EP 24 - Taking NFT’s to Space with Tom Sachs
On this episode of Next with Novo, I sit down with Tom Sachs, native New Yorker, artist, & NFT newbie. For those not familiar, Tom is on a mission to revolutionize the art industry by creating his version of “outer space” and challenging our perception of reality. His “Space Program” exhibition first reimagined the moon landing at the Gagosian Gallery in LA, then took on colonization of Mars at the Park Avenue Armory in NYC. Tom also has an ongoing partnership with Nike, where he designed high-performing, space-themed equipment. In this episode, Tom tells us all about his next project – his first entry into the NFT space – called Rocket Factory, which will consist of 3,000 unique, digital rocket components that can be combined to form 1,000 completed rockets. If desired, those with completed rockets can choose to have a physical rocket created and actually launched towards the atmosphere. As an out-of-the-box thinker, Tom explains how he’s taking his creative expertise into NFTs, as well as growing & developing the NFT space in the process.
