Subscapes is a collection of NFT that seamlessly blends the characteristics of the minimalist’s studio apartment with the land parcel projects we’ve come to be familiar with all over the Metaverse worlds. There are upwards of 650 items available on OpenSea and they all have some interesting elements in common. Just like other NFTs of the type, the algorithm that generates them selects from a number of different elements and randomly assembles them to create varying degrees of rarity within the community. They look and feel like snapshots of landscapes from an architectural or rural commission survey team’s handbook. In the main article we will examine some of these pieces.

How Cool

From multi-colored psychedelic water pouring over the edge of an imaginary landscape to black and white and pristine chunks of land, we see that these NFT are informed by a minimalist approach that haunts the viewer with a myriad of whole-mood aesthetics. They capture the imagination as much as they catch the eye, and the wide range of possible combinations makes holders feel like they really have something special.

Honestly, I like this collection because I’m a minimalist myself, but that’s not to say that someone who likes more bombastic art won’t be drawn to this collection in order to round out their portfolio. Having a few of these in your personal art house would add a lot to the depth of your collection, and it would go a ways to broadening your idea of what an NFT can be.

A Huge Ticket Selling Agency Just Made a Leap On Blockchain. Ticketmaster, the vending giant, just decided to seal a deal with the Flow blockchain. This deal entails one of the largest movements by a mainstream entity to endorse and utilize blockchain technology. Tech Crunch just told us that “Ticketmaster will now let event organizers issue NFTs (non-fungible tokens) tied to tickets on Flow, a blockchain operated by a16z-backed Dapper Labs.” This is an interesting move from an unlikely source, and in this article today, we will be discussing this deal.

The Scoop

Last year, when this arguably began, Ticketmaster made another deal with Polygon, which is based on the Ethereum chain. This was done to offer NFL fans the ability to buy virtual tickets on the blockchain. Now, we have a new deal that brings this move to full fruition.

“Event organizers who choose to offer fans an NFT with their ticket have a real opportunity to make this new technology relevant and relatable at scale. This is why we are partnering with Flow, because their blockchain is custom-built for fan engagement and frictionless consumer experiences.” Brandan Lynch

The Host’s Perspective

“Its partner for this project, Dapper Labs, which raised $250 million at a $7.6 billion valuation last year, is no stranger to sports-based digital collectibles distributed through Flow. It’s well-known as the creator of NBA Top Shot, an NFT marketplace for basketball fans to buy, sell and trade cards of players and top moments in the sport.” -Tech Crunch

The cyber security market is bigger than ever, and shows no signs of slowing. This is, of course, in part due to the fact that the internet is playing larger and larger roles in our lives. Yes, even though another theft has occurred and it apparently happened over the course of an entire month. How bad was the damage? Well, painfully, we have received news that over 100 million dollars of assets were stolen and duplicated. The duplication glitch is something we’re still looking into. But, for now, we need you to be aware of some of the broad ideas that have impacted this security breach.

The Scoop

As it turns out, several companies want to compete with the monolith that is the Oculus VR tech. Incidentally, Sony has announced the launch of the project that they hope will contend with that system. Not only has this been highly anticipated by gamers, but consumers in general as well.

The PS2VR will showcase Sony’s highly anticipated haptic feedback gear along with a sleek headset that blends well with their overall design theme.

The Host’s Perspective

“The road to launch for PlayStation VR2 is in full swing, and we can’t wait for you to try the exciting new games and experiences you’ll be able to explore with our next-generation virtual reality headset. As we continue with our launch efforts, today, we’d like to offer a quick peek at some of the user experience features you’ll discover on PS VR2. ” -Sony Blog
