people don't realize that art onchain is undoing the sharing of art with lack of context of the artist & the work.

imagine if tumblr teens grew up with a deeper knowledge of the art and poetry and photography they were consuming? now, they can.

they can fall down rabbitholes, they can follow something all the way back to its source.

they can draw meta—narratives to their work and they can build hyperstructures around their rich innerworlds.

the interconnectedness matters. but so does the context.

an aesthetic image my inspire an artist's style. but the context & the concept behind the image-making is what creates the craft — something so much larger than even themselves.
