Auction Time

Hello friends,

Running a little experiment today that I thought would be worthy of an email.

Here’s the idea:

"Workday" 4 pieces of non-fungible performance art 3 hours of my time to be directed at a creative exercise of your choosing Lowest reserve set Let the market decide Auctions below ↓

If you’ve been following on Twitter lately then you’ll have seen me diving into the world of NFTs, but this one is a little different (and “riskier”) for a few reasons:

The first assumption I’m making is that people know what they need help with (in my experience that’s rarely true).

The second assumption is that they know what I can help them with. Because this is being presented in the context of Visualize Value, I’m assuming most will have an idea of the type of work we’re talking about.

Third, it limits auction participants to holders of ETH (a massive reduction in market size).

Fourth, people bid publicly (revealing their identity in some cases) — and most of us do transactions like this in private.

Lastly, I spend a lot of time writing about how selling time isn’t the cleverest way to work, but today I’m making an exception in the name of art.

All auctions hit their opening bids (thank you if you’re reading this), and results will be in within 24 hours, you can follow along (or bid) here: foundation.app/@visualizevalue

See you somewhere on the internet shortly,
