In this episode I speak with DADA.nyc founder Bea Ramos. DADA is a social network where people from around the world speak to each other through drawings that you can collect on the Ethereum blockchain. Where other social art platforms are designed to share finished results (we never see how the sausage is made), DADA is skewed towards the artistic process - the making and building of creative muscle. Bea and her team have built a remarkable community that feels more like a family than a social platform.

KnownOrigin is part of a new breed of art marketplaces built on the blockchain. With Known Origin, blockchain and "digital scarcity" enable art lovers to collect digital art that is provably rare, opening up new channels for supporting artists and building your collection. Unlike many other blockchain-based marketplaces, KnownOrigin is carefully designing a bridge from traditional art sales to a blockchain-based art marketplace. They do this by having a physical presence with popup events in major cities globally and through innovative technology for storing, printing, and displaying art that would otherwise only exist digitally on the blockchain.

John Crain

SuperRare makes it easy to create, sell, and collect rare digital art. Their smart contract platform allows artists to release limited-edition digital artwork tracked on the blockchain, making the art rare, verified and collectible. In this episode I interview founders Jon Perkins and John Crain about what motivated them to create the market and where they see the blockchain art space going in the future. I am personally a big fan of their agile approach to development applaud them for listening to artists and collectors and designing around their wants and needs.

Kevin Abosch

The Forever Rose by artist Kevin Abosch sold on Valentines Day for $1 million. The sale captured the headline "...The World's Most Expensive Virtual Art". I had a chance to interview Kevin about his thoughts on the Forever Rose and the potential for blockchain and art. Kevin explained how the Forever Rose project came about, but wanted to start with his I Am A Coin project to provide the proper background. I had a great conversation with Kevin. He was extremely generous with his time, and I really enjoyed his line of thinking.

Jason Rosenstein

Archetype allows anyone to create their own cryptographic tokens representing memes, art, or any kind of information imaginable. The network effect of this technology is a living, breathing ecosystem of art, memes, and ideas, along with a myriad of new industries - the true meme economy.  In this episode I speak with Archetype Founder Jason Rosenstein. This conversation was early in my experience with blockchain and art and I had a lot of questions about how things work. Jason was extremely patient and helpful in answering them. My hope is that this episode will help others who have similar questions to learn more about the space.

Jess Houlgrave

Just a few short months ago there were quite literally just a handful of people with experience and knowledge of both blockchain and the traditional art market. Jess Houlgrave, Co-founder &amp; COO at Codex Protocol, was so far ahead of the curve on this front that the curve did not exist yet when she began her exploration.    I met Jess briefly at the Rare Digital Art Festival in NYC a few months ago, but had been following her research for a few months. I caught up with her for an interview to learn more about her unique background and the roadmap for the Codex Protocol. Codex is a blockchain based decentralized title registry for Art &amp; Collectibles.

How do I turn my creativity into money? Stellabelle started Slothicorn to help artists find an answer to that question. An artist herself, Stellabelle was able to escape the traditional 9-5 slog when she became a successful early contributor to Steemit. Steemit is a blogging and social networking website that uses its Steem blockchain-based rewards platform for publishers. Stellabelle leverages her authority in Steemit to monetarily reward artistic contributions and encourages artists to contribute to Creative Commons. Through her leadership, Slothicorn has grown a large community, or tribe, of artists working in collaboration. Stellabelle's approach is evolving over time as she better understands the needs of her tribe but her goal remains the same, to find a way to support artists in finding ways to get paid for their work.

Travis Uhrig

Travis Uhrig is the founder of Curio Cards and he organizes the Bitcoin meetup group in San Francisco, which boasts over 6,000 members. Last May, he quit his job altogether to become full-time crypto. This is around the same time that he launched the first set of Curio Cards. Curio Card's mission is to create a platform for artists and collectors that finally benefits artists. As it states on their website: "Until now it's not been possible to sell digital artwork without massive fees, theft, or restrictive DRM." Curio Cards is changing that. The project is doing phenomenally well, with over a thousand cards sold and artists making on average $300 - $900, according to Uhrig. Any artist can submit their work for free to be voted on at community.curio.cards.

Joe Looney

Artists are making thousands of dollars selling their work on blockchain-based marketplaces. Even better, these marketplaces take zero commission, so the artists receive 100% of the payment for their work. But where did the idea for these blockchain-based marketplaces come from? Joe Looney, the Godfather of CryptoArt and the creator of the Rare Pepe Wallet.  In this interview I talk with Joe to better understand how the Rare Pepe Wallet evolved from a small group on Telegram into the successful marketplace it has become today. We go deep into the subject of digital art and digital ownership and what it means for the future of art and collectibles.   Side note: Many know that Pepe the Frog was co-opted as a hate symbol by the alt-right in the past. Joe and the Rare Pepe community disavow the use of Pepe as a hate symbol and instead choose to use Pepe as a vehicle for designing and sharing creative memes.
