Upcoming at #NFTNYC:

If you are planning on being in NYC for #NFTNYC, I recommend you check out 'New York Now', curated by @clownvamp.

The one-night show features 50 AI-collaborative artists from members of MAIF, all reflecting upon what New York City means in 2024, both the lived experience of 8.5 million residents and the global symbol held up by billions.

The result, according to Clownvamp, is "an AI-driven journey into global symbols."

The show (r.s.v.p. here) is set for April 3rd from 6pm to 9pm at The Canvas 3.0 at Oculus World Trade.

Additionally, 10 1/1s (auctions) and 40 editions will drop on Foundation (Base L2) on April 3 as part of the event.
