On Episode 8 (how fitting) of ZEROPOD, Toady Hawk and Cardno host the one and only Jack Butcher, founder of Visualize Value and the man behind the Checks and Opepen art projects.
We learn about Jack’s childhood in the UK, how he ended up Stateside, and all about his journey as an artist and a creative. We then delve into the ethos behind Checks and Opepen, the importance of CC0 + permissionless protocols for solving “The Cold Start Problem” for artists, and much, much more.
We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did, and please LIKE, COMMENT and SUBSCRIBE if you do!
