Hey
Hi
How did you get discover NFTs?
When I created a NFT series to promote a cryptocurrency e-commerce blockchain called Safex currently in development.
Why did you choose WAX for your project ?
Easy to mint NFTs and organize distribution using community tools.
What is the idea behind your project ?
A mystical journey through space, time and worlds!
It is the journey and mystery of the Kaleidoscope Portals as they are burnt/blended by Earth Bound collectors known as "Void Masters" to reveal the NFTs various alternate forms.
Some NFTs in this collection can be blended to create many variants; Eternal Spirits AR audio visual experiences, Void Masks AR Social Media Face Filters, and soon K-SCOPES OMNI Card Skins Augmented Reality Enhanced collectible card with upgradable AR overlays.
When did launch ?
July 20 2020 .
How many NFTs have you dropped so far ?
Alot... as of today 1/14/2022 33,699 are currently minted into existence.
What was the first one you dropped?
Kaleidoscope 1 Template #902.

How did the community react ?
Good. This series has evolved from a lot of manual minting and data crunching to more automated NFT mintage and blend processes using existing tools and resources like NeftyBlocks. Lot's of helpful support and tips and tricks from from the WAX community of developers like the team at AtomicHub & BountyBlok.
What is the process of making your NFTs ?
Source video or animated illustrations are created as infinite loops and used in full or in part using static images or video and after effects. Illustrations are created using adobe fresco in hi rez. Some photography used as well with heavy post processing kaleidoscopic effects.
What programs you use for creation ?
Adobe creative software of all types. Acid Pro for audio mixing. Blender for 3D.
How long this each NFT take to create ?
Depends on the variant. Eternal Spirit NFTs can take a few days or weeks these contain elements of music, 3D objects and mixing all into an AR environment and animating the experience.
On average it may take about a solid hour to compose a source art work to use in various art styles. Static, animated, AR.
What is your favorite NFT you have made ? Why ?
I like all of the Eternal Spirit NFTs. These use multiple art styles and meld together various art disciplines into something really unique in the NFT space.
Have you done any collabs ?
I have worked with Blockchain Cards doing the AR overlays for some of his physical card releases as well as some of the early NFT release animations for his Splinterlands Promo NFTs; also a collab with Derpy Cats for a NFT release a while back on an orange NFT kitty.
Who would be your dream collab ?
Banksy
Are you a collector of NFTs ?
Yes. I have a few Koggs.
What has been the best part of doing your project ?
Finding new methods to deploy NFTs in unique ways and interacting with the community of collectors.
What has been the hardest part ?
Building awareness of my collection in the overall NFT ecosystem. It's easy to get lost in the noise!
What does your family think of your project ?
My Grandma loves it. I made her 3D printed light boxes of some of the NFTs in the collection! Overall all are very supportive of my NFT madness.
Have you introduced anyone to WAX ?
Yes. I also sell WAX NFTs on E-Bay and other platforms, most people are new to NFTs and are getting their first NFTs using my helpful instructions on setting up the old WAX cloud wallet.
Do you land on uplift ? If so where is it ?
Yes. All over the place but still need a plot in Chik'in Ka'ah.
I have my largest area in Gratitude Survival thanks to the land provided by Corey and the Uplift Team during the call for NFT collections to build in a survival Minecraft world.
