Matt DesLauriers

Renowned generative artist Matt Deslauriers, perhaps best known for <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://opensea.io/collection/meridian-by-matt-deslauriers" data-token-index="1" tabindex="0"><code>Meridians</code></a> on Art Blocks, will soon release <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://avantarte.com/products/matt-deslauriers-sierra" data-token-index="3" tabindex="0"><code>Sierra</code></a>, a digital + physical piece on Avant Arte.Sierra, curated from one of the artist’s algorithms, features what looks like a mountain drenched in greens and blues rising in a ruby <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpenglow" data-token-index="7" tabindex="0"><code>alpenglow</code></a> (scientific definition: when the sunset/sunrise makes a mountain look really cool).It’s one of the most eyepopping Avant Arte prints we’ve seen so far, partially owed to the fact that it forced the platform to <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://twitter.com/avant_arte/status/1753116218721276047" data-token-index="9" tabindex="0"><code>rethink</code></a> their process, resulting in the inclusion of 4 separate NFTs instead of the usual single one included in most of their previous collaborations.&nbsp;Suffice to say, it passes the wall test.

Frank is the first art project dropping on <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://twitter.com/EtcherBTC" data-token-index="2" tabindex="0"><code>Etcher</code></a>, a Bitcoin Ordinals platform backed by web3 venture studio <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://twitter.com/thesis_co" data-token-index="4" tabindex="0"><code>Thesis</code></a>, which I originally covered <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://mintorskip.beehiiv.com/p/ive-accused-something" data-token-index="6" tabindex="0"><code>here</code></a> for their platform pass NFT.While neither the platform nor that pass have launched yet, the team have begun lightly teasing Frank, seemingly centered on an interactive story.Nothing has been confirmed, but it looks quite similar to the genesis collection displayed on the Etcher site, <a class="notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover" style="color:inherit;cursor:pointer;text-decoration:inherit;" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://etcher.xyz/thehalvening" data-token-index="10" tabindex="0"><code>The Halvening</code></a>, which if my suspicions are true, would mean a 70-supply collection is in the cards.Will keep you posted <span style="font-family:&quot;Apple Color Emoji&quot;,&quot;Segoe UI Emoji&quot;,NotoColorEmoji,&quot;Noto Color Emoji&quot;,&quot;Segoe UI Symbol&quot;,&quot;Android Emoji&quot;,EmojiSymbols;font-size:1em;">🔎
