After 18 months of stealth, I can finally talk about @arcade_ai, a game changing new platform that lets you turn your thoughts into REAL THINGS (starting with custom jewelry). Here’s how it works:

Love this. Web3 social impact.

1/ Great things have small beginnings Announcing the Deca Eternal Collection of Art (DECA). An experiment that becomes an institution The Eternal Collection acquires art, never to sell. Supports artists. And curated by you, the community. Together, we choose art & make history



We welcome Ryan Davis to the @offlineventures team. He brings vast experience in scaling venture funds. He cares about the world and shares our values. We could not be more excited to be building together. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Hot take: What if egg freezing was free... if you donated half to families in need? 🥚 Proud that @offlineventures is backing @cofertility to make this a viable future: fastcompany.com/90795078/this-…


We have lost a towering giant. The force of his creative genius transcends fashion into art, design, culture, and technology. His influence and impact is incalculable.

It’s the intersection of the online and the Offline, and culture that gets our hearts pounding.

As a hardcore collector of music, art, and niche cultural ephemera my entire life it's been a continual point of frustration with how gatekept and opaque the industry is. Then one day @tmcleod3 came to our office and asked, "What if the Smithsonian was owned by the internet?"



The US Olympic & Paralympic Hall of Fame Induction gala was a star studded night. Michael Phelps, Lindsey Vonn, Brian Boitano, Bob Beamon, Michelle Kwan, Natalie Coughlin. It is a privilege to support Team USA past and present.

Words can't describe the incredible experience that I had yesterday in Palo Alto with @jameshiga and @purphat as we walked the beautiful Apple campus. Thanks for the magical experience! Today I'm teaching students from @SCodeAcademy about generative art. @artblocks_io #NFTs
