/lobotomy-v1 has been in my brain since 2022. Back then, it was called PARADISE_V2. It was supposed to be a "vacation album". I spent a lot of time in Nantucket, so it was 90% of my material. Nantucket became somewhat painful, and the multi-location framework wasn't feeling right, so the project sat on the shelf. I wanted to mint on the Zora protocol and get these memories out of my brain. It forced a simplification of the concept: just Nantucket. With one location, the story would make sense (reverse) chronologically. No need for metadata. Diving in and realizing how fascinating it is to edit photos 2 years after they were taken. Particularly bc I'm editing fuji film sim jpegs; what I'm editing is already post-processed. I'm collabing with 2022 photographer and editor me. It's a weird emotional and stylistic exercise and it's cathartic af. enjoy 💔❗❗❗

restroom used to be my go-to, but recently i've found facilities to be more hilarious. current rankings: 1. facilities 2. lavatory 3. restroom 4. washroom 5. bathroom Honorable mention: water closet. despite its humor properties it isn't smooth enough in conversation

Take this complaint functionally, not emotionally: It's wild that my recent posts garner <10 likes on avg. I don't farm out of principle and limited bandwidth, but should I have to to earn engagement? If we assume 5k/50k+ followers are real (still feels generous), the % is silly.

Tipping tokens are liable to becoming a burden, especially if the incentive weakens. Sense this with enjoy, though not as strongly as with degen, rare, etc. What if solving that internal problem was a bonus when solving for an external problem? A token can't survive if it doesn't solve an external issue. See degen

Lobotomy was a long time coming. While most of my work over the last two years was conceptual, Lobotomy is a story with a beginning and end. It's my most personal work and it will be cathartic to finally publish it

Artists are willing to post their art everyday but won't mint it (monetize it) bc scarcity? I do not think Zora's language around the behavior framework helps: Post (create) Mint (collect) Posting does a huge disservice to the act, and minting is confusing if not completely backwards.

Finding myself frustrated I haven't minted on my contracts in a couple weeks. Inspired by my friend @takshshikari.eth minting everydays, I realize I need to let go of certain constraints entirely. So much work I want to publish, and I'm stuck because of x, y, or z. The only constraints worth keeping are the concepts of the contracts themselves. I should consider them folders, and I should publish completed works into these folders when ready. The logistics of a drop are meaningless in an onchain environment where I don't have the clout to harness massive attention at will. Color me zora pilled, but the limited publishing tools combined w/ the longevity of secondary markets are a blessing. How many artists have the time to spend all day working a million details out? It pains me to let go in a sense; the details are part of the art. But perhaps it's more important to focus on telling compelling stories. With each token, and across each contract.
