(1/4) It's hard to put into words what the Goose Ringer has meant for me in this past 7 months. I remember the first day that images of
@dmitricherniak
's Ringers project was shared before launch and feeling something click for me as to what was possible with generative art.

Quick passing thought about collecting and discovery of photographers work. One of the best and most genuine ways I discover new work is not through shilly DM's or comments, but from observing genuine engagement with others and my own posts.

It’s been said many times before, but being able to connect with artists who you support (and collectors who support you) so easily is the greatest thing about this space. Outside of some language barriers, it feels so borderless and global in a way I’ve never experienced. 🤍

While thinking about how to display my Hashmark, it dawned on me that a rock I’d collected from the shore of the glacial river adjacent to this magical place could make the perfect little pedestal. A bit of work and voila - a perfect embodiment of my experience.

It’s okay to have missed out on moonbirds. It’s okay to not own a fidenza. No punk? No problem. Take your time and act with intention, the rest will follow. Don’t let the hype machine of CT get to you, there is plenty of them to find the right projects that are right for you. 🤍

Brings daily joy to our walls, and this Fidenza isn’t going anywhere. 🤍
To me the main value of the print (and why I choose to offer them) is that it allows you to really live with the artwork. Collectors who do that are probably personally getting more out of the work than collectors who don’t.

I just typed "this is a marathon, not a sprint" in two different DM's, so thought I would reiterate that sentiment here. Lots of pressure to sell work at an unreasonable pace in this space, and it's good to remind ourselves to act with intention and not to expect too much at once
