An Artists View on NFTs, Art, and Apes - Jeffrey Alan Scudder
Listen now
Description
Jeffrey is one of only a handful of the pioneering artists in the NFT space who first launched their art on Bitcoin. I am by no means an art expert - though my artsy friends tell me Jeffrey is world-class - but I do know NFTs, and the work he did with Harm van den Dorpel and the Left Gallery beginning in 2016 set the stage for today's NFT art revolution. We discuss the early days of his art, putting works on the blockchain, and where he sees art NFTs in the future. Jeffery also shares his views on why so many contemporary artists are struggling when they see apes - like me - buying their works simply as an investment.  It was an eye-opener. I highly recommend you check out Jeffery's TikTok account because I think it gives you a glimpse into the way his mind thinks about art. It's amazing!!
