This is my first video essay, so I wanted to share with you one of my special interests:
💚 Neon Genesis Evangelion 💜
In this video, I briefly discuss the meaning of the hedgehog's dilemma proposed by the philosopher Schopenhauer and how this dilemma is reflected in the work of Hideaki Anno 🧐

- Art NFT Curation in a Bear Market w/María Paula Fernández | S6 E4
Art NFT Curation in a Bear Market w/María Paula Fernández | S6 E4
On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with María Paula Fernández, co-founder of JPG and a true OG in the NFT space, about living through another bear market, how to be a good web3 art curator, and new blockchain art projects that should be on your radar.
The last time I interviewed MP was just over two years ago in September 2021. Many of you might recall that was peak bull market times and peak NFT hype. In fact, September 2021 was months before the most expensive NFT sold for the equivalent of nearly $92 million USD in December 2021 and when NFTs saw the biggest volume of sales in January 2022 with over $17 billion USD sold in NFTs. Contrast that to today, when the total sales volume of NFTs last month, September 2023, sat at only $340 million USD, or about 2% of January 2022 sales volume.
MP and I catch up on what she’s been up to since our last recording together and how she’s been feeling amidst yet another crypto bear market - and notably one that feels different from previous bear markets she’s lived through. Even though overall sentiments are a bit low, I can always rely on Maria to bring some humor into the mix, as we come to the shocking realization that Michael Lewis is in fact the new Tom Cruise (tune into this episode and you’ll hear what I mean).
We then dive deep into the world of art curation and what the role of a curator is, especially in the web3 world. MP believes a good web3 curator is a good storyteller and a good educator, and we look at a new JPG exhibit, Generative Art Beyond the Algorithm, as an example of good curation.
Something else I always look forward to and learn from my chats with MP are new artists and projects I should be paying attention to - especially in the generative art and conceptual art space. She mentions a ton of artists in this episode, and I’ve done my best to link all of them or their relevant projects in the show notes below. Two artists MP references in this episode are Sarah Meyohas and Mitchell Chan, who were guests on Rehash S4 E6, and I would encourage you all to go back and listen to that episode for more context on their work.
Also, if you want to learn more about MP’s background, how she got into art and crypto and the work she’s done in the space over the last seven years, you can go back and listen to my previous interview with her from September 2021 on The Unstoppable Podcast.

- C2W RUNWAY TEASER - 75 UP FOR GRABS, FREE FOR A WEEK, ONLY FOR FOLLOWERS!
Hey everyone 🫵🏼🫠
After a rollercoaster of a journey with the 7th Cohort at @verticalcrypto.lens x @pronounceddrop.lens here I am presenting you: the #C2W VRM collection!
Over 6+1 weeks, every day was a new adventure - playing around with garments, bodies, textures, and lots of new tricks and treats. All to dig deeper into the concept of what an Avatar can really be. The result? I don’t know, to be honest, it is such a new area to explore for us.🧸
So, what's C2W? "Click-2-Wear", is an experimental take on fashion in the virtual world, consisting of 16 unique avatars ready to mint for 0.08 eth, only if you attend the event.
🥻🩸
On the 30th, during our Final Exhibition in London, 100 tickets for metaverse fashion runway will be on sale, only for a day. The artwork used in the ticket hints at the concept, but it’s more than that, believe me. That might be your best metaverse experience ever, in 10 minutes in total.
Each ticket comes with a free C2W Avatar! So when you grab your ticket, you get a cool avatar to go with it. “The Viewer”. When the ticket sale is complete, all the ticket owners will be able to get into the token-gated zone where the magic happens.
And it’s all happening on 7th October at Hyperfy and Mona.
Take a sneak peek attached to this post - it’s a little taste of what’s to come, with Polaroid shots of some selected fits for the drop. It's a small thank you for following along. What do you think? Excited as I am? Thanks for being part of this journey!
It's easy trade, get your ticket on the 30th, wear your free avatar, join the event, and click to the future💖

Breaking new ground…
First multi-recipient collect on a collaboration between @jamieforsyth.lens and @jamesfinnerty.lens
This piece was conceived in a solar-powered shipping container studio in the forests of Northern California. (*in fact, at the moment this was recorded the sun was powering the whole studio directly through the solar panels; no battery bank needed!)
We started with a mono, overhead drum recording using a single mic, and some bass accompaniment done together in a single live improvised take. It was then passed back and forth remotely to add acoustic and electric guitars and then the final touches.
Drums, electric guitars & mixing: Jamie Forsyth
Bass, acoustic guitars, mixing & mastering: James Finnerty
This is also the first time using the @buttrfly.lens audio upload. We are fans of the amazing work that @moe.lens is doing. 🔥

- Color Transitions
This generative artwork is inspired by Joseph Albers' book "Interaction of Color" and represents an animated transition between different colors and gradients.
A color can be perceived differently depending on what color it is adjacent to. The color, its hues and combinations with other colors have the ability to affect how we feel. A change in color causes a change in emotions. The perception of color is an individual experience, unique to each person.
