SquiggleDAO has SOLD Chromie Squiggle #1458 to @ToledoMuseum 🎉🎉🎉 The Toledo Museum of Art, founded in 1901, houses an impressive array of artwork, including pieces from renowned artists like Van Gogh, Monet, and Rembrandt, as well as exceptional glass art that reflects Toledo’s history as the "Glass City." The museum also stands out as one of the few institutions actively collecting digital art, embracing the evolving landscape of contemporary creativity. By acquiring works that incorporate digital techniques, blockchain technology, and generative algorithms, the museum acknowledges the growing significance of digital media in artistic expression. This acquisition is significant for several reasons: 🌈 Squiggle #1458 is the first public acquisition by a museum from the secondary market. It was purchased onchain, with royalties paid. This forward-thinking approach not only preserves groundbreaking works for future generations but also reinforces the museum’s commitment to innovation. It ensures the museum remains a leader in the global art conversation. 🌈 The Ghost Squiggle’s form is ideally suited for transformation into physical sculptures. Given the Toledo Museum’s expertise in glass artistry, this acquisition is a perfect match. 🌈 This marks the first time a DAO has sold a piece of art to a museum. SquiggleDAO continues to lead the collector DAO space, with the hope that other DAOs, Web3 companies, and institutions will follow suit. 🌈 This particular piece is a Ghost Squiggle, one of just 20 in existence, the second Ghost ever minted, and one of the most prized works in the DAO’s collection. Ghosts are Ribbed Squiggles with a segment color between 252 and 255, inclusive. They are called Ghosts because they are nearly invisible. “Perfect Whites” fully blend into the background, meaning 255. We’re honored that this rare piece will now become part of the Toledo Museum’s permanent collection. 🌈 Squiggle #1458 was also featured as the centerpiece of our 2024 Glitch Marfa event, where heat-sensitive mugs revealed the Squiggle when exposed to heat and were showcased on billboards around New York City. We’ve provided 50 of these mugs to the museum for their current exhibition, Infinite Images: The Art of Algorithms.

Love seeing @thejaysf on the big screen. GM.

The @campnetworkxyz is pushing some creative innovations at the intersection of PFPs and AI. They launched the TrailHeads pfp a few weeks ago on @rarible , and then built a remix engine to let owners create new scenes for their PFPs, which are then minted into a remix contract on rarible .fun.

Thanks to @GregOakford and @MrCable0x on sharing the @FLAMINGODAO story!

Another banger from @punk6529. Punks, Squigs, Gazers, Everydays, Twin Flames, ASCs... These are the scarcest cultural objects ever made.

I mean there are sports stars making $100m per year. Think of the best AI leaders in this way and it kinda makes sense. There are probably only 50 people that all the top Labs are trying to recruit.

We’ve hollowed out the firewood chopping jobs that used to let the middle class support a family on a single income

Nearly time for a Porchfest.
