Today I have made an important decision in my life 📢
I quit my job today and going to focus full-time on maintaining the first-ever open-source frontend @lenster.lens 🌸 powered by @lensprotocol 🌿.
Building social media was my dream since 10th grade, I built more than 4 social media in public but all failed, Lenster is my 5th one and it’s going crazy ⚡️.
I believe building in public is key 🔑 to the success of a product.
We have a lot of items queued up in the roadmap, be excited about it 🕺
**Collect this post for 2 WMATIC and support Lenster’s development 🙏**
- Calling Santa asking if he could make me #lens Fakemous lol
Allô Santa? 🥹👀 I got a tiny request ser.

- "Between All Time" 3/3
"Between All Time" is a liminal dreamscape exploring themes of consciousness and self awareness. Created with circuit bent video hardware, AI and video synthesis 📺
Collectors of all 3 segments will be airdropped the complete video.
- "Cyborg Qilin 半機器人獨角獸" in chrome.
- Having spent a few days in Mexico City surrounded by fellow artists, I fell in love with the city. I reached a new technical level where I could be more expressive. Architecture, people, and culture were potent and aesthetically inspired me, so I adopted a new colourway. The following outputs are from the four commits I added to the project over my week there.
- gm! the second chapter is here 🥰

- **Ambrosia 3**
Number three of the three pieces we are posting for the @refraction X @lensprotocol fellowship.
"Ambrosia 3" we mixed medium format captured photographic images with 3d elements used in the original design of the clothing, collaging it together beyond recognition, our model becoming fused into the clothing pieces themselves. An internal landscape of colour and texture, this piece was made in collaboration with artist Sam Rolfes.
**Ambrosia 3 will be limited to 100 pieces.**
Thank you for collecting ✨✨✨
- More of "Cyborg Qilin 半機器人獨角獸" - the mythical hooved Chinese unicorn in neon. Also known as the Japanese "kirin 麒麟." Artwork sculpted in Zbrush & Maya, rendered in Arnold.
- "Between All Time" 2/3

- I worked on ‘nth culture’ for three months - the longest I've worked on a single project. It had a lot of ups and downs, both on a technical and an emotional side. I was trying to represent my heritage whilst pushing myself technically. I was happy with the result, I had learned a lot, so It was time to push myself further. These outputs come from 3 commits I made while travelling to Mexico. There wasn't a particular style or direction in mind - just vibes.
- **Desert Shards**
Number two of the three pieces we are posting for the @refraction.lens X @lensprotocol fellowship.
“Desert shards” was shot at the Trona Pinnacles in Death Valley, in the height of summer, the day time temperature exceeded 110+ degrees fahrenheit. While capturing images of mirrored portals the heat cracked them, creating “Desert Shards”. As the sunset, an other-worldly light gave the environment the surreal quality captured here. The desert is beautiful but with more than a hint of menace.
- Proud to announce the @refraction.lens x @lensprotocol Artist Fellowship Collection. For this special drop, we've curated artworks from 8 amazing artists in the web3 space - with a focus on concepts of ownership, narrative and one’s identity on the blockchain.

- Sharing my first work on here "Cyborg Qilin" featuring the mythical Chinese unicorn chasing the pearl of wisdom through the virtual matrix. The Qilin is a hooved chimera first mentioned in The Classic of Poetry (11th-7th century BCE) and is said to appear with the imminent arrival or death of a great sage.
- Those who’ve known my stance on the NFT craze know I was quite against the money grab it became. I held off in order to make sure the back end had a proper use case. Since going down the Web3 wormhole years ago, I’ve wanted to create an NFT that holds integrity in both, its artwork and its utility. In this case, all limited edition 50 collectors of the work will be able to use the NFT as an access pass for my next upcoming show of ::BLUE:: at NFT NYC and future events to come. Each collector of this piece will be later airdropped their own limited edition 1-of-1 numbered frame.
Title: ::BLUE:: (Scene 4 - Flying Over Fukushima)
- **Infinite Dress**
Very excited for our @refraction.lens X @lensprotocol fellowship collection starting today! I chose pieces that explore our post-reality world using lens-based art.
This is the first of three pieces i'll be posting in this series.
For “Infinite Dress” I pushed the concept of the fashion image into hypnotic, abstract territory. Created with a mixture of medium format digital photography and 3d, I embraced the intoxicating energy and colour of creation.
Thank you for collecting ✨✨✨
