After taking the summer off, we are back in the studio with a familiar face: Slimesunday
We dive into all of the details of SLIMESHOP a collage art layering tool and the first pack drop coming this Thursday September 8th! In collaboration with OpenSea, Slime has been working on this project for over 8 months and we are excited to see the fruits of their labor: https://slimeshop.slimesunday.com/
We end the episode reminiscing about the NFT beginnings and try to remember some things that happened over the summer but we were pretty unplugged. Glad to be back in the saddle, more episodes will drop at our leisure and might not be weekly moving forward, just a heads up!

On the 76th episode of “That’s Nifty” we sat down with Johan Lolos a Belgian-Greek Photographer who backpacks around the world. NFTs have allowed him to take on less client driven projects and focus on his passions. With the use of his social media presence, he has the power to catapult tourism to the locations he shoots!

On the 75th episode of “That’s Nifty” we sat down with recurring guests KidEight and Karsen Daily, NFT power couple, to discuss the new drop on NiftyGateway this Saturday May 28th: “Resurrection God: The Return of the Anti-Hero”
We go over the drop mechanics which include burning previous pieces for entries to some 1/1 pieces. All burners get something in return. We talk toys, mixtapes, apparel, custom marketplaces, creator economies, and relationships.

On the 74th episode of “That’s Nifty” we sat down with Mark Wilson AKA Toads Wiback AKA diewiththemostlikes an artist/writer who shines a light on hometown decay and the endless cycle of consumerism. His sense of humor breaks the tension when the art hits too close to home and you realize you are also a part of this cycle. Monster Energy, Slim Jims, Kirkland brand, Kohls, the Catholic Church, we cover it all as we discover what makes Mark tick.

On the 73rd episode of “That’s Nifty” we sat down with Kitty Bast an artist who’s medium knows no bounds. Canvas, sculptures, digital she does it all! This is episode explores her art practice as well as the collective human experience. Everyone contends with struggles, our own personal hells. Kitty is very honest about hers and we were inspired by her courage to shine light onto the darkness. “Reflections may expose more reality than the object they echo”

We talk about his various projects across the blockchain including “Hidden in Plain Sight” on OpenSea.

On the 66th episode of “That’s Nifty” we sat down with Ben Skaar a photographer/videographer with a knack for story-telling and community building. Wise beyond his years, he delivers advice to artists and collectors from a place of mutual respect and personal experience. The winner of the 2020 Youth Photographer of the Year award is too humble to brag but should be recognized for reinvesting his earnings back into the space. Not just by purchasing other’s art but by guiding and onboarding them into the community, investing time and encouragement.
