I'm learning that the NFTS are bigger every day. It's literally impossible for a person to follow them alone.
Different NFTS in different places every day. And for some reason, they all look good to me. I can't decide whether it's the art or the blockchain that makes them beautiful. But I'm sure they're really beautiful.
I feel enlightened when I read your article. I'm so happy to learn new information and something I don't know.
I thought Cryptopunks and Cryptokitties were the pioneers of NFT collections, I didn't know about neither Robness nor Rare Pepes. I like the simplicity and amusement they have, but I equally dislike it since I hate Pepe :'D.
The pieces Robness came up with, and how he is expressing himself through Twitter and other artists shouts out to his uniqueness. Isn't art shaped around uniqueness in this modern times? I think it is the reason why he became this much successful.
I especially like how he created his first trash can, then following the sequences of events he also made a collection out of it. I interpret him together with his weird (weird but not in a bad way) personality. That's what makes his art unique, also popular.
I'm thinking this way: is there anyone in this planet who doesn't know about Lady Gaga? At least everyone might have heard her name somewhere. It is just because she has a weird personality, and that makes her unique.
Burning a Cryptopunk to make art out of it? That describes who Robness is. Maybe he isn't crazy as Lady Gaga is , yet I think there is no level system to define uniqueness. Everyone is unique in their own way.
I consider you champion of NFTwriter. You are my favourite, shush! It's between ourselves. :P
It was a little long but I enjoyed reading it. I guess my answer will be too long, I apologize in advance, lol.
Of course, I am against copyright theft. However, I also support remixing. Art is such a thing that it gains meaning with the performing artist. Each artist has their own style and interpretation. More than one artist can produce a different piece of art on a subject. At the same time, by remixing a work of art, it can enable us to have very different conversations about this work.
When you said "a series of simplistic Trash GIFs", Andy Warhol immediately came to mind. Especially the very popular "Marilyn Diptych". Although not very relevant...
One of Andy Warhol's famous slogans: "I like boring things." "I like things to be exactly the same over and over again."
On page 50 of his book, Popism, He explained that he embraced boredom, repetition, and dominance:
“I don't actually want it to be the same, I want it to be exactly the same. Because the more you look at something exactly the same, the more meaning moves away from you and the better and more empty you feel.”
The repetition he refers to here is both a weakening of meaning and a protection against influence.
Anyway, I've gotten too far off topic again, lol. What I want to tell here is that repetitions are also included in art, and in order for a work to be called art, its production does not have to exceed a certain time limit. This goes against the nature of art.
I laughed at his defense for these Trash GIFs he made in less than 5 minutes, but he's right. This defense alone shows how different he is!
In typography, we call it majuscule. We use this often if we want to shout at someone by writing. But I say often, not always. He really looks like he's always shouting. It's a choice though, and it's something like Robness' signature style.
Despite everything, when we examine all these, we can see that it works in general. He is very successful and unique. And as you said, he is an iconic artist who wised crypto art many years ago, which we can describe as a "locomotive".
Thanks for this delightful article, Etta. Love reading your articles and comments.
It's good to know how the NFTS started. Frankly, I'm not interested in such things. Like how something started.
But it takes courage to do something that hasn't been done before. Because anything can happen. Your work could go to waste. Or you can be punished for doing this.
In this respect, it is always valuable to be first. The NFTS are very interesting. I think he hypnotized me. Connected to me. I barely saved myself. But I think it contains a high amount of drugs:)
Thanks for The Good article. You've shown great and colorful NFTS.
Wow, what a crazy article. When the first nft came out, no one predicted that the event would grow this much. We are still at the beginning of the road, together we will become an even bigger community
This world is growing every day. What was at the beginning of this? This article is the perfect answer to the question. When we went back a few years, could we predict these days? I don't think so. I think we will say the same thing in the future.
This is the kind of article that just belongs in a history book at some point. The journey and detail of the early days of the NFT space are extremely cool to read. Need to go grab me some Pepe cards now...hahahaha

Quite a journey Robness had there.

These excellent NFTs are truly extraordinary and enormous, they all have meaningful histories and look great.
this is a great article
Thank you for explaining the history of crypto art so well.
I think the art history books taught in schools are waiting to be updated.
I think many people like me thought before this article that NFTs first started with CryptoPunks and CryptoKitties.
Robness is really important to the NFT world, we know that now. and we are grateful to him.
Of course, we should also thank you endlessly for sharing these wonderful and beautiful articles with us. Etta Tottietta tottie

Great article!

Many thanks for the article!
Great history lesson !
Is fucking wild to see how in so short time this has already grown so fast that some of us don’t even know how everything started.
Thanks for the amazing job you’re doing educating us
I always feel like I'm in an art class when reading Etta's articles, I learn a lot.
I love Eta Tottie as much as I hate Pepe. Great read anyway.
