past life (on shape)

Enjoy this film photograph taken by lollerskates.eth / shawn05842964.eth. An all-time favorite photo of mine. Part 2 of my "past life" series, chain-agnostic and without a rigid format in terms of editions, platform, pricing, etc., except these will always be more affordable than my 1/1 series "this current life", which is currently on Foundation.

three distinct series

The intention for my film photography is to only ever have 3 main series, from now until the end of my days: this current life - 1/1 series on L1 ETH. These present-day photos (starting late 2023) are forming a loose, fictional, ongoing narrative in titles and/or descriptions. The current quantity in this series is very small because in terms of quality I'm extremely selective of which shots are minted to this series. Most of the photos minted here are very minimally edited or completely unedited; mostly simple cropping and curves. While I do process and scan the negatives myself, I do not make my own prints (at the moment). past life - editions of images from the past. Loose in format, pricing, blockchain, number of editions, etc., though they will always have much lower pricing than my 1/1s, of course. And, as there is a finite number of pictures that I took pre-2024, there will be a finite number of past life mints. Mints will go live when there is some demand or when the mood hits. parallel life - from 2024 onward. These will be editions in the same spirit of past life, but from present-day. Here is where I'll mint shots that for some reason don't seem to fit into this current life, shots that I think should belong to more than one person, or maybe even experimental methods and edits.
