This piece is a scan of a collage. It is 100,000 ETH -- currently ~$1.8 million dollars -- as I post this. Buying / acquiring this NFT is (among other things) a sign of trust in me as an artist to do right by this amount of money (minus whatever fees OpenSea takes). I'm trying to make a bunch of art (among other things), and if you buy / acquire this piece it would instantly free me from having a job. It's also fairly prestigious to buy / have / own an NFT for $1.8 million dollars (as another reason to buy / purchase / own this).

If you buy this piece, I'd be happy to answer any questions / talk with you about it, or about my whole "art practice" / life. I recognize this is a lot of money to some people and also pocket change (in a sense) to others. This would be a particular kind of allocation of money in a particular way, and I get that, sort of objectively speaking, it's a lot of money. It's sort of an investment in a sense, that I am and have been making as much art as I can over the years. Being freed from having a job, I'd be able to actually live / have the best of both worlds (in a possibly unfair, but real, way); living in the "modern world" of products and stuff and convenience, being able to buy food and pay rent, etc.

There is a lot I want to do and that I would do if I was free from having to have a job / make money. That's also one thing I hope collectively as humanity we can potentially make happen (via organizing world / global society differently, with whatever technology it would take possibly, but maybe it's already "enough", and just a question of information / organization), to free everyone from nonsense work (there is real work / real service / real useful objects / products of course, I'm not discounting that, or that it takes work to make / do those things. But there's a lot of nonsense work that people have to do to survive). In terms of my hope(s), the first (big) step is to not have any human starving or struggling to survive.

The goal (possibly) is to enable everyone to "self actualize". I think / wonder a lot what kind of world that would be, where everyone's free, to be themselves and just live. It doesn't take much to actually just live. Certainly possibly maybe it would be less materialistic. But that's fine, sometimes all I want to do personally is walk around and check things out and hang out with people and not worry about things, and that takes hardly any money at all.

Hopefully that adequately explains where I'm coming from with this NFT, if not, please contact me in a way that works for you and me; I'm located many places across the internet.
