  1. Awesome! Saw the ones on instagram, I was gonna said it has a very ayahuasca vision type of art and you already did ceremonies, lovely! Same here ahó! Yea recording the process is fun, extra work for me hehe, but fun. Why you have to wait that long?
  2. Cool, what kind of art do you make? And no my art is either at the link and here too:
  3. Welcome to the forum! Credit to @StarStruck for the meme.
  4. Yesterday I deleted all my NFTs, I was on microdose (0.2g) of a blend of mushrooms (I could write a thread apart about it), and contemplate just about NFTs and sell my art as a freelance. I wasn’t feeling so good tbh that day, I find it myself overthinking a lot about the subject, I even asked other artists their thoughts about making and having NFTs and they seemed fine with it. By the end of the day I ended deleting all my NFTs on Opensea (it was just 2 artworks, it’s been there for a week). Now I’m in the process of sell my art in other websites like Ko-Fi and Gumroad (site for artists sell brushes, tutorials, etc.), that is gonna be my assignment from now on. Of course the ideal is to sell it on my own website but right now I don’t have one nor the budget for now. I’m also starting to learn tattooing so that also will keep me busy. My issue with NFTs it was that it wasn’t enough “material or practical” for me. If I’m gonna buy anyones NFTs, I don’t want just a jpeg, gif, etc. I would like to also OWN the files, see the DNA of the work, maybe add extra stuff like your thought process, tutorials, etc. The original file could be enough, but if im giving you thousands of dollars, which is what a commission would cost, at least give me all your original files? Fair game imo. As far the talking of NFTs on Twitter goes, I could open another thread or comment aside the opening here. I honestly felt very welcomed on Twitter with these NFTs communities. On Twitter you can have like a “live podcast post” where anyone can join and talk, there is a lot of these tho. Of course there is ego games on these talking, like people just being there just to get recognized and/or they just wanna sell their NFTs. First of all, I don’t find the necessity forcibly talk about NFTs daily in order to keep it alive, because like any other art talks aside of NFTs, if the idea or concept is actually good, people will just keep talking about it without force it. Maybe some people might feel like this is a cult, I have to study that in dept but yea, I felt there was a lot of “this is the future, the banks will fall, we are just getting starting!” and yara yara. That’s it for now, thank you for reading. ?
  5. I’m not upset, is just you looked impatience on my end. Your body, your choice, but be aware, idk how much trauma it could grow from that experience.
  6. Is called common sense, how the fuck do you expect someone to answer you quickly? Idk if you’re a adult but if you’re not then ok, I can understand your impatience.
  7. After talking with people involved with this through the month, talking of posible future projects and making it a big deal, yes it was. But thanks to this, now I’m taking action to sell my art elsewhere.
  8. Dude…relax! You know we are human beings and we have a life right? We have a lot of more stuff going on and work to do outside either the forum and the internet.
  9. Gracias a ti Leo! For your patience and understanding, we are doing the best we can with our lives at the end, we are here to help each other. ??? Meme of the month.
  10. Thanks for your feedback! I ended deleting all my NFTs yesterday, I just opened a thread about it. No doubt there is a lot of money involved, but how practical and long-term beneficial this is, not sure.
  11. I just dropped my first NFT this week, I’ve been struggling a bit recently as a freelancer so after years of criticize NFTs, I took some months of research and speaking to close friends who had done it and got results with success. Are they anyone here involved? Share your experience!
  12. I made a Twitter account this month, later on I might share some insights as a freelance artist. I just followed Lex Fridman and felt to share this here. I understand he had done psychedelics before but, I guess depending the person and dose, at least for me at the beginning of consuming magic mushrooms, it was quite obvious that time was a illusion, shocking too ofc at first.
  13. I’ll add that Eckhart Tolle audible/book “The Power of Now” helped also a ton for understand this.
  14. A bizarre one would be when you think of someone or something and after a while you encounter the person or the event happens!
  15. Thanks, I’ll contemplate deep about it then to let it go. I guess being frustrated financially as a artist could lead you to this. Also found this: Will think about it.
  16. I’ll contemplate about it before keep doing it, I’m open to be wrong and know why. I sent you a PM but if you feel to answer here then is fine.
  17. @Roy I understand you work on a office or something like that right? Is ok. This might be a relative take of mine but in my view, when I work on something that is not related to my art, I notice that people will get more on my nerves. But when I’m making my LP, the stupidity or whatever you wanna call about humans, is actually my inspiration for me to either learn more about myself or see where I am standing in life overall. Nowadays I think I can empathize a lot, if I see people doing big drama or something silly which happened a lot on my previous work at a supermarket, I can always trace it back to their childhood or maybe they are not having a good time that day. I guess I’m pretty laid back in that sense. Hope it helps!
  18. Same goes with NFTs, I just opened a thread but about artists on the forum. I’ve been in a couple of Live talks on Twitter and I get this vibe at times, LOTS of rambling without get anywhere practical, lots of speaking about “the future of this, the future of that, oh yeah the banks this!, it’s just getting started!” and yara yara.
  19. Some might hate me for this, I never in a million years thought I would do this, but I just did my first NFT!: https://opensea.io/assets/ETHEREUM/0x495f947276749ce646f68ac8c248420045cb7b5e/26770641262083363363502730108192255375030872042719409752174593968353044332569 It is also my first pixel animation, ofc is not moving here on the forum but you can see it on opensea. Many people bring up the environment issue which it was also if not my biggest concern, but is not that big tbh compared to what we have nowadays days for years like: cars, phones, airplanes, construction places, the internet overall, etc. this is WAY less than that.
  20. Interesting case, it seemed that it reinforced his belief system as a Christian and by the end of the interview calls psychedelics all lies. This is why when I talk about psychedelics to people who are interested, I suggest always to study a bit of epistemology. Of course you’ll probably see the Buddah, Jesus or whoever, it doesn’t mean it is actually them!
  21. Yea, that’s what he said around 39:20, that microdosing and all this are lies, it doesn’t makes sense to keep consuming them to heal more because yara yara why God would do it X and Y way.
