Artist and Collector Panels
During the day on April 3rd we are excited to invite you to come to a series of panels and talks with leading AI artists and collectors.
at Canvas 3.0 @ Oculus WTC
more details on each panel and rsvp below
We started as a Twitter group chat, meant to share techniques and chat about all things AI.
As we approached Twitter's 75 person group limit, we realized we had accidentally created something more meaningful: a collective of (mostly) second wave AI artists.
💎MAIF MASH💎
Tomorrow is the day!
First MAIF Collection.
27 collaborative pieces between 27 artists.
Each piece will be limited to 5 editions.
Priced at 10 Tezos.
Dropping at 3 PM GMT
That's 10 AM EST.
What does MAIF stand for?
…🤔
What we can share is our mission: We want to create, celebrate, and lift up AI art (not to mention, collect!).
We think the changes caused by AI are a historic unlock for creativity.
MAIF Collective presents.
💎MAIF MASH💎
A collection of 27 collaborative pieces.
27 MAIF members participated in this collection,
each contributing to 2 pieces.
Dropping this Thursday, 24th of November.
🕵️More news on Wednesday.🕵️
In a world with 100x the number of artists, we think collectives are a necessary tool to organize.
You will see collectives form around themes/techniques/shared values and much more. We will partner, support, and collab with as many as possible.
The next 6 months are going to see a huge increase in the number of artists. Massive numbers of people from across the globe are now going to have access to a superpowered imagination machine at their fingertips.
