the Narrative

Description

In 2023 I attended NFT NYC. It was a bear market and the events were smaller than they had been the prior year. As a Proof Collective member, I was lucky enough to attend Evolving Pixels, a very intimate generative art exhibit curated by Emily Xie. I also attended a not-so-intimate Moonbirds party with Beeple, and a live recording of the 100 Proof Podcast at the Transient Labs studio. During that podcast recording, I’m fairly certain I annoyed the hell out of Kevin, Derek & Eli by sitting in the front row snapping pictures with my very old, very loud DSLR camera. I wasn’t really sure what I would use the images for, but it tied into a larger theme I’ve been working on for many years. As an artist and photographer, I’ve always been fascinated by body language. So I tried to capture the essence of that conversation through their gestures. Wow, have things changed in a year. The bull market has started and Proof was sold to Yuga. Some members have floored their passes, others are aping in, but everyone has an opinion. I’m inviting you to share yours. The Narrative is a visual representation of that 100 Proof Podcast through gestures and body language. The pictures tell a story, but you get to add the narrative. Using Transient Labs Stories Inscriptions, you can inscribe a textual narrative to each NFT. There are 60 NFT’s that are free to mint for Proof Collective Members. Once you own the NFT, you can inscribe whatever caption you like and tie it to the image on the blockchain. It’s like a comic strip where you get to fill in the speech bubbles…a comic strip about Proof. Inscribe a narrative, inscribe your thoughts. Inscribe your journey. Then pass it along to another Proof member and let them do the same. Own the narrative.
