    From the Ocean to the Moon - an open conversation with participants of BitBasel's Moon Based Art Gallery

    This episode of E.S.Now is going to be a little different.  To honor an innovative and expansive collaboration spanning art and environmental regeneration, from the ocean to the moon, we are having an open conversation with the leaders of BitBasel art gallery who is sending a micro-engraved solid gold disc or artwork curated by, Refi Tulum blockchain and regeneration, onto a rocketship to the moon, literally. This is a conversation between the gallery owner, curators and some of the artists themselves as we reach touch the moon and save the oceans simultaneously.  The Ocean SDG 14 Collection focuses on “Life Below Water.”  This collection will be exhibited during Miami Art Week and is part of BitBasel’s Lunar Mission—sending digital artworks to the moon as a timeless message of care for our planet.  In this unusual episode, we are turning over the mic to Sandra Ponce De Leon of Refi-Tulum, to be the host.  With special guests, co-founder of BitBasel Scarlett Aranared, and several of the participating artists that Sandra will introduce, including myself. This is a larger conversation about ocean conservation and the length of humanity's reach, that you will find absolutely fascinating. Let’s jump right in.  www.bitbasel.com www.instagram.com/refitulum
