there's this u this beautiful thing where e artists, at least in the en of t space, they tend to feel like if there's something that is has come before them that they respect. There is oftentimes an integration into a new peace whet that is ite tip of the hat to the ee of that artist, right? Like grimblin did it with oddities. He put chromy's socks on, like little chromy squiggle ocx on, and an a little, tiny, little cromy squiggle worm like that, he's about to be stepped on, right? By bone f litle characters. And that was just, like, out of his brain. N that was amazing, right? And like, you know, on with all the jas on on ontess, like j john, you know, the artist that does the frames, right? Like this. So, so, ah, the number f of john remixes that i've seen, it has to be in the hundreds at this point, where if you're almost, if you're launching on tes, like you in yourleg artist, you have to do at some point a framed like john, like tip of the hat to, like, pay your respects to the godfather or something of tesa's like the thtes world, right? And that's happening a lot. So it's, it's, it's, but it's, it's also free marketing for those original projects, right? So it's really interesting think about how those little meam attributes, like how they they thy escape their own projects and make themselves known in these other universes. It's

totally fascinating, i think. Em, there's definitely a thestis around collectability, around what you're describing capan um. And if you can identify in generative art, if you can identify it in greater collectables, if you can identify in photography or in fashion, or whatever vertical it is that you want to specialize in. Am, i mean, there isan unquestionable collectability around those originators of those styles. Am, that continue to get re over and over and over again. Because as we draw these lines back in time, and as more literature and as more voices come into space, and we move from two million people interacting with nfts on open sea to 50 million to a hundred million, everyone will understand that the line points back to some of these earliest projects by which those meams are being propagated. So it's, it's very interesting to think about, i

say, all all these lines though, all these lines, i think, you know, we think about a lot about historical contexts, cause we value that quite a bit. And if you draw o the through lines, so like, you go really up the stack a lot of things. Roads lead to crypto punks. They lead to auto glifs. On the genite mart side, that's kind of the the cave man drawings on the wall. And you may be sand the digil artside, it goes back to x copy. And so like those of the three perhaps overarching, like inception points for the different kind of categories and down stream remixes and verticals and collections and such that have popped up tolegr

ii'm curious, you know, when you tod, when you think about gener tevard and these other, you know, genres that are appearing.
