Interview

Dave Swinbank

Creative Talents Magzine - issue 003 — My name is Dave Swinbank, I’m 37 and British. I have worked in offices and retail. As a manager, in sales, managed renewal books and been an analyst between an Ops dept and a Dev team. My friend had been badgering me about crypto for about 6 months and then showed me NFT’s in July/Aug 2021. I have always collected things; football programmes, visitor/guide books, football stickers and more. The thing that made me excited was the unique end user ownership when I saw Sorare. I could own it, I could play with it, I could build a team with it and it was mine. As I delved deeper into NFT’s, I got missold on a couple of projects and lost a decent sum of money. Then I found CrypotGoonz, Friday Night Punks and Cartridge Punkz. Since then, everything has changed. I found them all in the early weeks of September 2022.

Fine Art Photographer

Declan Officer

I'm a photographer, originally from the United Kingdom, but I currently live in Portugal after 6 years of traveling to many countries, such as Australia, New Zealand, and Indonesia. My photography centers primarily on landscapes and travel, but I have also recently developed an interest in the more intimate details of both our artificial and natural world. Textural and abstract photography are my new focus. Often, it leads to beautiful artistic discovery when you zoom in on a material's textures and patterns. I'm very passionate about photography and I believe it gives us the ability to capture a story from our emotions within. To me... believing is seeing.

For those who don't already know, May 22 marked the 12 year anniversary of the first retail transaction involving Bitcoin. 2 pizzas for the low low price of 10,000 BTC, (an estimated $296,000,000 pizza at present) purchased by Laszio Hanyecz. A San Francisco pizzeria, Sunset Squares Pizza hosted a global event in collaboration with PizzaDAO at Temple nightclub in San Francisco. This event happened globally, (Vancouver, Chicago, Buenos Aires, LA, Seoul, London, SF, and more.) The event was branded to have free pizza, an NFT exhibit, and DJs. I was thrilled to experience an IRL event celebrating crypto and NFTs, and to support other local NFT projects.

My collection consists of 888 NFTs—each one is a partially generated 3D architectural exhibition space! My vision is to create an immersive experience within the NFT space.

Artist

James Hurley

James Hurley Creative Talents Magazine - issue 003 — James is BOLD and direct, this is reflected in his art. He doesn’t let other peoples actions or approaches to life corrupt his mind or attitude. He is his TRUE SELF and has learned to follow his own path brushing himself off and carrying on when he stumbles or has taken a wrong turn, he learns from mistakes or failures. James has turned his negative thoughts about his dreams and ambitions, “its impossible”, into his reality “I’m Possible” this was achieved when he realised he is his most under used and undervalued asset. When asked to describe his work James responded as follows: “I am an Artist. I am a creator. I am a creative entrepreneur. I turn Love, Joy, Passion, challenging emotions into art that makes connections between fantasy and reality to make photo-art that feeds the creative mind and generates happiness at a subconscious level.
