Proof of Work - Genesis , animated video, 810 x 1980. Conceived in 2018, minted in 2021. Artwork was originally tokenized as ERC-20 on R.A.R.E. ART LABS on September 26, 2018. The edition of 10 went unsold for over a year. I decided to burn all unsold tokens on October 30, 2019 when ERC-721 became the technology standard for NFT tokens. It is now being offered as a 1/1 in the original size to honor the genesis animated artwork that draws parallels and forms fractals between computers mining for 'proof of work' cryptocurrency and gold miners panning for gold in the rivers of the California gold rush where I grew up. The present work features in “Bonhams & SuperRare: CryptOGs, The Pioneers of NFT Art, June 21st-30th 2021”, Lot 1” and can be found at the following link: https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/27285/lot/1/
