this um number six actually yeah i think i think it is fancy we're like we're serious now so if you guys don't know me i am colorful carl uh aka carl clentus i think it goes the other way around but it doesn't matter um so this is cliantus studios this is a postmortem art

collaboration with my late father teddy clients uh in this show i basically take pieces of his artwork that i've collected over the years since he passed it'll be six years in june june 25th uh but basically i take old pieces of his art that i find you know in notebooks and all kinds of

stuff that i've collected from his things when he when he passed away and i make new art posthumously here it's like a feel-good art therapy like keep the legacy of my father going kind of vibe so i hope you guys love this stuff and uh you know i'll just kind of get into

it from there but um love to have any interaction with you guys um you know if you guys like what you see or think anything you know whatever just send me messages we're following the chat and all that um let's see and just before we get it kicked off we are giving away last

week's piece of art that i created in the live stream uh there's still time to enter that competition we'll do that giveaway at the end of tonight and uh that's it here we go here's the piece for tonight so this piece right here uh i was um going through some old notebooks i cleaned up my garage and i

had this whole desk packed full of stuff that was my dad's and i went through and i found this really gnarly one this morning uh he made a september either 14th or the 19th i can't can't tell what do you guys think let's see um but uh 78 1978. i wonder when the last time someone even

looked at this thing it was like buried in a shed in my mom's house in the backyard for you know 20 years so i found it and it was in this really cool notebook here um and like i just flipped through this and find one every stream that i like and there's a there's

a couple of these different ones this isn't even the notebook i grabbed last time uh and yeah so here we go i'll start working on this and uh you know we got tonight we have alex here as always he's our show producer helps me do all the things so that i can focus on the art

lifelong great friend of mine and uh tonight we're also joined by my buddy lucas uh fresh fresh back from nftla uh which yeah i'm sure he has some great stories about and uh you know fellow nft fan as well so thanks for joining us lucas yeah thanks for having me i'm super excited i'm a admirer of the work and uh

carl and i met a little our colorful carl and i met a couple weeks before nfl nftla and was was inspired by the work and and glad to be here for the first time and i'm gonna ask a new question real quick so yeah i didn't i realize i'm in the the live stream but are you

are you sharing something like visually or oh yeah absolutely uh i'll let's go to twitch.tv so twitch.tv uh slash client studios or you can just go to clean.studio.com i got a real simple domain name for everyone clean like you clean your house dot studio uh and the live stream is rebroadcast through there

twitch webpage uh and get in the chats with us so hey paul chen paul chin made it woo you have paul chin i was just thinking about you today paul i was uh in the yard thinking about like just like that photo shoot we did years ago uh with that when we made all those t-shirts and so my

buddy paul chan who's in the chat came out and uh basically like we shot this whole shoot with all these t-shirts i designed it was really cool it's like i'm still just trying to find my path it must have been like mid-20s i think zarek was just born i don't know maybe late twenties i don't know it was fun

anyways cool cool so lucas you were just telling me about how much fun and excitement nftla was for a uh poor little iowa boy who had never been into l.a yeah yeah it was a you know it was amazing um i just i heard about it from another friend of mine who recently

launched another nft project called meta tuners it's all about cars and drivers and not race cars but kind of like tricking out your own personal car but not here to shield his uh his product but um yeah he let me know about the yeah he let me know about it and i went out there

um and was out there for the whole four days and um stayed at the jw marriott which was really like almost adjacent to the la convention center so a lot of the speakers kind of came through grabbed a drink and so it was just a great place to kind of sit and mingle and

it was it was amazing man the speakers were great it was well organized the discord was was humming oh yeah yeah it was nice i tried to stay out of discord just because i was jealous [Laughter] yeah i mean there was talks about parties going on and i was doing a little twitch interview stream uh but

now it was awesome that was really cool man it's good stuff yeah thanks yeah i was playing around with uh asking people uh to explain an nft to your grandma was one of my questions like how would you explain an nft to your grandparent or parent oh cool yeah yeah so people would uh what i was

recording that because the whole problem was i was trying to explain to my family and they were i was just getting that uh here in the headlights kind of look yeah i just tell people it's a digital collectibles like and it's basically a digital certificate of authenticity and just keep it real simple it's like digital

baseball cards or digital anything but it's like what i say is limited edition digital prints is really when i like people can wrap their head around that you know uh now obviously nfts is like so much more than that but like in the aspect that i'm doing art and that kind of stuff

that is exactly how i talk about it just to get their head in the right place about it you know yeah yeah that's i like that as well i gotta and i was planning to be doing kind of these interviews post conference kind of ongoing but i'm still learning about stream labs and snap filters and

i'm a noob man i've been in banking for 20 years and i just fell into the metaverse about two months ago well welcome to the metaverse sir there's a bunch of delightful weirdos here cool man i love it yeah so i am i would love to chat with you sometime on that little thing talk about nfts you

know my wife would love it if i'd talk to somebody else about it once in a while you know like it's just like can we not talk about nfts today same thing about my whole team at epic made they're just like yeah we love you carl maybe we maybe no nfts on this project like

oh man you have to have designated nft time slots it's like you know this is great man but like what if we turned it into an nft and they're like shut up car i'm going to kill you like yeah uh it becomes a little bit much always for sure it's tough when you see the

future it's working though yeah yeah so so i just got this piece here uh you know this is just the piece that i felt sort of inspired by today i saw like i basically just have like a box i'll show you guys um it's like i sorted all this work my wife and i and

i basically put all of it into like these are all the notebooks that are just packed full of like sketches like this and random stuff and i had this one big one so i um i just before we do a show i just flip through one of those like oh this one's cool and then and then i'll go through

his like abstract style stuff you know um and then i'll pick something from there and then i'll just kind of throw them together and i'll just doodle it's kind of just it's really expressive and i kind of i don't know what i'm doing and like i try to channel my father here because like the thing that i always

talk about with my dad in terms of his art was like he was just fearless when he was creating like he did he had no care whatsoever like the idea that you could mess it up was not even a conception like it just he was going fast and it was going to be crazy and it

was going to work or was going to be like a total dumpster fire and he didn't care you know so like boom you have something like this maybe did it in like 10 seconds i mean realistically like two minutes like you know while he's on the phone right like i would maybe didn't even remember

making this piece you know and 78 uh you know it probably wasn't on the phone maybe i don't know it was phones he was always on the phone when he when he was older but [Music] he was born in 43 so whatever that matt does he was about my age mid 30s at this point doing art and

here i am the son he didn't even know he was gonna have doing art with his art on a computer drawing on a screen streaming it on the internet turning it into an nft you can't even make this up that's crazy i like it [Music] anyways does that seem crazy to you guys or it's

just me like i i uh i don't know i'm gonna say it you're crazy it's crazy craziness hey man so like you you told me about some cool projects you were working on love to hear some of those you know shield them out a little bit talk about what you're up to in the world these

days i appreciate that yeah i'm happy to share a little bit so um story as i mentioned i've been in banking for the last 20 years and you know i was bored around christmas time my wife's a teacher so we always take like the last two weeks of the year off and the kids are out of school

and i'm still bored like just you know it's winter time i'm in iowa i'm in the midwest so it's colder and heck outside i'm sure the kids are driving me bonkers they're playing games all the time and so i told my wife i wanted to get an oculus and so long story short i got an oculus i

started playing some high-end vr games uh in particular the game was called zombium space it's a metaverse one of the many it's like roblox or uh metablox or second life or what have you okay and um i just kind of started following this inkling like nobody's in virtual reality like the masses like everybody's talking

about it and huge bets are being made on the metaverse like activision buying microsoft for 68 billion dollars wait microsoft buying activision right i'm sorry yeah you're right okay i was like holy [ __ ] it's like okay yeah no that that makes sense i was like oh my god when the biggest gaming company in

the world buys the biggest you know that would have been insane but the other way around also makes plenty of sense so that's great yeah yeah so i just kind of the like you know there's signals you know i'm reading the tea leaves and i'm like all right so i'm gonna put together a little business

that basically on boards and trains people on the metaverse and so i'm gonna in short i'll cut it short there it's being branded um at a tsunami it's kind of my tagline so um i have a little slide that i'll show and i'll say the metaverse is a positive tsunami headed towards humanity that

will progress our collective consciousness but today on the beach the skies are sunny and the children are playing but the tsunami is coming yeah okay yes it's pretty existential man i love it you gotta you gotta be in front of the wave unless you wanna be uh in order to ride it correctly let's put it like that

yeah oh yeah you definitely gotta ride it yeah yes it's gonna be a lot of fun it's gonna be a blast and you know that's that's the thing that's hard with this positive tsunami it's like tsunami's got these connotations with it but this is like a fun tsunami coming at us it's a fun

nami if you will and a beautiful one it's a tsunami of art and expression yeah i think there's gonna be so much transparency that comes out of this movement and so much um like it's not gonna fix all our problems and like obviously humans suck right like we know that like no matter how

much good we do with something like there's gonna be like that sect of people's like how much devious [ __ ] can we do with people right like how much can we scam people like so yeah we gotta kind of like take that with you know that is human nature unfortunately because of the haves and

the have-nots and who knows why um but like at the end of the day there's just like you guys said some really really good stuff coming out of this like can you like i just it's so powerful i love it i just imagine like building an art legacy right now with my dad's art that

i can will through us through a wallet and smart contracts you know and definitely for my whole entire lineage that started with my dad's art and like i'm creating nfts that weren't even a thing when he was alive from artwork that was before the internet before computers yeah all of it blows my mind so anyway

and there's so there's so much utility for somebody like you paul who um you know i i nfts this year i think are 80 billion for for uh revenue and we're in an up-and-coming industry that is going to be a major part of millions if not already millions of people's lives and to explain it to people who do not

understand it it's a very abstract thought and it's a very hard thought to explain so i've heard that from speakers of all types and walks so it's a it's a great utility bringing yeah and you know what i was talking to lucas about is that like there's no way that in the near future

all ownership isn't tracked in the blockchain of anything of significant value like you know i mean it makes sense even that like you buy an nft to like you know movies admit generate nfts and you buy that ticket you can watch it and as long as you hold the nft and maybe they only

put out a hundred thousand so then you sell your nft or like you know i mean there could be so many different ways to apply utility with things like you know but if you own your home like your your title and your deed is on an nft like and that's very transferable and very

you know so much transparency and it's so cool man it's just really really cool i've seen people like develop one of my friends is developing like an nft leasing thing right so they're they're like you know like her friend has a board ape so she want to go to a board 8 party so

she rents the board 8 from him so that she can go to the board 8 party and then it automatically returns that set date you know so like that kind of stuff is really cool that's all smart contract driven you know wow yeah um my banking experience includes mortgages and so that that space is

super you think about deeds and titles all the stuff that you put away in your lock deposit box at the bank like what's the point you know yeah yeah why why not have that in a digital space yeah it's just it's quite fascinating paul chin asks how long do you all think it's gonna take to have a

blockchain infrastructure for regular people like yeah i mean that's the the magic question right now right paul um what is a regular person right um you know i assume that's someone that doesn't understand web 3 but is that someone that doesn't understand web 2 yet or how about someone that's not that still has an aol.com

email address like so uh yeah i don't the yeah it's hard to say i feel like we're almost getting there you know with like open c being so globally known um me too you know like i think as the bigger corporations kind of adopt the same marketplaces um and let's you can't really beat around

the bush here they're all becoming the marketplaces that exist now are becoming major um well-known corporations but it's just going to take time and it's also going to take a weeding process of figuring out who's after that quick buck and who's organically trying to make something that's going to last so yeah yeah i mean yeah that's a big part of it

for sure we won't snow till we know i guess it's just going to be the innovators and the people in the space making making the smartest moves and you know pre-emptive the thing there's even like the basics like i have a good friend of mine probably my best friend i would say and

i'm like i want to gift him an nft and he's like okay like what do i need to do i'm like well you got to get a wallet and he's like whoa whoa you mean i gotta download something i'm like well yeah but you you need a wallet it's like yeah and you don't have a bank

account you don't have a bank account we can't send you money to your bank account like the concepts aren't crazy people just don't want to mess with another thing like another thing is just more than they want to do i don't want to give anybody an idea because i just came up with one it

really does need to be a one click button that sets sets your wallet up like at least separate it to what you're interested in right so like if your thing is nfts then it's an f wallet if that becomes the major currency or exchange and just boom one click f wallet setup in your browser metamask something

something like that and it'll get there it almost is there but atomic wallets work a lot like that which is pretty cool um atomic wallets are on the wax blockchain uh and it's where like upper deck has their stuff and like all the trading card companies uh so i've actually like you can just go there and

just like click and like sign up with your email address like your google account and just a couple clicks and you have a wallet and someone could send you an nft uh so i thought that that on boarding was was pretty nice actually um and that's i mean look because it's kind of cool

kind of cool what like zach is doing with that bit gift yeah like that's kind of exactly what he's touching on there that you know people who have never even owned a cryptocurrency you just literally send them an email and they have something that matures them through i don't know it's just it's a great idea

yeah so zach my buddy zach roth is like a like probably the most successful of all of our friends growing up like we have a really tight crew that we all played everquest one together for years and i grew up with the ocean lakes high school yada yada but like um he he did had a lot of success and

basically just getting people to click on things and like ended up being like the guy in in san fran or one of the guys that like is the best in the world at getting people to click on your [ __ ] and uh but anyways like he he basically you know built himself up did really

well for himself and now he just started his own company um called bit gifts which is what alex is talking about so big gifts basically is like crypto savings bonds that you can buy for your loved ones so like was an example like a you know he sent us all a message on our

little slack channel we created but basically just like hey guys started this company bit gifs i sent you all an e what's your email address and all you need is someone's email and basically he sent us all some bitcoin that's locked up for three years and it's all connected to our email address and it's in a wallet that's you

know custodial wallet obviously uh you know their their their wallet uh but you know not too different from like how coinbase or whatever but we had to do nothing other than just accept the email and it's ours so that's kind of cool yeah i i like the i actually ended up sending mine to my

my dad and so that way he would have because he doesn't have anything like he's he's interested you can't he can't deny that but there's just no way for him to um at his age to to really get involved he's nysc you know he's deeply invested in his time but you know he's always been interested and

that was kind of a moment for him so yeah i mean so my dad's about 10 years older than your dad uh or he would be um and uh 1840 was my dad was born oh 1940 really oh you're 40. dude your dad is three years older than my dad but my dad

died so your dad's still doing great but the more where i was going with this story uh because clearly like my point is a little mute it's about the uh motivation right like i promise you if your dad gets in there and is just like sees um the potential right and gets excited about

it after a few years uh that like he'll figure it out you know and i i thought it was see it's an easier transition with him because he's uh he's already it's somebody who is very he's very very well versed in new york it's stock exchange that's what he grew up on he was a manager of a

brokerage company for 40 years so like this transition from this from from that to the blockchain uh was seamless to him when you start talking about the technicalities that's weird you know he just kind of was is afraid to jump forward so yeah well as soon as he sees the money like he'll go for it

don't worry you know so i had the same like the same vein of thought with my dad for in webb too you know when we first got computers and the internet and stuff and my dad you know my parents broke up when i was five so my dad was a trip man and that's you know all of this really

exists to honor my dad's legacy but god he could never figure out computers and the internet it didn't make a whole lot of sense to him until he found out about online dating websites and then like you could meet women and then go on a date and like oh my god so it's like the mouse has to have the

right cheese at the end of the maze and then they'll figure that [ __ ] out because it's all about motivation there has to be the dangling carrot man yeah

[Music] that's hilarious i love the analogy and i love the like wait a minute in the blockchain there's women yeah exactly anything you'd like to find yeah now that's an idea man dating in the blockchain i mean yeah right but then so what does that look like how is that different like this guy swiped third swiped left 37

times like like he's a dick or like you know i don't you know or is it like this person's been on so many dates you know their profile changes color like it's red like alert you know like [Laughter] uh it's terrible that's like a it's like a black mirror episode i think you know

i think it is i think it is and hey uh carl and alex it's been really fun my project partner is pinging me now we got a meeting in four minutes but okay cool man hey thanks for stopping lucas thank you for dropping in brother really really fun chatting with you come back anytime

and uh enter our competition if you didn't you know give some of our you know you're already in our discord give some of our channels follows and stuff if you don't mind yeah yeah no i appreciate it i'm going to keep you know this i don't know why this clinton's cleanse studios the stream is

our studio stuck in my servers so it's all good thanks for pinging me and uh have a great night thanks mother take it easy cheers [Music] paul you're welcome to jump in our discord man if you want to jump in the chat and it's all right if you don't all the same yeah we kind of wanted to uh with this

stream get if anybody hasn't watched um we wanted to get back to the art a little bit because i did a um a really interesting time lapse of last one yeah i mean it came out really cool in fact i'll link that for you guys if you wanted to see it it did come out really

cool i loved it [Music] the paul is a link to our discord if you go to clean.studio and then um click the discord link in the description yeah underneath the description go underneath and that goes for anybody if you're uh if you're a friendly person and you want to come chat with us

come on i'm just i'm just doodling guys i'm not even thinking really too much about this i'm just in it having fun [Music] yeah alex that time last video i made was sick bro i was super excited about it well it was so easy for me to do and the beauty of that was just that you

were creating and i just sped the thing up and cut here and clipped it there and then it was done so i love that you quoted area in it too i love that yeah a little arrow startle that's how my dad would say it he would call me carlitos put a t house

oh man i miss him so much every day god he was so [ __ ] cool i remember like the first couple feelings i had when he died was just like one was like relieved which is terrible because he was just suffering like massively dying of cancer and i was taking care of him every day

and it was horrific i won't even get into the details but it sucked majorly sucks but like he got so like zen about it that it was it was kind of beautiful and inspiring at the same time like it was really just something i think about like he just was existential like crazy

but um yeah yeah i don't know where i was going with that what was i saying i would have picked it up but uh lots of volume in the ears but there's the link and yeah i can i can only imagine carl um i think towards the end people really reach for something certain

because things are so uncertain so the fact that he found you know zen peace and and kind of a good understanding of what life is and what it's about how it's about to change it's kind of it's kind of beautiful in the dark way no it was really beautiful man i saw him

like transition from yeah and maybe in a great way actually a physical person in pain to like this ethereal human that was about to go on the next journey you know he wasn't scared at all he was really it was beautiful man you know this the human suffering part of it was you know terrible but

the other part was just it was quite beautiful it changed me as a man changed my whole perspective on life and that's important and then when he started like talking to his dead relatives in the room like that was some next level [ __ ] i was like oh my god this is crazy

it's like my mom's here yeah she's doing great i'm like what the [ __ ] this is cool they're all with us watching now carl yeah i bet they are i believe that you know i don't know what you believe but i believe that that's about it i'm a spiritual person yeah yeah yeah me too man i'm just

seeing some [ __ ] and uh i don't think anybody's books has exactly right but there's some great wizards that we found out there

yeah just keep creating man i'm gonna i'm gonna be right back i'm gonna find your next playlist too but a couple things

see if we can um the link let's see if i can help you out oh paul there we are paul jump into the um public voice channel and then i'll drag you down to the live stream because it's live [Music] welcome paul chin jr the hey buddy paul welcome hey buddy can you uh

all right uh i need to get headphones evidently oh you're good it's not echoing anymore um but you probably had to turn the stream off so i will get headphones put myself on you all right

so i'm just kind of i did my base colors here trying to get a little more intelligent about my approach today um i just watched some sweet tutorials from creatureartteacher.com aaron blaze and it just feels like man there's some fundamental things i could just do a little better here to make the just the workflow a little nicer and

so i'm basing doing all my base colors and i'm going to set up some like really clear directional lighting probably do two lights and i'll just have some fun with it that's the plan tonight hey how do i sound now you sound illusion uh you're echoing through again

let's try that again whenever you whenever you're ready friends if ross was watching my streaming yelling at me that i'm doing this this way i have this like traditional artist method in my photoshop sometimes that doesn't make any sense

so we uh officially i'm gonna have a big announcement with epic made very soon if you're here you're on the on the on the super secret squad but uh basically we're we're taking a big step into the the webtoon space we've gotta we've got some good stuff going on over there and um

we're having some fun and got some great stories to tell some really great stories so guys stay tuned with uh all my stuff at epic made uh our website is get epic made.com g-e-t epic made e-p-i-c-m-a-d-e dot com that's a um that's my my nine to five it's a uh digital art and animation studio so we

do we do advertising assets for all sorts of brands and um you know we have a special love in our heart for anything nature and entertainment focus because those are the things i feel like i can really understand and relate to uh with the work that we do so yeah um we actually just did a piece for avatar

the last airbender actually just did a piece for avatar the last airbender actually [Music] hopefully you can get this and then uh yeah we got some other stuff but we basically we got tied in with uh nickelodeon earlier this year so we're doing some cool assets for them i unfortunately am no longer on the art

team at my company uh i it's just not like um my team is so good at what they do and it's just like i'm i'm really just like a artist in the more like abstract like flowy sense you know and i've come to even notice that even as like we built this company that

like there are different types of artists some people can't do production art on a timeline uh on you know bringing someone else's vision to life that just doesn't work for them i i struggle with that personally so like it doesn't work really well for me to be on the art team but i still needed to do art and my soul

so that's why i started this you know post-mortem collaboration with my father a little nft art memoir speaking of which we are dropping the first collection of my dad's work so about 700 originals uh we're going to drop on to on june 25th it'll be the 60th anniversary of his passing and basically long story

short on that is that i've collected his pieces i've divided them up into collections of 72 which is how old he was when he passed away uh and i've divided them into different styles so the first style we're releasing is called faces of a mad artist and they're all these crazy portraits of um

uh that my dad did you know not too distant from this and that's why i'm doing a lot of this portrait style art kind of to pay homage to his uh his art form um i'll pull it up on the website for now it's uh [Music] that goes straight to the collection but

i'll put up on here so here is the faces of a mad artist first edition um so all these little faces are in the collection and you can just kind of scroll through the page so what i'm doing here is kind of trying to immortalize my father's amazing artwork as well as like wild little stories

about them right so i went through and painstakingly you know we shot all these with a digital camera and edited them to make them the best that they they've ever looked uh restored some of them that had some damage then we created an entire like evaluation process to evaluate the rarity and the details of

each piece you know what level does it have a signature and created a value ranking system and like really did some really robust cool [ __ ] on this i hate dinner but the music is doing it for me just you got to turn that down yeah like that it's just the list i put in

another music list it's a little bit more chill just put it very low in the background and that's here yeah appreciate you sorry about that friends all right so um yeah so basically this is an nft art memoir first of its kind so far as i know i don't think anyone else has done

this yet um so early adopters in the nft space but you'll see right like every day like this one's called mayday and i have a little description uh and talk about the art a bit as an artist myself uh you know i have a bfa in fine arts and graphic design um as well as you know been a creative

entrepreneur for 16 years 17 i don't know they add up quick i had a full head of hair when i started and no gray beard um so we're get we're getting there um yeah and then you know little details about my dad uh this one's on polygon we are rebooting the whole thing on each so

this is just a sample right now uh we are relaunching the whole collection on june 25th but like so here's the physical size of the piece it's an abstract portrait you know details like that um also like so our rating systems right here what's the physical condition this one's in really good physical

condition so it's a 4.25 uh you know we have the signature ratings and all that uh and the details of how all that's broken down is also on the website um this is so much fun such a passion project uh we're going to release them at somewhere between the 50 and 150 range in usd on the ethereum blockchain

um i'm still coming up with a good metric for this but uh once the traded volume hits a certain point we're going to release the originals to anyone who owns them so if you have one of our nfts you'll be able to register it on our website um same deal with all the nfts

that we're doing here these are all digitals but uh you know you'll be able to register those on our website become part of our community we'll be you know we'll be doing air drops and trying to add as much value as possible um to our our holders of our nfts we really appreciate you guys

good things coming back to the art so hey carl hey hey there we go you fixed it sir welcome welcome welcome yeah man no nope the candy did come back all right do you still have this you have to just mute the stream like if you mute the stream you should be in good shape

because you're going to hear me talking twice if you don't mute the stream so

such a bizarre little face i got going on here

i like it yeah i'm going to pull in some other pieces of art more variety they're beautiful

it's okay i think i figured it out it sounds like you did nope the struggle is real paul the struggle is real i'm excited about the idea of catching up with you does that count for anything

[Music] colors

looks crazy already all right so let's do bright pink light something like this

today

hmm just gonna go with it

i'm scared i don't even know if this will work it worked yeah welcome to the party sir yeah thanks i uh i can't hear your music but uh just hanging out and hearing your talk is cool yeah the music uh you got to you have to suffer you can put on your own music i can send you a link

here i'm gonna send you a link so you can like sort of be on the same page won't be on the same as mine but there there it is nice sir loaded question um currently currently feel like a million bucks crushing it every day love that love to hear that yeah yeah man it's uh i

found a lot of joy and miracles in the past five days my brother yeah my brother just got married uh on saturday and um yeah and i traveled down to new orleans to celebrate it he got married in new orleans and that place has so much magic and spirit uh that it transformed me oh beautiful

yeah man i i experienced a slight ego death with just like overwhelming love uh i'm i'm fascinated already uh please continue so uh you know i very candidly you know didn't pay much attention to my brother getting married like i didn't really give it a whole lot of thought i was happy for him but you know it's just

kind of like whatever whatever whatever and uh you know i kind of pushed it on my family to kind of make arrangements so i could show up because i feel like oh i got kids i can't bring them all blah blah blah yeah yeah and so when i got there i guess i had lowered my expectations

you know too much and it wasn't fair to them but as i got in but as i got into it it was i just kept seeing beauty everywhere all these people came from all over to see my brother and his wife get married and that love like you could just feel it everywhere and

the city itself is built to party oh yeah i've heard as much at least like it's nothing but fried food and uh bars and uh weird art i love weird art obviously have you ever been to like austin or nashville man i live in virginia and i pretty much i mean i'm going to florida

this week which is nice but dude i unfortunately am very poorly traveled um so no sorry to cut in late here no welcome my name is paul by the way i don't think we've ever met i don't think so my friend my name is alex very very nice to meet you hey alex old

old friend of mine from high school times and we've recently got reconnected and we are just having fun doing this stream alex used to be a streamer himself and um and we've just been friends our whole lives man so that's awesome found a good point to reconnect and carl's kind of on he's he's got his epic

made going on and he wanted to get into projecting this this whole art project with clanty studios and i said hey let's have some fun with it so and here we go having fun as it were nice nice super good times yes indeedy next yeah so like i uh i felt like you know i've been to

nashville and austin and they were pretty cool uh new orleans has an even deeper like richer culture yeah i think even too yeah and you could really feel how uh resilient the place is uh and it's just it's just rough though like it's not a picturesque place oh sure yeah yeah i can imagine

you know um a lot of the restaurants that we at ate at i would describe as the the mother place of the birthplace of kitsch like in the south like it what is kitsch i'm not i'm not that cultured uh kitsch is defined as uh uh as an aesthetic uh that's sort of

very popular but also appeals to lowbrow taste and is often of poor quality but it it is very specific and uh you know it's a fight it's a funny word that you bring up because the thing about that word is it's my aunt's nickname is kitschy and the beauty of there is that you define

it perfectly uh it's very tacky tactile plug and k uh it really it it originates back to the word kitchen obviously somehow but it's a it's a southern thing yet a very um it's an okay thing it's not like a a bad word or anything no no it's it's it's a collective uh

genre now like it's been defined uh and when i say lowbrow i mean like working class now like it's accessible it's accessible yeah yeah yeah it is not you know it is the opposite of fine art whatever you choose to create as fine art yes it's not bougie i guess see yeah but it you know yeah it was it was

a ton of fun i uh i danced a lot i laughed a lot i uh i i hugged a lot i i i thanked my my family a lot you know beautiful sounds like yeah a beautiful time sir i tell you it gets it gets even better uh i like i said i had no

like expectations and i wasn't really planning anything so when i tell you that i ended up like babysitting my mom and my aunts and uncles you know it was it was weird right like i my brother is busy you know with him and his friends it's his day or whatever but for my side of the family that came it

was my mom my two uncles uh their wives and my aunt and her husband so we're all we're all hanging out we got an airbnb and you know like traveling with you know your your your elders uh is is like babysitting all of a sudden i mean you know you gotta remember you

know they get tired and cranky easy and uh you know you got to keep make sure they they get their snacks you know they stay out of the sun and they never know where they are you know you just kind of have to nudge them along it's fine where are we at again

yeah you're going to call all the ride shares for them because they can't you know like hail a taxi so i have to like [Laughter] we were literally just talking about like yeah that's what you were talking about bringing up you know like what is it going to take for adoption right and

it's like well you know what what part of adoption are we talking about because some of these people can't can't get an uber yet you know so yeah yeah uh exactly exactly that's why i was like if something's got to be by default like no one's going to opt in to this system

well yeah unless you're an early adopter like so right yeah the default option is this is an nft god i i feel like that starts happening it's not it's not rare in 10 years maybe quicker than that i don't know i i don't know technologically there's a lot of stuff to account for when

when uh when you think about a distributed platform but you know uh i'm in new orleans more than mine for sure yeah yeah uh you know super creative guy but then pivoted just like seemingly to me out of the blue into like hardcore programmer developer guy which is amazing i was just sidelined by that completely

because you very rarely hear a software i don't know if your software engineer or whatnot but you you very rarely hear that type open with a uh uh such a wholesome and down to earth like paul's a badass photographer and designer and do you know it does some great stuff himself on that oh y'all

y'all making me blush now i mean it's what i do is not that impressive i just read a lot i read a lot me too bro i just i just smudged the pixels around you know so they don't look stupid dude you would not believe the kind of duct tape that's in place that holds

together our modern world yeah i was gonna say society i hope you're gonna end with society and not like one computer program well technically it is kind of one computer program we call it the internet and uh it's very broken yeah that's fair uh so yeah i mean like i'm in new orleans i have no idea what

i'm doing i'm babysitting my family i'm just waiting for the wedding to happen um like it's uh a free day you know before all the craziness happens and my my family says you know we got to go to the french market uh have you ever heard of the french market no in new orleans

yeah it's it's an open-air market like a flea market it's got a big like uh like a farmer's market structure but it's not a farmers market it's people selling all kinds of things like clothing and trinkets and flea market yeah yeah flea market so it's early in the morning we we get a

lift over to this flea market i get out and i'm just hungry right i'm starving i got you yeah yeah yeah yeah we had it i heard it in the tone for sure yeah yeah we hadn't gotten anything we said we'll find something at the french market it's supposed to be you know a place of commerce sounds like

fine fine and i look and it's just stall after stall after stall of like clothing and jewelry and knickknacks and i'm like okay whatever and i look to the side of the parking lot in the big empty parking lot and there's like a trailer and people lined up in front of it i was

like oh it's probably like a food truck or something from the looks of it i bet you it sells like coffee and donuts or some something something deep fried no it sells debauchery it sold me something even better carl it sold me uh a life-changing experience okay all right i i walk up to this to

this trailer and um i'm thinking coffee and donuts and i look up wearily and it's a tin type studio i i'm confused i don't know what that means uh tin type is a photographic process from the 1860s where you cover a metal plate in photosensitive emulsions and expose an image directly onto it

so there's no slide or something no you don't make a slide you make a print you make a metal print oh [ __ ] so it goes from the sub the light travels from the sun it hits a subject it refracts into the lens the lens coalesces the light the light then activates chemicals

burn it turn it dark and it does this in an instant as a scan from top to bottom done bro and what you have why is this fascinating to us like because it's so you ever heard you ever been told you sound like alan alan watson i love alan watts and i will take that

as a high compliment thank you my friend continue because i'm wildly fascinated great great uh so so as these photons are collecting and burning and doing a physical miracle uh you what you're left with is a positive image in in uh monochrome so it's only uh shades of gray and and it's and it's fixed on a metal

plate that will last for oh god how long does a tin type last four since the 1860s so it will it will i have i have you can fix an image onto a physical object photographically real reproduction of photons and and it was amazing now here's the cool part because like the cool part isn't that hasn't even

i've even told you the cool part yet carl i'm excited the the operator the artist is a kindred spirit of mine okay so what does that mean to you uh we vibed hard on everything okay i at first i was like oh cool 10 types i'll just i'll just get a tin type right

and then she explained to me that uh she introduced a digital capture process to it now normally in a tin type right the photons come through a lens onto the plate uh in order to do that on a tin type for the uh the expo like what is it called the um the iso of a plate is very very low

okay so you have to blast it with light so either the shutter has to remain open for an extended period of time or you have to bring like the power of the sun god through that lens like through magnification and concentration yeah yeah yeah yeah so that means uh your portrait subjects have to sit still

and everything is in deep focus okay yeah yeah that makes sense yeah but if you capture it digitally then you can have a shutter speed of whatever you want and you can capture images of movement and uh of of like silliness because you you can move that's very rare for a tin type to have

like a moving image and also you're not limited to focal lengths you can now change whatever lens you want onto it because you're not trying to focus on to the size of the plate interesting as well okay so when you shoot on a plate they're typically like four by five when they get loaded into a camera and

you have to you know you basically when you switch your lenses um the image being projected by the lens has to match the size of the plate and that has physical limitations in itself so by by using a digital capture process that she basically created um all of those variables go out the window

so she takes the image digitally and then reprojects it onto the plate later in a development process that she has and developed so there's a bit of alchemy involved and now technically i understand what's happening sure where i to reproduce it it would take me a very long time to figure out all the

variables and she she's done it and has been doing it for years full time it's her and two other folks they make weird no compromise art i love it full time and that was something i've never been able to do and i fully respected her i i went nuts in front of the stand selling

it to like everybody who walked by and she turned into like the immediate evangelist yeah yeah you know how i get it like yeah i love it yeah i love cheerleading good [ __ ] when i see it right like it's beautiful that's what we should all be right you know yeah and so i i sit down

i uh i work with her i get pictures of me and my mom and i'm having such a good time because she's directing me and um she has an amazing selection process like as a photographer who ran a commercial business like everything about customer experience matters right oh without a doubt especially when you're like documenting

things for people and like yeah i mean in that industry in particular i think it just has a special space so anyway yeah she knocked it out of the park with customer experience it was like it was like working with myself weirdly enough you know what i mean yeah uh and and and

that's why i say kindred spirit it was as if i was working with myself but not like a completely proto version of myself like one that was able to trudge through the sheer like craziness i i'm at a loss for words of how hard she must have worked to do this process and to do it the way she does

and it was a great value like we money never came up and when it did i was like done [ __ ] amazing value and she was appreciative i was appreciative we had an amazing chat i i uh after i was done taking pictures with my mom i was like i want a solo

session now like i want just you and me to crank out a portrait so where are these pictures at paul let's see them take six to eight weeks man it just happened on saturday right all right if if they're half as good as i hyped them up to be it'll still blow people's minds

like i'm down for it i can't wait yeah yeah the cool thing is uh because of her digital process uh there's a bit of version control so like if i want to change things i still can before it gets printed onto the plate okay i love the like merging of analog and digital right like that's a really cool

space i love it yeah i do that a lot with my work where i'll do like a tangible piece of art and then scan it in or this kind of stuff where i take pictures of tangible water and then now they're digital and i'll make it into new art so yeah yeah i i think we are learning to

harness uh you know analog signals as well as digital signals and you know the inherent fidelity of analog is is amazing and should never be lost however the efficiency and compression levels offered by digital transmission should completely be exploited for full opportunity yeah so i i totally agree um it's just there's something about the analog stuff

that like feels a little more like you know i'm drawing on a screen right now right that's really cool um and that's kind of a hybrid it's not the same to try to do this with a mouse it's not the same to do this like on a dang thing down here that is

at the screen but it yeah i don't know man i i love pen and paper all the same too i just i don't have enough confidence in my art to do it oh well it's i just uh i always want to do it's never like good enough right so like i ended up sticking to digital so

i mean it depends right if you're if your process is reductive then pen and paper is going to be amazing if your process is additive then digital is the way to go yeah i mean digital is how i feel most comfortable doing work in it and it's the most fun to me because

i can kind of channel that that idea from my father in a way that's like i can't mess this up so just go you know and if you you can you can even back up here you know like he did it in a space where he couldn't even go backwards which is crazy you know

so oh yeah the idea of version control is central to all software design right now oh yeah and layers and the the undo button like i'll draw digitally for months weeks whatever and then i'll sit down to do a piece of like tangible art and um i'll try to like undo my line like my

little like control z will be going with my hand but i have like a pencil in my hand like it's not working it's so funny i can't tell you how many times i've done that it's stupid i've uh i've always wanted um to have a like 3d photon camera where instead of saying

canon if if everything goes according to plan then the human project will not need cannons right like we don't need aggression violence or a profession of any kind and we'll be all right according not to putin's plan at least oh geez we uh yeah yeah new new iron curtain yay um just uh yeah it's just what we needed uh

during a global pandemic is uh a massive destabilization of uh of an economic border yes that's always a good thing to have i feel like it's just it's just never ending i'm so over war and people's [ __ ] egos and just all it's just exhausting it is it is it's it's uh it

it's a fear that we all just can't get rid of like it's the fear of of not being in control and the fear of losing everything that drives people to be violent they're hurt yeah they're hurt people and what is it what are we trying to to teach like are we trying to teach like

you know hurt through more hurt or hurt just get solved with love yeah i feel like people like putin are just lost in their pain they don't even know they're in pain anymore because they've only ever lived there you know like they this is life and they can't even conceive of like a different kid

you know like it's all this madness mm-hmm yeah geopolitical issues are beyond my pay league though i don't know [ __ ] i just want to draw pretty pictures yeah i just i just want to make weird [ __ ] on the internet yeah you that nick cage bot you made forever ago was ridiculous paul you've done so

many just like weird awesome like artsy crazy [ __ ] since i've known you i just i just i'm excited to have you here man what a nice surprise yeah i you know i was just thinking about you and i went to your facebook page and sent you a message and i was

like you know what i think he streams on wednesdays so i looked and i was like ah it's on tonight like i i asked myself where is carl five minutes before you went live so i feel like i was meant to be here tonight bro so weird because i literally was like like i said i was in

the front yard not like two three hours ago and like i just had this thought about like about you and about that photo shoot we did for no reason at all just like you ever like not know how a thought got in your head like don't know what triggered it kind of deal

i remember like how clueless and just like i didn't know what i wanted to do and i had these thoughts i'm like i don't even know what i was talking about like and i was just like yeah i wanted to be high fashion and you're just like how about we do like lifestyle like

outdoorsy like yeah i was like yeah that makes more sense that was a fun that was a fun shoot man like with your clothing company yeah it totally was i don't know if you ever sold a t-shirt but um we had fun with it so we almost got like a big deal to like

export a ton of shirts to like these like high fashion chinese realtor um uh realtor what am i like not realtors uh why am i what retail stores um but it just it didn't work out but we ended up doing like 40 or 50 i think like it was just a bunch of different

designs and um it just kind of got crazy too quick and fizzled but like we were there like real close to like really doing something with it so that'd have been fun nice and then we just kind of pivoted over into all the other things we're doing and some fun man you know me i'm never not

having fun yeah man that's why that's that's why we keep chilling yeah bro we got to do another like uh board game night what's up very soon last stream we were just talking about how we were gonna try to put carl through a situation where it's just too much it's overwhelming and he says [ __ ] it somebody pulled the

emergency cord and give me the [ __ ] out of here you just always made it just find a way through it yeah that's so true a navigator i had my buddy gage on last time he runs the agency and i met him through aiga and uh he's got like a podcast and like

a thing called evolve which is all like sustainable packaging brands and stuff and i was doing some really cool stuff but like i was like yeah so i just finished up my aiga board meeting and i went for you know a five mile run today and i spent some time gaming with my boy

we you know we got a victory royale this afternoon and uh you know on uh on fortnight and just like doing all the things i got my little backyard farm and like you know and uh the list just kind of goes on and on i'm now running two companies and just but it's all fun and i love it so like what

what am i going to give up like nothing i love it all like i like how you said there's not enough time in your life just to to do the things that you want to do and you're just going to keep trying to do them no matter what you can't and you said it in the sense that

you're not going to sacrifice things that you enjoy um for the sake of doing more but you want to you want to do the things man and find the balance i only get one at bat as carl clementis the third so i'm gonna do it the best i can you know and all that and i love making all this

content and telling stories and hanging out with my friends online and like i was talking to my wife earlier today like one day my son will like see this like i have a way to get back some parents give their kids photo albums but what do you what are you going to give us eric you'll have

some of it anyways on stream like you know it's this this live stream is probably a very small part of that i'm sure like the art collections eric will be left with will make your dad's look you know not lesser just very different hey man hopefully you know it's my dream to like really make my dad into a famous

artist and uh you know kind of give him what i promised him on his deathbed that i would i would do something with amazing you know with his stuff i didn't know that was going to be nfts i don't know anything about nfts in 2016 but um most people didn't um but you know

they came along it's our launching platform for him to live vicariously through you and your work yeah and i'm immortalizing all this amazing [ __ ] he did on the blockchain like what the [ __ ] that's so cool yeah so cool yeah part of the uh yeah this is definitely part of the

allure for me to commission a portrait actually it was the ver this is the very first time i've paid someone to take my picture oh wow yeah which is a big step as a photographer so yeah i felt it even more as a photographer it was more it was a very personal choice i've learned that when

you choose to make portraiture of yourself you can be empowered to make your have yourself appear however you want right like it's your portrait um you know and we we take for granted um in how easy it is to make a selfie that we don't really you know think deeply about the art form of it yeah yeah like what

we can present and so i i leaned into it i was like you know what i'm making the tin type um it's gonna look like it's from the civil war essentially but i'm a human of the future so all i was wearing was a t-shirt and i didn't even do my hair right

but what we did was i turned my t-shirt inside out so it wouldn't have a logo on it yeah we chan we changed out the background so that uh my dark hair wouldn't get lost in the dark background and we changed up the lights and she was she changed to a low wider angle

and i i set myself up very stately and i said this is my like admiral portrait like i'm gonna look like a boss when i put this on the wall and it's gonna last forever like they're pretty durable and it will like totally outlast everything it'll be around for like 100 years easily

easily like no no no electricity uh no special mounting um you know not like acid free canvas like none of that it's just it's just it's chemicals burned by the power of the sun of my image onto [ __ ] metal forever it's pretty powerful i love it dude i love it yeah yeah so like creating family art

and family heirlooms that you know people will remember and it's super human to do and i at first i thought you know i didn't want to be egotistical and say like yeah like i'm the best because i i don't like that right but in this instance but in this instance yeah i chose to feel powerful and it was

a very cool experience um in photography are you all familiar with like uh boudoir photography yeah yeah for sure yeah did y'all ever stop thinking about like what it is that the women are buying from that photographer like what it is that they get out of that photo yeah it's the empowerment that

they're beautiful you know that's right they're sexy and that you know despite anything else in the world like their version of sexy is amazing and their lover and their partner whoever they're making these for even if it's just themselves i can appre appreciate and relish that i think it's really really beautiful empowering stuff for

sure man the beauty of um the body in a non overly sexualized way just for what it is and seen in the light of as it is that's exactly right that's exactly right and so this this this was the closest i could get to that experience of feeling empowered by my own image and i

and it it was hard to do like i had to let down some walls personally yeah you know and and it was a very transformative experience just just taking my get your getting my picture taken yeah dude i bet that was really neat um sounds exciting too wow like just a whole new art form you know especially

yeah that's so arty you know yeah yeah it was it was really really cool and you know i i was flying high on my portrait and my my brother's wedding and hanging out with my family and uh just because reality likes to remind you you're still here uh i had a just an awful experience on

the flight home um i was i was 10 15 minutes from getting off the plane i was sitting um now in my seat my mom's in the window seat the guy next to me all of a sudden leans over and says hey man if you don't like america you can go back to china

because i was criticizing america and saying that it wasn't the best to my mom in a private conversation with my mom on the plane yeah and this guy just leans over and just starts barking at me like i have triggered him oh he might have hard you might as well just put on a parachute

and jump out and say oh you're right man i just jump jump out this jump out this plane door and float on back that's like and it's like the audacity right like like you're not but if i hadn't been saying that my gripes about the country which i was born in all the same as you

like he would have said that [ __ ] to me you know what i mean exactly like my people are [ __ ] from here they're [ __ ] from scotland and greece like you know what i mean stupid yeah yeah and and uh it was hard to remain christ-like in that moment um

good for you i would have remained christ like i'd have been like yeah that's nice buddy go [ __ ] yourself but i don't know but like uh my version of christ tells it like it's like it is that a compton craze [Laughter] i hate when people you know it's like you because you're not white you can't

have opinions about [ __ ] america that aren't like we're the best like we're the best at what obesity like like i think that's the like uh you know shitty healthcare like i don't know like but like we have some great ideas the american dream is beautiful and i love it and you

know i think well it's easy for anyone to say at this point they're like there's room for improvement like and if you can't talk about that there's a problem right so like i don't know yeah totally the best in my mind the best is what is most adaptable and what is most um flowing and never the ability

to be able to change so like if you're accepting and you see things for precisely what they are and maybe a lot more um and not not put qualifiers and definitions on everything that's the best in my mind the best space to live yeah that's a i'd like that i i like defining best

as the most adaptable because through iteration we get results yeah yeah you know if we're not iterating then where are we we're if we're not iterating then we must be standing still yeah since we're on the philosophy thing like i do believe in darwinism and that things repeat repeat repeat and it's a

very deep uh that's a very it was an encompassing thing i just said darwinism but it goes it goes into a much more profound place when you really start picking it apart um and it can go as far i can it can leave the life science part of it and enter the the thought process part of it and what

is the best process to perpetuate the human species and that lives beyond the ego that lives beyond everything it's uh it's always been a hard line and you find what's healthiest for for your place in mind um and what works and what are the most healthy traits for you to do in every facet of life

ends up winning in the end yeah yeah yeah that's awesome yeah i just want to enjoy nature make art and be happy and you know that's those try to leave a legacy that like is uh worth talking about you know like right like we're all going to die so why why get lost in any of the [ __ ] like

well i start hating somebody because they have different political beliefs than you or like you know even as outlandish as they may be like just try to find a common ground try to have those conversations it's just it's all crazy if you can't find a way to relate to some to almost anybody then

keep looking because there there is a way and i wasn't speaking of you i'm speaking in general like if anyone struggles with relating just then stop looking for face value yeah there's something we've got in common with everybody all of us too we're all human beings trying to live more or less i have a good life

yeah man the good life we're we're always searching for something and uh it for me it's been my kids i think that really give me meaning in my life kids are beautiful my kids i i love them uh amazing i don't think i could raise any other children but i do love children uh in general likewise likewise

um i heard my kid on vr chat i'm like where the [ __ ] are these kids parents like who lets their kid be this kind of i thought you were watching it's funny have you all have have you ever thought about like getting into uh creating schools and like how to enable schools

i've got a couple people have been talking to doing some sort of stuff like that um in the metaverse even actually uh in terms of like clients that we've been talking about projects but no like not not officially like i plan on trying to help it out to you and stop talk to my nice old professors over

there but yeah yeah one of my uh one of the goals that i've had for a very long time was to start um and own a bank but i've flipped that and now i want to start and run schools someday i think when i get ready to become like a real entrepreneur again

it'll be in schools like little school like kids schools like daycare like tiny uh babies toddlers and elementary okay yeah yeah i mean you know you can plant a lot of good seeds at that phase of mental development and um yeah what's what's crazy is they already have the seeds man like yeah they we

teach them all the terrible [ __ ] right like yeah all they need is care and love and water and sun and they will grow man yeah just like a plant it's real hippy-dippy of you paul i love it uh we we don has gotten really into plants uh since we moved into this lard

into a larger house that has like a bunch of windows all the apartments we've ever lived in didn't have any good light since since we've now have light it's just exploded she is so good at taking care of life like it's unbelievable i can't do it i i've killed everything i've planted i grow a lot of stuff um a lot a lot of

stuff i mean you've seen my colorful carl videos i'm sure growing [ __ ] in the backyard bro my lemon tree is like insane that greenhouse i built is really kicking ass and then like the amount of plants i have like just on the back there are just stupid i like i have to trim them and like put them in

new pots all the time it's uh i love you you didn't get to see uh you didn't get to see our gardening at home club really until kind of halfway through it but we were on five we're on a 72 acre farm in the middle of virginia beach and my mom's five-acre parcel would take

across the street he had his own garden of eden over there if you will yeah and um you know i did i definitely grew some some marijuana when it became legal to do so here and of course my first lesson in gardening growing things was to respect mother nature because in virginia beach if you have a

plant that's too tall the wind will blow it over yeah so that greenhouse man that greenhouse and mother nature doesn't [ __ ] around like she doesn't have to play she's gonna [ __ ] around and find out gene it's the time scale i think that mother nature has a handle on that humans cannot

fathom like for a human we only think about like what 10 to 20 years at a time really like yeah maybe that's why it's like always better back in the day because you can only remember [ __ ] from like when you were 20 to 25 like that's about when you actually remember doing things yeah

after that it's a blur before that it's a blur after that it's a blur yeah i'm not disagreeing with you but nature nature works on a time scale uh i i don't even i don't know it how long does it take for a cotton to move like like if you're a continent and

you have awareness so just imagine you're like a whole tectonic plate and [ __ ] with like a whole bunch of mountains and stuff yeah yeah like to a continent and we're not trying to cause earthquakes here yeah you want to have a smooth trend you don't want to drop all the lovely people

in california into the ocean you know so you got to be you know moving and just chilling a little bit at a time you know yeah yeah exactly and so it's when we it's when we expand and contract time scales that we start to understand nature yeah okay i like that yeah yeah you know have you ever seen like

the nasa satellite pictures of them going through seasons and it's like literally breathing and this is like holy [ __ ] like it's just it just makes your brain go crazy because it's all so much deeper and more complicated than like we really understand yeah i got one for you that totally blew my

mind uh that i learned from neil degrasse tyson the other day on tick-tock okay wonderful human being by the way do you know you know the tides right like the the movement of the waves based on the pull of the moon yes yes yes so what actually happens is that the water is bulged constantly

on the sides from the pull of the sun and the pull of the moon the earth spins through it oh yeah that makes a lot of sense yeah yeah to us the tides come in and out to the water we [ __ ] crash into it oh yeah that that that's um i mean impossible to deny right like

that's exactly what the [ __ ] happens that's pretty gnarly yeah yeah and so um you know a lot of early com computation was used for calculating tides so that you could land your boat correctly real quick read it yeah i'm gonna grab that um sound platter yeah i'm looking for that

okay got it sorry continuously yeah yeah so i mean like if you it's so cool to think about oh oh so tides and calculations right would you all want to hear about that sure yeah absolutely yeah yeah so computation is literally just like how to do math faster and one of the problems one of the

problems that humans had was predicting tidal movements so that you know if you're gonna attack somebody you want your boat to show up you know and not get stranded or if you're traveling or you know bringing goods like we needed boats to be precise right they invented you know all kinds of things to track the movements of

the stars and moon and like eventually was able to like figure out title stuff one dude one dude went out and started measuring it with physical instruments as the tide comes up and down and then modeled it with gear so that he could input what uh the moon is doing and the machine would turn its gears

do the differential calculus and spit out where the tide would be through mechanics through mechex it was one of the earliest what we call analog computers so an analog computer does computation uh through um differential equations like it's a function which produces a wave right and we differentiate on the wave to derive

like your tangents and then you start making predictions okay they did it they did it with gears like literal like hundreds of years all coded to the frequency of the waves man that's pretty amazing like yeah i mean it's remarkable the amount of things that they were able to do most of us

can't memorize our multiplication tables which is why it's well to even think about and what's cool is that we can bring analog computers back i'm learning about how analog signals retain fidelity because um they're not chopped up into ones and zeros right you have a full range um all like there are no

uh in computers right it's only one or zero only at the end of the day you only get one and zero with an analog signal you get like kinda one kinda zero somewhere in between and uh it's that wave form that has natural resonance and that has like calculatable properties if you model those waves

then you can predict you know changes in the waves okay however the downside is that it's pretty much like a one-to-one model right i can't make a wave machine and then also have it uh add two numbers it'll only predict waves because it's built to only predict waves yeah yeah yeah the the but that's

all the physical mechanics because of how it's created but if we make a new modern analog computer it will function more like a human's um like synapses and that's where we can start to apply like machine learning to these analog models so that it's higher fidelity but more specific output which is what we want in

a machine learning model interesting so how do you think that could connect into like web 3. i'm really well we have to we've been talking abstract things which is amazing but like that's where people like you sean is you can speak abstractly but technically as well yeah so we we have to really have a

heart-to-heart about web 3 is folks yeah yeah i don't know i don't know what it is i oh and when i when i see web 3 i see uh a distributed system with an immutable uh persistent data store and um [Music] that's it and it rides over the internet yes so i'm i'm not sure

what do you think how do you see it as different in humanity versus what we've already like in what ways does it stand out um immutable uh data structures well let's just put it i'll put it like this um what what is different about web3 and what's going on with nft is in the

blockchain speaking for investment speaking for artistic expression and bringing togetherness um i don't know i guess i can do it like this i'll explain how it's different from me those points that i just made right there it is a platform that is bringing together a network of people that have been so divided these days for

whatever reasons be a politically be it financially be it class systems whatever you want to use to explain the human condition right now it's bringing it's it's breaking those barriers that we have built it's knocking the wall over and is is making allowing us to really uh understand one another for things that are deeper than

than face value things so yeah you can still get you can still get your financial winnings you can still be an investor you can also be somebody who's not afraid to express yourself and make make beautiful things you can be a highly successful artist for one of the first times in human history the

starting artist may not be that anymore um we're that's that evolution thing coming full circle again like you're fine what's healthiest and what is what humanity's proven to itself is that the only way for us to continue on in this path that we can we've gone is to let it out and to explain yourself

this to share your thoughts share your knowledge and let the world see it and in that we're we're defining success we're defining money we're defining every social stratus all of that so i think that's what it's that's what it can be used for as a tool very a profound way but a very real way

yeah i would i would say that the internet already provides you all of that um the existing internet and technically but it isn't on an 80 billion dollar um highest growth [Music] for a sector level yeah i mean yes the internet obviously has been that but this is a niche environment even within the internet

which it just says it's how fast it is yeah i i think that um as an as a niche platform it could do really well i think that as a platform it's not quite as as decentralized as most people would want to believe right and the mechanisms that are employed to transfer and retain ownership are still

ready for the big drop boys capitalistic in nature oh yeah and therefore not my favorite yeah well but it's also how you want to go about doing it right so like you could make them all free or make them all do you know all your nfts in particular like you don't have to have

the capitalistic aspect like i've been giving away all of these nfts uh that i've been doing um you know not that like the rest of it isn't capitalistic but it it it has veins you know i don't mean my hard thing with what you're saying there is like number one yes i understand the negative context

with capitalism but what exactly is where is it that you see and i'm going to draw this bomb where is it that you see capitalism as being negative yeah yeah we've uh we've accelerated exploitation of labor and bitcoin isn't gonna solve that no certainly it's not it's also not going to solve the water shortage or the

environmental problems that's right we can't fix the world but what can we fix what's tangible yeah yeah that's a good one if you cut out banks and visa you've done the world a great service and bitcoin can't do that well blockchain can do that and i like in my mind that for the first time i

think on a grand scale in human history there are communities coming together around ideas that are then manifested in tokens and coins um that have nothing to do with race or religion or skin color or culture or g location just human planet earth that's really all you need to participate uh and mostly i mean some of them i'd say a

grand majority of it is all english but like i'm sure there's plenty of cultures and meme coins and things popping up that are not in english that are not you know they're just it's really cool to me like that part of it is amazing i i i agree i think the real opportunity

is in places that don't have you know traditional finance or western finance structures yeah like if you if you if you really want to go hard on on this like go install it in places that cannot have uh financial infrastructure okay that cannot have transact transactional infrastructure yeah so places that i've seen have some really cool well i've

heard i should this fits in perfectly with that what do you mean i've heard of like like um you know in a lot of countries where women don't have the same rights as the men in their country they aren't even allowed they have to have custodial men that like you know you can't have a

bank account unless a man is custodial of your bank account right like stuff like that husband or brother uh even places in africa a lot of places in the middle east too um but yeah now these now there's women in these cultures that are able to they all have smartphones like most of the even the more underdeveloped

places still have smartphones and they can easily make us a crypto wallet and now transact without anyone else knowing and give you these goods for cryptocurrency and that's something that's happening that's creating real uh financial sovereignty for empowering people we've never had and they're people who who have something to offer for no other reason than just that and

that's the beauty of it that's where capitalism can be good it can be evil too just just like anything in life human beings can use anything for good and bad because there's one thing that you know human beings are expressly amazing at it's destroying [ __ ] and killing people um i mean we've

we've really messed up from destruction yeah it's a it's an unfortunate truth of the history of the world yeah i i don't think it was always like that though man i don't know i don't think so either um i don't think i don't think i like was like when we figured out like empire is

is when [Music] it started getting wonky yeah cause like i think i think local yeah local tribes or local like like you know communities that you could access like you know while you were just kind of walking around right now now we ride the air with our thoughts now so that's not ever going back in the bag

no kidding so i read a book and escapes me right now maybe somebody knows the name of this book but they basically talked about how like human culture begins to break down after society sizes of like larger than 100 to 200 people right so what there's what they saw happen in historical records

and like any kind of anything like when there's more than like 150 people people stop caring about these people that they don't know like you can know 200 people in a village when you all live together at least know like oh well that's so-and-so's cousin someone you really care about cares about that

person right like but after you get bigger than that it really starts to break down where there's a dis a disconnect of the actual humanity of it and that people like give less of a [ __ ] about like the suffering of somebody's somebody that they don't know anything about or know anybody that knows it you

know you just kind of keep it moving versus like actually being upset about something that happened to them you know what i mean yeah i i yeah i think that's like a primal i think that's like a primal instinctive level and a way for us to cope with things because we're not able to i mean

i i feel everything it's just my character stratus but um the world cannot cannot take on the world's pain and it's the way it's a way for us to to cope with it so in a very primal one like we can't we can't fix everything so we have to just kind of push it away

yeah 200 200 people within the same culture on the contrary are not able to push that person suffering away they're in their local sphere so yeah so you're forced to look at it deal with it and care because it's your house your home there is no escaping that it's your life yeah you know so

it's just interesting who knows what the answers are friends oh of a mad artist over here uh paul how yeah you lost your dad around the same time as i did you know i know we bonded over that for a little while and um it was nice you know i i i thought it was nice

i don't know how you feel somewhere but yeah man losing losing your debts really rough like as much as it's like this is how it's supposed to go it's still [ __ ] sucks yeah i've uh i've you know i've had to deal with the the grief and the anger and the all the negative stuff and i think now

i'm starting to emerge after i talked to my brother about it just recently and he he's really holding on to a lot of the positive stuff and let go a lot of the negative stuff yeah i'm still getting there because i i don't know i it's hard right it's hard to let go of

all the negative things about someone yeah you have to work at it right like you have to accept everyone for who they are as a human and know that like there's no way you could actually put yourself in their shoes and you just never know you know what what was going on in their head you know

exactly i used to be mad at my dad a lot because he didn't he didn't do all the stuff that he should have done to take care of himself when he got cancer like he didn't do all the things you know unless it's like but would that have even mattered like he probably you know he may have still

died anyways and like he got to do he had to be himself that's something that a lot of people can't say yeah he lived and died on his own terms and that's a powerful thing but but yeah i mean obviously that's not what i don't think that's what paul was referencing in his

situation but just at the end of the day like you know he grew up and lived an entirely different life than you did for certain so you know it's really difficult to compare apples to oranges as it were yeah i'm uh i'm i'm now more thinking less about like why did he do this why didn't he do that

and then instead like he said just learning to accept it like this is who he was and i'm going to have faith that he tried his best and i know that he loved me and that is all anyone could really ask for right like just he had unconditional love for me yeah you know

and everything else should be fine right like like you have unconditional love from a family member or a another human being and that that should be a beautiful thing right yeah right yeah exactly you know anything beyond that is a gift exactly exactly yeah everybody does the best they can you know i mean you're a dad now right like

you know and you have been for a while and you know like i i know at least when i go to bed some days like man like i wasn't the best dad i could be today and i need to step my game up you know and like i can't like shortchange my kid and like

i'm sure we you know every good parent has those thoughts in your head at some point like like if you don't think that like you could be a better parent like that's a that's a red flag you know like right because i think part of it is always questioning like are you doing

enough are you good enough are you are you giving your kid enough like you know are you failing them in the least number of ways possible that keeps it keeps yourself pushing yourself yeah but don't be too you can't everyone can't be too unrealistic you have to keep a sense of realism what you're

actually able to accomplish it's how you reach this satisfactory the great balancing act of life i i tell you what carl when when when you parent i bet you you actually treat your kid like a human being and it's such a novel concept i am we have this non-dictator role that we really committed to early on

of like i'm gonna show you respect and you're gonna show me respect and we're gonna we're gonna do this together and know that i'm always operating uh from a place of trying to make sure that you're gonna make it in this society and that you're gonna be the best version of yourself that i can make you be and that

you're happy right like i always tell them like i want you to be a good person i want you to be happy and all the rest of his [ __ ] you know like like like and that's basically what it boils down to you know and part of being happy is being healthy and part of being

happy is you know having fulfillment and understanding yourself and having introspection and like you know so it gets we get into the weeds with it you know when we get into more detail but that's the higher message it seems to have worked you know quite well for us so you know we'll see who knows

we'll see the the proof will be in the pudding in another 15 years right like right internet we shall see said the blind man so alex are we um are we almost at the giveaway phase like we uh we are coming up on it um it closes in 10 minutes we don't we have two or three viewers not

very many this stream so um i haven't really talked about it if you are out there in the chat now is your time to shine throw somebody a five code entry um if you don't if you're curious it's there's still time to enter click the art image in the tags underneath the stream

let's see nft giveaway with the dates on it and click that and get in on it yep and uh you know just to update anybody like every every week we um try to give away something we're working on doing some new poep nfts uh so that people can kind of collapse are like proof of participation it's

kind of like been there done that got the t-shirt it's been there saw that got the poep you know um that that's kind of what those are about and uh we're going to start offering those soon we're still in the application process of that yes and for those that are interested in po-app and us getting this the biggest

thing to allow us to do that is getting building our social community ups proving that we have involved people in it so joining this social metrics is a great place to help us and in turn will help you yeah yeah what do you think about this little piece here paul he disconnected internet

yep he disconnected from the internet probably okay oh yeah he said he got a drop his discord restarted cool all right well i'm gonna be wrapping this piece up i'm not really loving this one probably gonna do some more with it um offline i don't like to stream too late because i have to be like a functional adult

tomorrow so yeah well i can uh just as always if anybody's listening i will just like we did last time when we draw this after i will do it live so you know there's no rigging the system and now's your chance speak it up in chat if you want five free entries and uh just keep a look out for on our

twitter and that's where i'll be posting uh the updates for that i'm gonna finish that rihanna piece of it i've had it on the to-do list for a while now so i think that you know me and carl talked about this um we are going to be doing giveaways often uh giveaways being the art that you see him

create um and as the community grows and as the interaction grows the levels of the giveaways will grow so we've talked about maybe hitting some milestones um you know we we have enough viewers or enough engagement we will we will launch a giveaway but we have to hit this those milestones so just keep keep chugging along keep

tuning in every week and better better stuff will come these are going to be ethereum nfts so you know they they do have intrinsic value just in the minting and gas fees like these are the real deal these are long-term collectibles i'm going to be making art for a long time like i really

fallen back in love with this and i love this live streaming and it's just fun like having all my friends show up and shoot the [ __ ] with me and talk and like this is all just exciting so and even if i don't know you and you feel like you want to contribute

to the conversation has some things to say about your art and creativity and web 3 and you know i mean i talk a lot about you know nature and growing food in my uh my my little web series on youtube if you haven't checked that out and uh so i'm happy to have those chats

with anybody um it's a lot of fun stuff yeah we are in a new judgment zone you can say just about anything [Music] that's not racist or you know evil but yeah just speak your mind [Music]

it's coming together here i'm liking the the uh bordering ordering yeah the the the black lines is here for example yeah yeah it's all coming together a bit

sir i try to like keep focusing on like not getting stuck in the weeds yeah you know i uh paul paul is a definite big thinker and yeah it seems cool man having very energy expending people and create creating can be a little bit difficult so like you know you can see your head

trying to work very hard and trying to create art yeah yeah it's fine [Music] got no expectations here we're just doing the thing you know yeah having fun but yeah i know it was good we had jacob on him paul wasn't too nice to pray as many personalities as possible just showing showing the display you know i

didn't have anybody planned for tonight so it was kind of cool that like i had some people show up that were like for sure colorful car i know that guy [Music] how many uh what was our peak viewership today oh we went when we went live we had like six or seven and

nice we just plummeted

it's retaining people after that 30 minute mark that's always difficult [Music] yeah the art wasn't moving super yeah we were kind of thought like be profound [Music] still the good stuff [Music]

[Music] do you relate to this whole new copyright crap that i was talking about like i'm not a fan of any any of the playlists from tonight i can't believe they dmcad that uh that that what's the name of that one we always listen to dude i don't even know what dmca means

that's right so what does that mean it just means that they muted any of any of it that was used on in our streams uh is not you don't have volume whatever stupid yeah i i mean music that's royalty free is what i'm getting at is hard because a lot of the stuff that is royalty free is terrible

yeah i saw some paid subscription we might have to get that's um yeah there's that option too but even that's like some of that stuff's not i don't know that's a that's something i'll have to look into and work on yeah just be what it is man we're on this journey now we are live

streaming making art it's crazy it's fun though i'm enjoying it i don't know why i always put these like weird little things under the eyes i don't know what to do with them you know like it's yeah um yeah i did what you meant i think that and i'm not an artist by any means but i

think that he probably did that towards the end of his painting or towards the end of that piece rather like he would probably have them defined and then right as he was finishing things you'd add complexity there because it is too hard to balance those a lot there's like streaks that he would

do otherwise i don't know the crazy old man this crazy art like i used to draw when i was a kid i would draw people without hands or feet and they took me like it was like a disturbing thing to my parents they took me like an heart psychologist what's wrong with him

like every feet are harder it was like a deeper answer to it being like they said well people who don't draw hands and feet feel helpless like they can't they can't do anything like all this crap and then they took me to some other guy and he was like well if you've looked at the

human body recently your hands and feet are really kind of hard to draw maybe you just said want to draw it i was like yeah that guy had it right you can't read too deep deeply yeah like don't don't get complicated here like but maybe it was a little bit of both you know

who knows i don't know nothing i just work here yeah that's she said

i don't even know what i'm doing with this this weird collar of a shirt or whatever the [ __ ] it looks like shakespearean almost right yeah it does look it's like a blousey like i don't know fascinating

maybe uh you know you know where i think the problem in leia's maybe there should have been contrast with now i guess it's kind of it's kind of like the antithesis of what your dad did though because his background's always kind of blended into the image i was gonna see contrast in the background yeah i was trying to make

that although

yeah i think i should just invert the whole thing let's see what that looks like this is just just for shots you know yeah there you go it's all inverted no not the face the background [Music] that layer the back layer it doesn't suck yeah it's like zom project zombie project zomboid that game's pretty fun

bro i've been having yeah i definitely would like to play some time

hang on a second if we can if we can be adaptive to adaptive respectfully if you will allow us to do that yeah we can do whatever the [ __ ] we want that's dead this is my [ __ ] now i'm just saying like i i times changed man i think that your dad would want it

to change that way no he absolutely embraced that like he loved it when i took his [ __ ] and made it something new and something crazy like this right here now we've gone to something that's that draw that catch image that's gonna pop right yeah we're getting there yeah now dad dad was like a huge fan of

me doing whatever i wanted um i love that manipulating colors and all that i'm not worried about that at all now like when we release his art it's going to be his art right like right right i'm i'm i'm doing when i like digitize those i'm making them like respectfully as much as i would like um

like i'm not saying i'm not like playing with them and like playing with the levels and making them look good and whatever like really thinking about the few times we got to do that together like what he would want me to do to his art in the digital space so like you guys hit on the whole children

thing and you know i think that's what every father might want is that a piece of them lives on in their child and that their kid gets to put their spin of what their father or mother and their world yeah yeah that's exactly what i'm doing here with my dad's stuff and he would love this and you know he's

sent me messages through you know people that he loved that know me that have like come to me and like said yo your dad came to me my dreams almost told me like he's you know and i believe all that stuff um and it it gives me a sense of peace um and i don't know if it's [ __ ] or not

but it feels right no it's not [ __ ] that's right that's how's that well [ __ ] to some people that's okay they have never experienced something like that right like until you have a deep meaningful connection on the other side and you're like open to that like i don't i don't know if you do experience

you don't even have to like you don't even have to believe all the specifics or hard lines or books of scripture in that you literally can just see it as somebody had an experience and believe it it's nothing else than that so it is it's not bolstered it's a real thing that somebody may have been

through um in a night of sleep but you don't have to uh no one has to judge somebody for what they see yeah

that's a good color yeah we just needed something to make this work a little more

ah man i was like an hour and a half into it and i'm not gonna offend you i hope but i was wondering i was like man i don't know i don't i was just feeling uncertain and now i'm starting to really like it yeah just gonna keep [ __ ] with it

yeah i've always been a believer and then oh it just takes a little time yeah i'm sure there was going to be a few nights where i just throw a [ __ ] turd out there i'm doing live art here bro like i don't know with a couple of dumps i've taken before

smoke been smelling your [ __ ] yeah yeah it's not even a plan here like i'm just winging it like the fact that this doesn't suck every time it's still amazing me like you got like a nice um bluing going on there like uh doing like guns and things yeah i know it's cool

[Music] is that background pixelated oh what's it like low res yeah yeah it's probably a bit low res sir you could probably do like a little blur right i don't know i'm sorry and then you focus on that i just don't want to distract from the one you're having um [Music]

blur plus contrast

[Music]

orange now he looks like he's in a place he sees is very uncomfortable he's the darker guy who's like the speaking point is [Music] we need to fix this [ __ ] blouse bro the blouse you call it a uh snuggie

[Music] yeah i don't know what i'm doing with that it's kind of a hot mess no i see a lot of potential keep it going keep it going to bed soon [Music]

[Music] i can't we had two guests tonight i was like expecting to have no guess yeah at one point i was expecting to do this entirely by myself uh i took it i think it was like six o'clock or so so i'll see you at nine i'll take three hour nap and i was like

oh [ __ ] it's 9 30. okay ain't ain't nothing man i guess that's why you said you thought you were about to do this by yourself yeah for sure oh like this actually i got a thought here now this like actually comes in front of his face here he's like tucked into his chin this like

wraps okay yeah yeah this was like confusing me

what are you still doing up huh he doesn't have school tomorrow nice what's up

yeah i don't know yeah you said you wanted to work on this more too yeah yeah for sure i hate this so it needs to work we won't i won't um we won't start the gleam so this will be like a two weaker you know what i'm saying we can run this one until you polish it very well and um

i love it let's see what i can do with this here

[Music] i already like it way back

it's like it's got so much more movement and [ __ ] you know yeah i like it

it's like the rainbow road for mario kart i'm not i'm not so much digging the red purple pink spectrum because it works it's just so much of it ah yeah i'll play this some more there's something in here oh that's kind of fun

use experimentation always experimenting mad scientist i'm not even that angry

oh i like that yeah there's a like a five second delay from what you're seeing from what i'm seeing there yeah all right i'm gonna start right here when i used to design on my old little laptop i had from design school like like the battery died and i used to keep it plugged in so i had to pull the

pattern to actually pull the battery out or wouldn't even turn on it was like sitting on my lap but i remember a couple of times i like like scooted and like pulled the thing out and just cut off i used to lose all my work all the time i spent like four or five hours on that

last uh past broadcast yeah the exporting part was like it wanted it wanted to take an hour and a half for me to export it come to find out i didn't have my gpu accelerator on for the exporting and it was crashing my computer and i didn't i hadn't saved it so i lost all

of the work the first run i really do the whole [ __ ] thing yeah learn that the hard work turned out excellent sir so that is good it became better the second round today which was good which is good that always happens right like because you you already kind of had the idea half

baked and then you really get in there and like make it way better the second time so exactly cool

she's just not a pink and purple fan huh is that is that what you're saying no i like it it was just it's just so much of it and now we're now we've got blues and greens yeah that's colorful that's your name let's put some let's put some i don't know i got to do something like

the hair is like a mess it's fine [ __ ] it having fun my music died under high music

any comments anywhere anybody interested in anything we've had people come in and out of the chat rooms that says welcome to the chat room is that someone every time someone comes do you know

ah

internet what

i think i lost alex uh yeah i did cool well i could see the chat if anybody uh has any thoughts but i'm just drawing here trying to add in some more just keep punching it up trying to figure out what makes sense here

[Music] some weird [ __ ] i'm going here

just kind of tuning in this is a collaboration i'm doing with my father posthumously i take pieces of his work and make new work for them uh you know you work with them every month so use pieces of his like abstract paintings in the background and then you know i use line art sketches in the foreground and

make these kind of crazy faces that you love to draw come to life and you know something new with them every every week so it is a lot of fun and uh it's been exciting to do love to hear you guys thoughts and all that as you uh see me make these things

so this logo was derived from my dad's signature which i have tattooed on my wrist here there it is anyways i um scanned it in and then you know made it a little more legible but i just thought that was fun a little tribute i told him when he died i was going to sign his

masterpiece so i had him sign a little piece of paper with with his name and my birthday and i did only tattoo i've ever got i might get another one or two eventually
