Description

The acronym PFP refers to “picture for proof” or “profile picture.” PFP NFTs emerged as a ubiquitous format from projects like CryptoPunks where thousands of digital avatars are randomly generated as unique 1/1 NFTs. Famous New Media Artist Jeremy Bailey is a living digital avatar, but unlike PFPs, his identity is fixed and unique. How might we all benefit from this emerging asset class that relies on variation without diluting Bailey’s famously consistent identity? The solution is simple, by dividing himself into 100 unique slices or ‘coins’ many more collectors can own a unique share of his total self. Each coin will be available as a real physical coin referencing a cross section of Famous New Media Artist Jeremy Bailey’s head. Every collector will also get access to a digital augmented reality (AR) model of his complete head for their reference and enjoyment. Shapeways Collection: First collectors of this work will receive a corresponding 3D print from Shapeways. Within two weeks of the sale closing, Feral File will contact collectors to input their name, email address, and shipping information to provide to Shapeways for fulfillment. Shipping and printing costs are included in the price of the work. Note that all orders will take <a href="https://support.shapeways.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006412813-Shipping-time-costs" target="_blank" class="link">6-8 weeks</a> to deliver. After initial collection, NFTs can continue to be collected on the secondary market without the 3D printed component. The 100 unique slices will be distributed from the neck upwards with the low editions receiving parts of the neck and the holder of edition 100 receiving the top slice of the head. The slices are <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/materials/bronze" target="_blank" class="link">printed in wax and then cast in bronze</a> with a natural finish. The size will vary per slice with a maximum of approximately 5.5cm x 8cm, but the thickness is 1mm for all of them.
