement on our dependency to social media. ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d7146a8d-0465-4f2f-9e51-388f82298434_3072x4096.jpeg "Image") 5/ You should scope out Space Case's work because it's a glimpse into a distracted, yet brilliant mind. Space Case's catalogue is one in which you can get lost in, allowing you to view your personal experiences within his work & find your own meaning in the abstraction of ideas. ![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/615ef2ee-a382-4d0a-bbe7-4459629e8f80_2926x4096.jpeg "Image") If you're interested in checking out other artists I've featured or would like to recommend someone I should look into, head over to the below thread.
