over the past three weeks I’ve been in recovery from a jaw surgery and in the meantime I’ve taken to documenting some memories. in 2019 I went to Japan as an artist in residence, below is a collection of photos from my time there [TRAVELOG] JAPAN ART RESIDENCY https://zora.co/collect/zora:0x44e41c2b1922faf46e3867aa101cfc5cf51e94ea
Had a chance to go to FEST without expectation. I had some of the best conversations with the smartest people. What a time. Also had a chance to debut some of the newest @blvkhvnd.lens gear too 🤌🏿🔥🙏🏿 Thx @stefdelev.lens for modeling the hat S/o to @bradorbradley.lens @ravibakhai.lens and the homies at Lore & Seed Club for rocking the HVND this past weekend too
We’re the face of Apex Legends Indonesia because we’re the only roster in the region with Indonesian talent that’s made it to the playoffs and world championship. It’s incredible to see how much the country has rallied around us—I’m so grateful for the support. We’re currently looking at ways to bring more into the fold of crypto especially as the country has 11m crypto users out of a 150m population. Indonesia has a very inflated native currency which makes general retail a massive struggle, but if we can break down these barriers with sport, then anything is possible. Follow along with @blvkhvnd.lens If you’re interested in investing in APAC region leave a comment (I can’t seem to turn on dms)

Hey what’s good I’m Sirsu / Su I’ve been a multidisciplinary designer for over a decade working on a variety of projects and I’d like to spend a few posts telling you a bit about me and what I’m passionate about! For my general design background, you can check it at https://read.cv/sirsu For things related to web3 you can check out my work with https://themint.fund the #cryptocookout project https://twitter.com/ourzora/status/1424938522687901704?s=46&t=2-ZvcjQnOZootU5bEnaF_w, and most recently, @blvkhvnd.lens.lens (http://blvkhvnd.wtf). As far as building community my work has influenced a great deal of projects in the space from Zoratopia, Refraction, Magna DAO, HerStory, Digital Diaspora, and more. Some of the technical contributions to the space stem from a joint effort between Mint Fund, Mirror, and Zora to build a permissionless auction method that was ground zero for Zora Auction Houses, Mirror Crowdfund auctions, and the breakout of other artist led frameworks. From esports, I am actively building a tournament protocol called https://projectstadium.com that is onboarding web2 pros into crypto via broadcasted competitive events (which one is ongoing currently). Serving over 130 pro players and teams, we hope to onboarding several more esports communities on platform over the coming months serving Apex Legends, Parallel, Wildcard, Tekken 8, etc with help from the gaming communities here on Lens. As @blvkhvnd we have several big esports achievements within our first two years as a DAO: 1 world championship 1 regional championships 4x seasonal championships 7 teams 4 regions Global impact from day 1 We are not well known in the web3 space despite being crypto native—the communities that do know us are the folks we need desperately to fall in love with web3 and most of them don’t. We are at the nexus of that conversion based on our brand cache. It’s the reason why a 12 year old can spot the HVND in a video game. That’s powerful stuff! I believe that gaming is the catalyst for mass adoption to onchain tech. And hopefully with a little bit more exposure, folks will be inclined to join us in our efforts to making it a reality. Thanks to @christina.lens and the lens team for getting me on Orb, I’m really excited to meeting a lot of you. If you’re into gaming as much as me, we should play some time! I’m HVNDSU on steam 🔥
