NFT’s (non-fungible tokens) blasted into the public consciousness seemingly overnight causing equal amounts of joy, intrigue, and disgust. One of the most divisive and thought-provoking mediums to hit the art community, it was quickly adopted by some creators and yet remains a mystery to many artists. In this candid conversation between coder and digital design strategist Sofia Garcia, and poet Sasha Stiles, we will discuss what it means to be working within these new potentials and speculative digital spaces. The speakers will introduce some of the main sites for crypto-art and demonstrate how an NFT is minted. Join us and bring your questions.
