Remember to Breathe is my first open edition as an artist and is free to mint on the Base network via Highlight.xyz as part of OᑎᑕᕼᗩIᑎ ᔑᑌᗰᗰEᖇ
I created Remember to Breathe as a reminder.
No matter what life throws at you, no matter how much drama fills your timeline, and no matter how challenging it is to navigate the world of web3, take a deep breath. Reflect on how far you've come and all the things that had to happen to bring you to where you are right now. Take a look around, soak it all in, and just breathe.
The time-lapse you see here was captured on July 14th, 2019 at 6:09:12 to 6:33:38
at Moraine Lake in Canada (51°19'38"N 116°10'48"W
). This was captured at the same time and location "Closing Capture" currently held by 69 (nice) amazing collectors.
The artwork is condensed down to 60 seconds, set to rhythmic breathing and music to help you clear your mind and recenter.
Moraine Lake holds a special place in my heart not just because it's easily one of the most beautiful places on our earth, but because it one of the most accessible locations to bring people to when visiting the Canadian Rockies. The lake presently sits at the end of a 11 KM road that had been open to traffic from (dates). The lake is visited every year by over (blank) people. In (date) the government of Canada made the decision to close the road to the public and now requires visitors to arrive via shuttle or private bus. Places like this are already difficult to visit for the vast majority of the world due to economic reasons, travel restrictions, or mobility. My goal as an artist has always been to capture these beautiful locations and share them with as many people as possible. I continue my journey as an artist through photography, video and timelapse, 3D renders, and eventually fully interacte 3D experiences.

Scobel is a 3D artist who found their artistic roots in photography and videography. Scobel has been minting artwork on the blockchain since the early days of 2021, starting first with creating promo videos for other notable artists, and then minting their own landscape photography on-chain. Scobel's transition to 3D art has lead to notable mints like "Eyes on Earth" a 24 Simulation of the 3000+ satelittes on earth (collected by 6529), and "Haceta" a 3D replica of the Heceta Head Lighhouse and coastline in Oregon, USA (Collected by Norcal). His recent series CAFO, explored the world of science, remote sensing data, and the importance of our digital memories with 30 new experimental pieces minted over the course of 90 days.
