About this episode

Jæn discusses the current state of the crypto art market and the importance of artistic integrity.

This episode features an insightful conversation with crypto artist Jæn, who shares his unique perspective on navigating the current "winter" in the crypto art market. Jænn argues that the NFT space is the only place where artists can truly explore and combine diverse mediums like animation, music, and interactivity without commercial constraints. He discusses why some artists leave (they lack a long-term artistic grounding) and why others remain (seeing the downturn as a season). Jæn offers his philosophy on art as an intimate, almost spiritual practice, emphasizing the importance of tuning out noise and prioritizing artistic integrity over market trends like scarcity and price. Learn why the Cult of Crypto Art serves as a vital digital village for artists who are committed to the long-term future of creation. Watch the video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/bkSLLctb-zE
