Redlion Artdrops

They all went in search of the promised land, the WAGMI. The stories spread like wildfire. There were beings from all corners of the universe rushing to fertilize their dreams. The sights were beautiful to behold and strange when retold. A grand epic was only beginning to take shape...

The Birth of the Promised WAGMI

Redlion Artdrop

In the darkest nights, where shadows creep,
 Candles of hope, their vigil keep.
 Flickering softly, they light our way, 
 Guiding us towards a brighter day.

Early Impacter Passport

First Edition Passport L1

Welcome to the First Edition of the QT passport, the regenerative traveler\"s roadmap.

You\"ll be making a commitment to travel with intent as you claim your QT Passport, joining our mission to redefine travel and regenerate the world. Signing our Regenerative Traveler\"s Pledge, within the QT Passport, is the ultimate statement.

The Regenerative Traveler\"s Pledge

Regenerative tourism is built on a series of principles that work to leave a place better off than found. This pledge is my acknowledgment that regeneration is not a should but a must in the realm of travel. My signature cements that my efforts do not stop at sustainability. Instead, signing this pledge seals my commitment to seven actions that empower people and the planet to flourish. I pledge to:

1. Act with respect

My actions will always be underpinned by a deep respect for others. I acknowledge that the places I am traveling to are homes to others, which deserve to be respected. I commit to consistently treating communities and the environment with the same care that I extend to my own home.

2. Vote with my wallet

I will choose to empower others through my spending choices. I will support local businesses at every given opportunity be it choosing local restaurants, clothing or crafts. This means, I will seek out alternatives to large chains that feed into tourism leakage, whereby money leaves a countrys economy. 


3. Educate myself

I understand that a large part of regenerative tourism is rooted in education. I will take the time to better understand how my presence impacts a place and its people, and I will take active steps towards understanding a destination. This includes learning about a destinations culture, values and customs.

4. Experience local culture

In an effort to support the endurance and regeneration of living cultural heritage, I will engage with local culture in the destinations I encounter. I will seek out cultural experiences that are the most authentic representations of traditions, and engage with true cultural custodians.

5. Act intentionally

I recognize that traveling is a collaborative act. Even if I travel alone, I am aware that I will cross paths with travelers or locals, and move through different environments. Throughout every journey, I commit to being reflexive about my actions and to act collaboratively.

6. Hold myself accountable

I will always take accountability for my actions while traveling. This includes holding my hands up when I get something wrong and endeavoring to do better. I will approach each opportunity as a chance to learn about regenerative principles, and seek out ways to improve ecosystems.

7. Create a net-positive impact

I recognize that traveling leaves a footprint and that steps need to be taken to off-set my actions. Going beyond mitigating the harm of my travel, I will actively make choices that help a place and its people flourish. This includes taking the time to do my research and understanding what a net-positive impact looks like in any given destination.

This pledge marks my commitment to regenerative travel. Guided by the seven principles, I will set the benchmark for traveling with respect and intentionality to positively impact the world around me.

Eulogy of Giants

"Eulogy of Giants" captures the reverence we offer to those exceptional beings whose immense presence in our lives shapes the very essence of our world. It is a celebration of their remarkable journey, a testament to their monumental impact, and a reminder that giants may fall, but their profound influence forever casts a long and inspiring shadow.

'Eulogy of Giants' captures the reverence we offer to those exceptional beings whose immense presence in our lives shapes the very essence of our world. It is a celebration of their remarkable journey, a testament to their monumental impact, and a reminder that giants may fall, but their profound influence forever casts a long and inspiring shadow.

In this collection, Carlos Marcial presents his first AI-generated artwork, each carrying a powerful message. The project is an official collaboration with Causality, whereby True Phygital NFTs powered by the platform can be physically autographed by Carlos Marcial in person at Non Fungible Conference 2023. For more information, see here: https://posttruth.art | https://causality.xyz

Artist in a Post-Truth World

Carlos Marcial"s artwork marries the real and hyperreal, alluding to Jean Baudrillard"s theories of simulacrum and hyperreality. Using AI, he conducts a dialogue with a digital version of Jean-Michel Basquiat, presenting an imitation with no original.

This artwork, modeled on an 80s photograph, crafts a non-existent moment, intertwining reality and representation. Marcial highlights his solitary role in creating this illusion, merging AI and human creativity in a post-truth era that redefines art.

Concisely, this piece urges us to reassess our perceptions and acknowledge the role of AI in reimagining art.

Technology: this collection is composed of True Phygital NFTs powered by Causality, a middleware for phygital connections. The NFTs can be autographed in real life, only by the artist, using a physical item he carries on his person. For more information, see: https://causality.xyz/

JPGfam #177: Rutger van der Tas

As you grow, the structures of what you thought were valuable completely fade away. In the solitude of an almost romanticized cry, where thoughts echo from within a body that sustains itself, a will is reborn from the darkness that gives shape to what is experienced. The road construction is now solid. With foundations strengthened by existence itself. The toughness in decision making, the focus on a fixed point and the energy redirected to where it should go, naturally. The gaze of others no longer hurts, nor is it even interesting. Honesty in the movements, in the dance you do every day, in the speech, in the words you outline. The calm, the temperance, the dark and the light. Today you embrace everything.

Nothing ever made sense
