My agenda and mission in web 3 have been the same since I entered in 2021. To make art for art sake that is built upon a lifetime of toil, study, and experience hopefully impacts the "consumer" of said art, sustains me, and proves to others that a creative life is possible.My music and art have sold 100+ eth on these principles alone, and every single sale, grant, experience, donation, sustains me and goes right back into my creations of which take my full time and attention -  this is my only job.Simply put - this money will go to various needs when it comes to hardware/software as it relates to music, 3d, animating etc. but most importantly it will help fund my basic expenses as I continue to work 40-80 hours a week on art fulltime. One project in particular that I've been trying to get off the ground for 2+ years is related to the physics of the Chaldni plate - a famous experiment where grains of sand are vibrated at certain frequencies to create gorgeous fractal patterns - and with my background as musician, I have been trying to marry audio and visual for this project using this concept, but have not been able to execute it at a level I think is above and beyond. This funding will make that possible.I deeply appreciate your consideration.
