~ Wild Word Web ~

O que?

A Wild Word Web (WWW), REDE DA PALAVRA SELVAGEM, é uma iniciativa filantrópica e figital que visa cultivar o potencial da web3 para coletar recursos financeiros e ações positivas para a conservação da vida selvagem.

Os elementos incluídos em cada NFT foram desenvolvidos propositalmente para ajudar nossa espécie a se sensibilizar sobre as realidades dos seres amplamente incompreendidos, desconsiderados, e oprimidos que compartilham a Terra conosco.

Para quem?

Todos estão convidados a comprar, colecionar, e revender estes NFTs. Se você não tem familiaridade com NFTs, veja o guia para iniciantes da NFT Evening para saber como tudo funciona. Sinta-se à vontade para entrar em contato comigo diretamente se tiver alguma dúvida.

Como?

NFTs e itens físicos são minuciosamente criados em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, sem seleção aleatória de atributos ou geração com Inteligência Artificial. Todos os designs seguem quatro estilos que chamam atenção para questões identificadas pelo artista e representam animais na Lista Vermelha de Espécies Ameaçadas desenvolvida pela União Internacional para a Conservação da Natureza (IUCN). Este recurso é usado mundialmente por pesquisadores, formuladores de políticas e ativistas para avaliar a probabilidade de extinção de quase 170.000 espécies catalogadas até o momento. NFTs são listados para mintagem no OpenSea em duas categorias:

1. Alerta

Quantidade: item único por espécie

Preço: fixo em 33 USDC

Alocação de recursos: Doação para a IUCN 50%, Camiseta, estampa e adesivo da WWW 50%*

2. Ontem... Hoje! Amanhã?

Preço: fixo em 25 USDC cada

Alocação de recursos: Doação para a IUCN 50%, Camiseta da WWW 50%*

Quantidade: varia de acordo com o status de cada espécie para aumentar a base de apoio daquelas que mais a necessitam

Extinta na natureza: 1
pouco preocupante: 2
Não avaliada ou Dados deficientes: 3
Quase ameaçada: 4
Vulnerável: 5
Em perigo: 6
Criticamente me perigo: 7

*benefícios concedidos ao primeiro comprador de um NFT. Frete não incluso nos custos de mintagem. Os compradores subsequentes poderão comprar a camiseta da WWW, adesivos e estampas neste site em janeiro de 2025. Aqueles que abrirem mão da recompensa física, receberão NFTs exclusivos para mintagem no mês seguinte.

Quando?

A fase piloto deste projeto entrará em operação no fim de 2024 e durará aproximadamente seis meses para testar e otimizar o fluxo de criação de ativos digitais, transações e compensações adequadas de gases de efeito estufa emitidos durante o processo. Novos NFTs são lançados a cada duas semanas via Warpcast (casts), Instagram (posts) e Discord (eventos).

E Daí?

No final de junho de 2025, todos os valores arrecadados das transações de NFTs serão divulgados neste site e 50% será doado à IUCN por meio da página de doações.

* Se você não puder ou não estiver interessado em adquirir minha arte, mas ainda quiser ajudar animais ameaçados de extinção em todo o mundo, você pode fazer uma doação diretamente à IUCN usando o link acima.

the subject is composed of binary code and arranged in vertical green lines, as the Matrix digital rain. The specimen faces the viewer with void sensory features, disappearing at the bottom into the black background, alluding to the way the species is fading into nothingness. This specimen places its virtual digits around its hollow insides, where the number “404” and the words “NOT FOUND” can be read. This piece is called “Amanhã?”, the Portuguese equivalent for “Tomorrow?”, as no one knows for sure what the future will bring for this species… or ours, for that matter. Are they still there? Or are their last traces of existence forever confined to mere "0"s and "1"s?

the subject is a specimen made with earth tones in simple strokes to simulate rupestrian paintings. The subject faces the viewer, standing inside a dark cave, which has paintings of birds flying in formation and paw prints. The specimen carries a sign depicting a flock of ducks that once flew away never to return. How come? Where have they gone? What have we done?

The subject is a Vitorious style specimen with a black body, halo, forked tongue, golden eyes and “v”-shaped markings. The specimen faces the viewer, standing on a red brick sidewalk, and carrying a rectangular sign with the words “Understand”, “Me”, and “Entenda” around a QR code and link to the NFT collection on the Vitorious website. The animal is near a spray can with a crossed out Vitruvian Man and in front of a grey wall with old graffiti and Be|Wilder Brigade logos freshly sprayed in black.

the subject is a specimen made with earth tones of brown, beige, and red in simple strokes to simulate rupestrian paintings. As its data deficient status suggests, not much is known about the species, aside from its relatives' fancy for using dung for a variety of purposes. Hence, the sign with the earliest known depiction of the poop emoji (this is a joke). The specimen faces the viewer, standing inside a dark cave, which has a painting of a small beetle rolling a massive ball of dung. What a magical sight!

The specimen stands on a red brick sidewalk and faces the viewer while carrying a rectangular sign with the words “Understand”, “Me”, and “Entenda” around a QR code to the NFT collection on the Vitorious website, and the link to said site underneath it. S/he is also holding a spray can with a crossed out Vitruvian Man. The animal is in front of a grey wall with old graffiti and the Be|Wilder Brigade symbol sprayed in yellow.

The subject is a specimen made with earth tones of brown, beige, and red in simple strokes to simulate rupestrian paintings. As its critical status suggests, the species has nothing but its spots left and a simple sign that calls for more rain in hopes that its habitat will regenerate. The specimen faces the viewer, standing inside a dark cave, in which wall paintings of a single paw print and a couple of Pepes throwing a tadpole in the air in jubilation simbolize the small number of individuals left and their dreams of a more prosperous future.

NFT design elements: the subject is composed with binary code and arranged in vertical green lines, as the Matrix digital rain. The specimen faces the viewer with void sensory features and characteristic spots, disappearing at the bottom into the black background, alluding to the species fading into nothingness. The faux-fauve, tech composite of the majestic jaguar places its virtual digits around its hollow insides, where the number “404” and the words “NOT FOUND” can be read. The specimen's tail morphs into a snake, as the machine misinterprets the body part for another animal, yielding a chimera that is only less disturbing than our preference for "beasts" in zoos, fashion patterns and digital avatars.

NFT design elements: the subject is a simplified digital painting of a Jaguar and it faces the viewer. The specimen floats in front of a teal background, signaling the color code of its IUCN Red List status, and is flanked by his scientific name written in black and Near Threatened status in English and Portuguese written in black. The animal carries a yellow rectangular sign with the words “See Me?” in braille to check who is compassionately cognizant and supportive of their existence. A yellow and black flag is planted on the ground to call out for the Extinction Rebellion movement.

NFT design elements: the subject is a Vitorious style specimen with a black body, halo, forked tongue, golden eyes and “v”-shaped markings, and a spray can with a crossed out Vitruvian Man being held by its tail. The specimen faces the viewer, standing by an old piece of gum on a red brick sidewalk, and carries a rectangular sign with the words “Understand”, “Me”, and “Entenda” around a QR code to the NFT collection on the Vitorious website, and the link to direct people to said site underneath it. The animal is in front of a grey wall with old graffiti and a few words and symbols freshly sprayed in yellow.

The specimen faces the viewer with eyes shaped like two letter “x”s and a sad expression, disappearing at the bottom into the black background. The faux-fauve, tech composite of a real creature places its virtual digits around its hollow insides, where the number “404” and the words “NOT FOUND” can be read. Its tail coils into what seems like a middle finger, with the letters “F” and “U” at the top, directed at those who apathetically awaited and/or contribute to the demise of their kind and our own.

NFT design elements: the subject is a simplified digital painting of a Black Lion Tamarin and it faces the viewer. The specimen floats in front of an orange background, signaling the color code of its IUCN Red List status, and is flanked by his scientific name written in black and Endangered status in English and Portuguese written in beige. The animal holds a yellow and black flag with its tail to call out for the Extinction Rebellion movement and carries a yellow rectangular sign with the words “See Me?” in braille to check who is compassionately cognizant and supportive of their existence.
