Tom Sachs - NFTs + Rockets = Fun - Zima Red ep 69 Jul 30, 2021

Show notes

My guest today is Tom Sachs. Tom is a world renowned artist that has been experimenting with all forms of art and creation since he was young. Whether it be a painting, sculpture, drawing or NFT, his thirst for designing, destroying and creating never stops

Tom and I go deep on this one. We discuss his creative process, the incredible power of mimesis, his partnership with NFT Studios and of course Rockets.

Toms upcoming NFT project, Rocket Factory is a gamechanger. Users are able to collect 3 rocket pieces, combine them into a singular NFT and then decide to launch the rocket. Tom will literally go into his workshop, build a small rocket and launch it into the sky. The rocket that was launched will then reflect that it had been launched.

Really incredible dynamics combining NFT art with physical world interaction.

Always pushing the boundaries, Tom is someone I suggest you keep an eye on.

Please enjoy my conversation with Tom Sachs.
