About the episode

This weeks guest is Dalek, an acclaimed artist known for his vibrant murals and beautiful work. We explore human behavior and the resistance to shifting from one platform to another, particularly in the ever-evolving web3 landscape. We'll hear Dalek's skepticism about the longevity of platforms like Ethereum and Solana and delve into the challenges of bringing an Instagram following to web3 platforms like Twitter.

Dalek shares his journey from graffiti to painting, emphasizing the manual effort previously required to pursue passions and how the ease of access today does not foster the same character development. We'll also discuss the relentless grind of making it in the art world, the impact of algorithms on social media visibility, and how web3 has opened new doors for artists. With anecdotes about his early life influenced by skateboarding and graffiti, and reflections on the current state of technology, Dalek offers a nuanced perspective on adaptation, commitment, and the essence of staying true to one's art.

Join us as we tackle the intricate interplay between tradition and innovation, the importance of hands-on effort, and the future of artistic expression in a rapidly changing digital world.
