Hi, my name is Chevy, and ah…
I have a problem.
I’ve formed a bad habit of obeying the demands of that little voice in my head that whispers “wouldn’t it be cool if…”
You know that one. (I call mine ‘Greg’).
It’s the same voice urging you to tinker and procrastinate on projects that may or may not have a clear reward at the end.
It’s the kind of project where you think, ‘I don’t know what this is, or who it’s for… but I’m glad it exists.’
It’s a problem. Because building a business takes focus and these “wouldn’t it be cool if…” projects can become MAJOR distractions very quickly.
I’m getting better at fending off Greg…
But every now and then I nod.
And it’s not just unique to me – the entire Web3 Daily team has this problem…
It’s the reason we lost weeks of free time on projects like:
-
Web(GPT)3
-
Our “super-secret-very-well-hidden game.” (Congratulations if you iT in parentheses).
-
Let ChatGPT encode itself into a paid Telegram bot. (Because why not, right?)
Today I have good news!
…and some bad news.
The bad news is: I nodded again. The good news is, we’ve found a way to make it productive and beneficial for you.
(Or at least entertaining).
This is what I’m doing/how it happened…
I found out that one of my favorite NFT photo series (Roope Rainisto’s Living in Western America) was not photoshopped, but generated by AI.
(Thank you, Raoul Pal)
I thought ‘wouldn’t it be cool if’ I…
-
I gave an AI my own original photos and had them remixed into new works (sort of like a weird AI x human collaboration).
-
Made a series of 30 photos and turned them into an NFT collection.
-
Documented every step of the process in the newsletter for everyone to see/copy.
That way I can silence Greg while anyone who reads Web3 Daily can learn the process with me.
So that’s exactly what I’m doing. Starting today. With this here article.
(And ends once everything is ready to launch on August 23).
Once the series is ready, we will release a new 1/1 NFT (and give some away here) every day for 30 days.
Full disclosure:
We’re looking for subs more than money – so the plan is to give away one 1/1 NFT per week to everyone who has subscribed to Web3 Daily and completed this form.
Or if you don’t want to leave it to chance, we make sure the rest are super affordable (~$25).
I’ll announce them as soon as they go live on Twitter (here) and Instagram (to be followed) – so if you want some first dibs, give my account a follow.
Okay, stay tuned for Part 2 tomorrow!
