For the past six months, I’ve been working with my collaborators Carsten Lambrecht of Creatokia and Honolulu based digital artist Femmebot to bring my book Notes from Nowhere to life. This has been an immersive process that has involved all of us exploring new technologies and ways of telling stories – which is fitting since…

Bitcoin Pizza Day – 2023 – May 22nd Free Pizza Party in Honolulu
For those who don’t know – Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated around the world. It’s the day the first commercial transaction was made with Bitcoin – a day in which Laszlo paid 10,000 BTC for two large pizzas. Those 10,000 BTC have been worth as much as $750 million dollars at one point. But it…
NFT-NYC 2023 – My Experience
These were the notes I presented inside the Vagobond Magazine discord. They aren’t complete by any means, I simply wanted to share what NFT-NYC has been like for those who are curious and not here. To be fair, I think a conference like this is different for every attendee. In a way it’s like minting…
Author’s Note from my serialized novel Sly Doubt of Uranus: The History of a Lovable Asshole
A Brief Explanation. In mid-2021, I minted an NFT from a Pixel Vault collection then called Metahero (now Inhabitants).

Back in the USA – New York City is the World
There has been so much that I’ve learned on this trip around the world – I simply can’t get into it yet (later posts I will) – but coming back to America feels (and is) like the beginning of the end of this trip. I’m happy that the last stop is New York City in…
Erro – Iceland’s Most Famous Pop Artist
On our last day in Iceland, we decided to spend more time exploring the streets and museums of Reykjavik. The museums were a little expensive and for the most part, fairly standard fare. At this point in history, I feel like most museums are better visited online without the crowds or the expensive entrance fees….
Telling Stories in Web3 – A Look at the State of the Web3 StoryVerse
I’m still on this trip around the world, still sharing the mission of Bald Jesus, and still trying to introduce people I meet to NFTs – but I haven’t been writing about NFTs much lately – although – I have been creating free, time limited NFTs about my journey and the people and places I’ve…
