To my audience, by all means… I am not a super techie person. My background is Studio Art-Painting. Last fall, the web design bug bit me. Now here I am, learning about Flex box and Grid all CSS layout options.
I am thankful for support of some awesome classmates, tutors and me for innovating ways to practice Flexbox.
Last week. I decided I needed to practice Flexbox Froggy
https://flexboxfroggy.com/. I started to practice, but I could not get anywhere. Who has flex box memorized anyway? If you do pat yourself on the back. In the moment of despair and disappointment. I decided to find flexbox cheat sheet— Flexbox Froggy back to life for me. This cheat sheet for flexbox renewed my interest- https://flexbox.malven.co/ … I put the two windows together nice and cozy and viola! Level 11 in no time.
Learning about Microsites and developing a theme with a call to action was my next triumph. Albeit, my initial design is not super polished, yet at least I was able to use that design to make a mock gallery opening flyer for my artwork. As the saying goes- kill two birds with one stone.
Lastly , tonight I was very fortunate to be apart a presentation titled- Art,Communities and Currency by Irubiel Moreno. Moreno’s macro thesis was decentralized currency, and the importance of having portable,broker free access to crypt o currency. This naturally evolved into a small discussion of NFT ,and the people who have became successful like Benyamin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUpS0tOZAlI 12 year old owner of Weird Whales who use generative art for his project.
In addition to this information I learned Solidity is the program of blockchain. Also what to look for if an artist is going to do a NFT project with a developer. For one look for transparency do they have a tweeter or other social media that speaks to their longevity and authenticity? Lastly do your research.
Mr. Moreno will do a part two of this presentation next week. You can sign up via Sol Collective IG, give them a follow and keep up with their other events too!
