The Spray Paint Test
· · ·
in hardware and paint stores people spray a bit from the can before buying it, just to see the color and how it comes out
some of those spots got covered in names, tags and layers of paint over the years. the floor around the shelf turns into graffiti nobody planned
now more stores keep the cans locked behind cases, so these spots are getting rare

cave paintings of the digital era
finds №003
gao hang was 10 when he first played counter-strike. the world inside looked real to him, and it stayed
now he paints it: low-poly bodies, mushy textures, edges too sharp for a canvas
references come from emulators and other people's gameplay recordings. a compressed game texture ends up as a 2-meter painting
the way there is 4 steps: screenshot, photoshop, canvas, then airbrush and tape
the images are simple enough that anyone recognizes them instantly. laughter comes first, then awkwardness, then something closer to nostalgia
our patron said about this: many perceive such graphics as clumsy and outdated while the modern world chases hyper-realism in metaverses, the artist finds beauty in simplicity these smeared textures may not be perfect, but they hide true sincerity and nostalgiafound by @jammm

+5Silicon Cities by Heiko Hellwig
· · ·
he explores and reveals the core of digital society. it is a society where we can no longer fully understand how information moves, which channels it takes, and which kinds of information belong where
this series captures the complexity and hidden nature of digital machines, which feels both aesthetic and frightening at the same time
their structures resemble modern megacities and bring to mind futuristic highway networks from science fiction movies

someone sold nothing for $18,300
finds №002
in may 2021 italian artist Salvatore Garau sold an invisible sculpture at auction in Milan. the buyer got a certificate and instructions: display it in a 5x5 ft empty space at home
even a vacuum has weight, he said
5 years earlier Tom Miller built an invisible structure in a public square in Gainesville, Florida. he called it Nothing
when the sale went viral, Miller hired a lawyer: "i should be credited with Nothing, and Gainesville, Florida, not Italy, is where Nothing happened first"
the letter was sent. the suit was never filed. Garau never responded
our patron said about this: two artists, thousands of miles and five years apart, both decided the most valuable thing they could build was nothing at all one made $18k off it, the other just wanted credit somehow even nothing has an ownership disputefound by @ne_david
