    "I would love to see your art someday as well....so I can see why it is 'better' than NFTs."
    - dkoblesky


    This is the last exhibition I did as an artist in 1998. It's called "Los días solo se suceden". It's an installation of a ghost house that intended to serve as a crime scene to the mundane.
    I don't think it's better than NFTs. I think it took part in the discussion of the local artworld in its time.
    I'm waiting on your expertise to see if my opinion is worthy of QBN.

    • well this is pretty cool. some very interesting imagery. I like the hangers and the bed. obviously tough to translate to NFT since it is an installation...dkoblesky
    • believe me, people are trying to figure out how to convert ALL art to NFTs, even things like this.dkoblesky
    • thanks for sharing.dkoblesky
    • I'm not trying to convert this to NFT. I haven't been an artist since 1998. I've been happy being a designer and developer since.palimpsest
    • I only posted this because I understood that we needed to justify our opinion with our art work to you.palimpsest
    • maybe I should not have lumped you in with babydick. he is the one calling out my artwork....apologiesdkoblesky
    • No need to apologize, we're good.
      Get that paper!

    • and someone can not like my art...big deal.....it is just they he used it as part of his argument about why NFTs are shit....dkoblesky
    • and I was like....well let's see your artwork. he is not as open as youdkoblesky
    • NFTs are shit tho XD
      Your art is not the issue.

    • are we starting up again...LOL....look at SuperRare and Known Origin....you will find art you think is good. Promisedkoblesky
    • I have. No luck. It is what it is.palimpsest
    • That's exactly where you are wrong, everything can be converted to Nft, an Nft is like an authentic registered inside the blockchain.kaffa23
    • There are a lot of artists selling both the nft and the physical object.
      This way among other things the registration remains and no one else can fake a work.

    • It is a more democratic and horizontal way that gives everyone the opportunity to sell and buy art, outside the elitist mechanisms of the galleries.kaffa23
    • @dkoblesky
      You said yourself that NFT has no impact on your art. We're just talking about different things.

    • We'll never agree. I'm saying the brick is red while you're saying the brick is heavy.palimpsest

      When you sell an NFT you are selling AN NFT. That's the only thing that's new, you are selling the receipt instead of the object.

    • You don't always need to sell an object, just don't tell me the receipt is the object or that the receipt is changing the way the object is being made.palimpsest
    • @palimpsest
      the authentic is worth much more than the physical object, museums are full of fakes.

    • The authentic what, gif?
      An NFT is a token with a link to a hosted gif, there is no authentic gif.
      An NFT is only proof that you paid for an NFT.
      palimpsest
    • But that is not my issue. My issue is that you are selling a shitty (or not) gif that was collecting dust in your HD through the NFT platform. There is no art.palimpsest
    • I haven't seen any 'NFT art' that fits my definition of art. Therefore, in my view, NFT has nothing to with art.palimpsest
    • @palimpsest
      who are you to say what is and what isn't art...? why couldn't a gif be a work of art?

    • as you said
      "The only valuable reason to be against NFTs is to not understand NFTs."
      My 84 year old father understood what NFTs are.
