・・・ life circumstances can get quite heated. 1 might be found in situations where the best option seems to be fuckitall1000. or, as @redmangilla might say "shit's thick." · things do not always work as we plan or want. what to do? it ain't as straightforward as the above suggests, but the overall life philosophy is keep it mega/moving & always be building. life fearless. fearless, not fuckitall1000 reckless. you only live once. make the most of this shit. our experiences are generally by the design of our minds. keep it Lord Kelvin. art life. ✨🤔👨🏾‍🎨🎨🌍 #3y3MAKEshit #alchemist #CREATORpreneur ・・・ #filter 📷 #Kelvin ・・・ #BNMEnterprises #dfdesigns #analog2digital #alchemistsdigPDA #PASSION #DILIGENCE #ACTION #designs #CRAFT #ARTcanMOVE #FREEURMIND #ARTHEALs #thewarofART #df3y3simages #df3y3s #photography #KIM #watwouldUdo4ART #stayLIT #LIFEfearless #fearlessnotreckless #ABB #ART #MEDIA #BUSINESS (at Dfinery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-rB1ZKj2vR/?igshid=uu6pniky5dk

I’ve been revisiting some works and using them to explore new takes on old themes. I made a body of work using slip cast modular components designed with CAD software. I was fascinated with the idea of translating things between the physical and the digital world. I explored translating concepts and ideas originating in the digital world into physical objects for my thesis work. Now, I’m exploring translating physical things into the digital realm. . When I work natively in the digital space, I struggle with my desire to intuitively use physical techniques to manipulate things. In the physical space, there is so much possible in the nuance of something that is continuous instead of being quantized. When I work natively in the physical world, I struggle with a desire for ever increasing accuracy and precision, instead of having to compensate for the natural “error” in the variable tolerances in the analog world. . My thought was that being able to bounce between the two spaces would let me have the best of both worlds. However, as I push further into being able to translate between digital and analog at will, I find that I have gained a better appreciation for the “flaws” of each medium. . As we expand our digital presence, we seem to be driving more towards hybridized models instead of staying in one or the other. We are seeing the digital world manifesting into the physical with things like AR. We are seeing bringing physical things into the virtual world with VR and “metaverses.” . I wonder what will happen when that line blurs even further. . Video of digitized slip cast ceramic piece using photogrammetry.

I’ve minted my second NFT on Hic-et-nunc (link in bio). I’m learning by doing in playing around with the blockchain for use in my work, and I’m revisiting pieces I’ve made previously as components to use for this exploration. I’ve got a stash of 3D printed ceramics from when I did my MFA thesis in 2017, and reevaluating these pieces makes me think about my progress through exploring “additive manufacturing,” and how that arc could apply to my use of blockchain in my creative practice. . My first 3D printer was a Thing-O-Matic kit from Makerbot back when it was still all open source. I think I got it in 2010 when it first came out. Assembling it myself really gave me a lot of insight into the details behind the technology, but it took another 6 years of my brain synthesizing that information for me to effectively incorporate it into a body of work that is uniquely mine. . I look at these first couple NFTs and I remember fumbling through getting my first imprecise plastic 3D prints. I’m at the stage where I’m gathering information and experience so I can get a better understanding of the more esoteric details and nuance of this blockchain technology/tool/medium, much like I did with those 3D prints. . Besides the learning, all I’m looking to do is keep these experiments sustainable. If you’re curious to follow along on this journey and happen to have a Tezos wallet (I’m not going to ask anyone to get one specifically for my work), I’m literally selling these for gas money; and at the current exchange rate, all of my works which I’m currently pricing at 0.01XTZ are just under $0.10 (can you spare a dime). If you’ve ever wanted to “own” a piece of mine, this is probably the cheapest it’ll ever be (besides, of course, the stuff that I post and put out essentially for free). . #cleanNFT #analog2digital #digital2analog #OBJKT #hicetnunc2000 https://www.instagram.com/p/CUQZp_Qre1I/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’ve been pulled, almost kicking and screaming, into experimenting with NFTs, The best way I’ve found to learn about something is to partake in it. If you’re interested in following along more closely, there’s a link to my profile at “Hic et Nunc” in my IG profile. . I’ve been following blockchain technology for a while, out of curiosity from the tech side of me. However, I had no interest in actually getting involved. There was too much about it that reminded me of the “irrational exuberance” of the dot com boom and bust; too many people throwing money at anything with “blockchain” slapped onto it without really understanding what was going on. . When NFTs started trending in the mainstream media, I thought that it was finally something that was using the blockchain in an interesting way. However, I was underwhelmed by what I saw; more people just throwing stuff onto the blockchain to try to make some money. Though, in researching it, I saw possibilities with the tech. As I read over the articles and papers, I thought about ways that the blockchain could be used as a tool for art. I thought about how it could potentially be a medium on its own or mixed with other media to make a unique kind of art. . I was still reluctant because of the cost of using the blockchain, both in terms of the monetary costs (~$80USD to “mint” an NFT on Ethereum), and the environmental cost (~14 gallons of gas in CO2 for an NFT on Ethereum). . I’m getting involved now because I’ve found a platform that uses a cleaner “proof of stake” model for blockchain (it also currently costs <$1USD to “bake” and NFT). . So, I can afford to experiment now. I’ve got a few ideas to play around with, and if it doesn’t work out, it will at least be a learning experience. . #cleannft #analog2digital #digital2analog https://www.instagram.com/p/CT_UEE0gUXc/?utm_medium=tumblr

this is the 2020 reup of the free your mind logo. it was created using Phonto & Autodesk Sketchbook. evolution occasionally requires drastic adaption to sudden changes. revolution is a sudden change type of situation. 1 may choose to violently resist the demands of evolution & create harmful causes, or make the choice to derive reasonable solutions in the effort to adapt. life is choice. revolution is change. evolution is change. change is natural. change is the only universal constant in life's equation of infinite variables. do the math. life math. the mind works in mysterious ways. what does your mind do? ♾️🦈🤔 ・・・ #BNMEnterprises #dfdesigns #analog2digital #theskyisnotthelimit #designs #logos #logo #watwouldUdo4ART #thewarofART #sayWE #EFU #metaphysics #philosophy #alchemy #3y3MAKEshit #THINKCOLLECTIVE #ABB #FREEURMIND #KIM #brand #branding #READerythin #READ #bruhREAD #RIF #ARTLIFE #ART #MEDIA #BUSINESS (at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LHqDIjdeH/?igshid=1wd23h9cnwyw2

the OG free your mind logo. this was created using a 1st gen Kindle Fire & PicsArt. both the device & the app are history. observation of history is fascinating & important for growth. the evolution of skill in a craft/activity has much to do w/our choice of energy investment over temporal distances. cause & effect. practice makes us better. what happens if we invest in practicing fear & rampant negativity/paranoia? being positive minded does not require cognitive dissonance. being negative minded does not produce constructive results over temporal distances. elevate the state of mind. stay elevated. think of the possibilities in a realistically positive fashion. the sky is not the limit. the entire universe exists beyond what we perceive to be the sky. stay lit. the universe is infinite. it has no beginning or ending. this is a scientific concept based on astronomy. don't believe it because it appears here in words, do the research for self. look it up. energy can neither be created nor destroyed. everything that is the energy of the universe is & always haa been, infinitely. this is not mythology. it is science. invest in self. there is no 1 path to enlightenment. be fearless. be relentless. the mind's light is capable of miraculous achievements. cultivate & shine that light. what does your mind do? what does the sun do? ☀🤔 ・・・ #BNMEnterprises #dfdesigns #analog2digital #theskyisnotthelimit #designs #logos #logo #watwouldUdo4ART #thewarofART #sayWE #EFU #metaphysics #philosophy #alchemy #3y3MAKEshit #THINKCOLLECTIVE #ABB #FREEURMIND #KIM #brand #branding #READerythin #READ #bruhREAD #RIF #ARTLIFE #ART #MEDIA #BUSINESS (at Dfinery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LJHjoje5p/?igshid=1n214pxo09c0f
