  1. Following The Line - Interview with CCDDBB (Claudio Dalla Bernardina)

    Following The Line - Interview with CCDDBB (Claudio Dalla Bernardina)

    In this interview episode of Waiting to Be Signed, artist CCDDBB (Claudio Dalla Bernardina) recounts growing up in a small village in Italy, learning BASIC on a VIC-20 and later HTML/JavaScript, studying fine arts/media design in Milan, doing 3D work and photography, producing documentaries, then moving to Thailand to manage a restaurant. He describes how COVID shutdowns and his long involvement with crypto led him to Tezos NFTs, early activity on Hic Et Nunc, and then fx(hash), where he learned generative techniques through community peers. He discusses his evolving approach using “profiles” for meaningful rarity and his ongoing “Potable Mess” series.

    Can't Live A Normal Life: Interview with Jammasterlee

    Welcome everyone to a special & long-in-the-making WTBS interview episode! Many listeners are probably not aware of Steven Lee aka Jammasterlee on tiktok & twitter. Steven leveraged his entire life on Bitcoin back in 2021 with the goal of retiring off the crypto bull market. He quit his job and put every dollar he could get his hands on into a leveraged Bitcoin position... and he put the whole thing on tiktok. Steven is now working on editing his videos together into a movie to encapsulate the phase of his life. I found Steven at the beginning of his story and have been watching ever since. Hope you all enjoy! Follow Steven on Twitter @jammasterlee Follow Steven on Tiktok @jammasterlee Check out Steven's Substack as well!

    10 Artists Planning Open Form Releases on fx(hash)

    In this special 'call-in' episode of 'Waiting to be Signed,' host Will dives into the excitement surrounding fx(hash)'s new Open Form generative art platform and the launch of its token. This episode features 10 artists who generously took the time to record their response to three prompts: 1. Tell us about your project, what ideas/themes are you exploring here? 2. what was your experience like creating an Open Form project? How did you take into account the potential for large edition size? What about the generational/evolution aspect that is now enabled?, 3. How do you feel about releasing an $art coin as part of your project? What will your coin be called? Are you excited for this new system? Any big fears or concerns?
