Artist Spotlight: Exploring the Web1 Genesis of Heaven Computer with Godmin

When I started with NFTs, it was like 2019. Ethereum wasn't even that valuable at the time, and there wasn't nearly as much hype around NFTs as there is now. But I saw the potential for it, and I just knew it would be big. I didn't think it would be [as] financially big as it is now. I didn't think people would be paying millions for Punks, but I knew there was a potential for the technology there.

I really need to stay passionate to what I'm doing, because I am in it for the long run. I truly believe the web3 ecosystem has a great potential for a change in culture and society and politics.

Maybe it's a controversial opinion, but I think, in order to call oneself a crypto artist, you must know how to actually incorporate that into art, because otherwise you're just using the medium as a way to store a link. But there is so much that can be done with the medium.

Glitch art is the art of corrupting files in order to get artistic results from the outcome, the corrupted outcome.

I don't know if it counts as code because, at the time, it was just basic HTML websites. CSS didn't even exist at the time. But yeah, when I was around 10/9, I would make websites.

That's kind of... how it's always been with my professional life as a developer. I've always been kind of doing my own thing and learning, finding ways to earn money on my own without having to be hired by a company.
