Gene's new drop Abrahams First Works is so interesting and fun that I couldn't stop at 1, 2, 3, or even 10 works. And I am still looking - check out @automataisart and @genekogan for drop details.

The art is first come first serve for anyone that can figure out the seed phrases of any of these wallets. There'll be no hints, but will say that everything you need to solve the puzzle will be found in the various promotions leading up to the sovrn pop-up at Marfa. Good Luck.

There is a saying that we are the average of the 5 people we spend the most time with. And while I don't know if that is true, I feel like I am the average of all the artists I admire and spend time with. Thank you everyone and know that if I have collected your art, you have

Working with @Isakost on Wunderkammer was a collaborative joy. She took the art so seriously, but at the same time worked with me to make it 100% on-chain. Thank you for teaching me how you can both stay true to the art, but also be flexible. 9/10

Wow - and @LookHighward - Man, Look's Possibility Spaces showed me it was possible to make a unique look in the AI space, if you are just creative enough. Always try to channel that especially when trying to find a unique aesthetic for the upcoming cloudpainter series. 8/10

Another artist that I have just felt simpatico with from first time we met, is @annespalter . OG digital artist that goes even further back than OG crypto artists, whose views on the digital art space are probably the most spot on of anyone I know. 7/10

And @BardIonson - thanks for being the consummate explorer and experimenter. His work inspires me to try everything. If you are not familiar with every experimental concept he has explored, you could fill in all the days between now and Marfa going down that rabbit hole. 6/10

OK, another artist I look at for guidance is @NorrieHarman. When I see the cohesiveness and story telling of SIGHTSEERS, I always strive to match that, but more importantly the integrity Norrie has as an artist. His integrity just can be matched. 5/10

Another major influence is @MLOdotArt. The new robot is named cloudpainter, cause like MLO, it likes to paint clouds. So interesting to wonder how much of this came from admiring his work and concepts. 4/10
