We got to chat with Colin about his experience as an artist pushing forward into digital expressionism and nfts.  I've known Colin for about 20 years and he's always been, at his core, an artist.  Music, painting, merch design, digital media, nfts...Colin understands that art is an expression and that the medium is the vehicle. 

Join us as we explore his journey and how he is embracing nfts and finding new ways to express his art.

Join us as we sit down and chat with Nate Bear, aka BEARBRAINS about his journey into the world of nfts.  Nate has been making art professionally for a long time and has decided to go deep into the world of nft's and the cryptoverse.

We try to break down some surface ideas and topics around the idea of nfts, from solo pieces of art, to animations and collections.  Nate recently was involved in a collection drop for Space Poggers and we discuss his role in it's creation and talk about how you can make a collection of nfts.  

Our goal is to openly talk about nft's in a way that hopefully sparks your interest to check it out on your own to see if it's something to get into with your own art.  It's a fascinating world and things are moving fast, but it's putting power back into the hands of artists.

Nate has managed to bridge the gap into this new format and shares with us his journey into the space.

Join us in the lab as we get to talk to Daniel Quasar, creator of the Progress Pride Flag which has rocketed into the lexicon of culture.  We talk to Daniel about the process of creating the flag, it's meaning, goal and the wild ride since its inception in 2018.  It's acceptance has brought with it tons of opportunities for education and events they never would have thought possible.  Daniel is an artist at the core and we hear about what it's been like to design something from the heart that's exploded into society.  We also get to chat to Daniel about their music, the process of producing a double LP and more.

Leave your hate at the door and join us to open your eyes and ears to progress.
