<h1>Evan Mendoza</h1>
<p>From pitching baseballs to pitching NFTs</p>
<p>NFT DROP ON <a href="https://foundation.app/evanmendoza">FOUNDATION</a> </p>
<p>May 3rd, 2021 at 4pm CDT</p>

<p>I was born in Baltimore Maryland and grew up mostly in Sarasota, Florida. During my years in middle school, my family and I moved often, back-and-forth between Maryland and Florida. This created an instability in my social life as I never really had one place to call home or the opportunity to form deep relationships with my peers. This also brought my family closer to one another.</p>

<p>I started playing baseball when I was four years old and played a few years of Little League before starting travel ball. I simply love the game, love to get better every day, and truly enjoy the time spent with my older brother who has helped me train and work out. </p>
<p>Our entire family grew up Baltimore Oriole fans which is the hometown team and Camden yards was my first big league ball park I ever went to a game when I was around five years old. </p>
<p>Growing up, I was a huge fan of Adam Jones and can say that he is one of the first people to inspire and awaken the creativity within me. Jones always had custom cleats and motivated me to paint my own pair of old cleats too that I played in religiously until they started to chip in high school.</p>
<p>The inspiration and creativity didn’t stop there, it only grew. It led me to creating the majority of digital concept designs for a custom cleat customizer named Stadium Custom Kicks.</p>

<p>My creativity is what has drawn me to the NFT space and since entering it, I have learned a lot from my spring training teammate, Matt Szczur. Matt and I have a lot in common. He has a 2016 World Championship under his belt but he is also very creative like myself. He took me under his wing and explained how to get into the NFT space and I did just that, seizing the opportunity.</p>
<p>During my freshman year of high school, I attended Severna Park High School. We had an unbelievably talented team and even though I was a freshman on varsity, I pitched very well and also played a very solid shortstop. </p>
<p>My head coach Jim Mccandless was my idol. Him putting me on varsity, trusting me, and giving me confidence throughout practices and games made me draw a very close connection with him. He was way more than a coach, you could even say a catalyst into me becoming the player that I am today.</p>

<p>I made it to the state championship game during my freshman year and was named the starting pitcher. During the practice before that game, Coach Mccandless printed out the transcript of Jimmy V’s ESPYs speech and read it to the entire team. I did not know who Jimmy V was nor North Carolina State University. </p>
<p>Long story short, I did terribly on the mound in that state championship game and we lost the game. We were all heartbroken.</p>
<p>Fast forward to September in my sophomore year, an old teammate from Maryland reached out to me and told me the heartbreaking news - Coach Mccandless took his own life. He had two daughters, one of them was only a few months old and I never got any closure from that. He didn’t leave a note or anything. </p>

<p>Around my Junior and Senior year of high school, I started getting in contact with some colleges. I reached out and was interested in colleges that had the major I was interested in studying, aerospace engineering. A lot of good baseball programs reached out to me but I was smart even as a highschooler and I understood there was more than baseball. I used my brains as a Plan B if baseball didn’t work out. </p>

<p>When I went on my unofficial visit to NC State in Raleigh North Carolina, I loved everything about it. I also learned that Coach Mccandless and Coach Avent (NC State Head Coach) were on the same coaching staff when they both coached for New Mexico state university. </p>
<p>I just felt like this was my home.</p>
<p>After the visit my family and I went to a local mall in Raleigh where a special song was playing. Coach Mccandless during BP would love to listen to 70s and 80s music. One of the songs that I vividly remember is the song September by Earth, Wind, and Fire. I started to tear up a little bit because that song was playing in the background at a local store. </p>
<p>That’s when I knew North Carolina State was going to be the university I attend.</p>
<p>I worked extremely hard to earn a position but my sophomore year I was blocked by a senior at third base. I earned that position but unfortunately somethings don’t play out the way you want. So I had to be patient and wait about 10 games for my first opportunity. After that, I took off and absolutely started dominating the ACC. I went on to hit around 360 that year. And then I got drafted by the Cardinals my junior year. The rest is history. </p>

<h1>“Don’t give up, don’t ever give up”</h1>
<h2>My inspiration:</h2>
<p>I started with a simple helmet and let my creativity take over. As I was creating, I thought back to the time I got hit in the head by a ball and that’s what inspired the shatter part of the helmet. I also broke my wrist 2x in 2019 ending my season. The helmet represents my body and how precious it really is. The background comes from always loving the water, especially the beach. At my home in palm beach I always enjoy eating lunch out on the dock watching the waves and seeing the boats and yachts pass by.</p>

Jim&#39;s 1993 ESPY Speech

<p>As I was creating and brainstorming ideas for filling the subject, Jimmy V came to my mind. I was watching ESPN as background noise and that’s when the Jimmy V 30 for 30 came on and that’s also when everything came together. “Don’t give up, don’t ever give up. I’m going to have a Jimmy V inspired NFT,” I thought to myself. </p>
<p>While listening to his speech, one part stuck out to me the most.</p>
<p>“Try if you can to support, so that someone else might survive, might prosper and might actually cured of this dreaded disease.”</p>
<p>I then said to myself I CAN support! Maybe not with my dollars but my art can. So I decided to donate 100% of proceeds to the<a href="https://www.v.org/our-story-2/?gclid=CjwKCAjwj6SEBhAOEiwAvFRuKD7fod6i7Vvihn9AxZnYljG_gwBY8hdWZW-ZgQpPq5sM_CND8wJTwRoCiUYQAvD_BwE"> V Foundation</a> for cancer research. </p>
<p>The V Foundation is the foundation that Jimmy V started while he was battling cancer himself which he announced during his 1993 ESPYs speech. It would be an incredible dream come true for me if some new research comes out from the money we raised, and even saved one life. We cannot and will not learn if we do not research. We have to fund this. </p>
<p>Who would have known that the same speech my Coach read to me years before would be the inspiration behind my NFT? I certainly did not but am so grateful that it is</p>

<h1>Bold Vulnerability </h1>
<h1>Gabe Weis x Camille Chiang</h1>

<p>(Description via <a href="https://opensea.io/assets/0x495f947276749ce646f68ac8c248420045cb7b5e/30876368432978488567359201842266534228201856793255242988582579990170521567237">OpenSea</a> )</p>
<p>This piece of work is the collaborative effort of artists <a href="https://instagram.com/gabe_weis?igshid=at5de0d0f6fd">Gabe Weis</a> and <a href="https://instagram.com/camilleachiang?igshid=lvsdwu12e00k">Camille Chiang</a> . It was made in the physical world and transformed in the digital world. This project started as a portrait by Camille of a boy embracing himself. She painted a boy who is seen as strong and handsome by society but who longs to be held as he looks for safety. Sharing a fragment of herself through her portraits, Camille conveys a strong sense of inward fragility that is only seen in these small moments of silence. Fellow Bay Area artist Gabe Weis, then came in with courage and strength, using his signature bold lines, street art aesthetic and multiple faces to paint a picture of a complex man with boldness and confidence. He turns the boy into a man, and shielded him from his insecurities. The hand that rests on his shoulder is one of comfort, and not of fear. The contrasting emotions create a beautiful story of one personality. The 5th NFT in this series will come with an unlockable that is the original physical painting, which is 30 by 40" and on canvas. May you always understand your complexity and never forget to keep your bold vulnerability.</p>

Over the course of the last decade, brothers Guy &amp; Howard Lawrence have honed their craft as producers, musicians &amp; songwriters, headlined countless festivals &amp; iconic venues all over the world, as well as earning a grammy nomination for every album they have ever made. They are largely credited to have been one of the main forces driving House &amp; UK Garage music back into the public consciousness in the 2010s. Collaboration has always been a huge part of Disclosure’s musical path &amp; they are bringing that same philosophy to the visual art world.</p>
<p>Grif is a multidisciplinary visual artist and director, whose work spans the spectrum of sculpture, fine art, and moving image. A renowned figure in the design world, Grif's works have been exhibited globally.

We went to Kenya last year to see it in action &amp; it was truly incredible.</p>
<p>Although he originally studied and honed his skills in more traditional mediums of art and design, over the last 4 years <a href="https://instagram.com/jhgfx?igshid=3ljh68kzso69">Jordan Harrison</a> (jhgfx) had began to fall into the world of 3D design. Teaching himself how to model, texture and illuminate scenes he starting to create more complex 3D artwork and branch out into motion design. His work is heavily influenced by music, usually taking a single scrap or detail from a project or body of work and creating an entire piece around in. 'The iconic Disclosure face was a perfect illustration to bring into the 3D world. Throughout it's history, usually plastered onto the faces of numerous collaborators, I wanted to add another dimension to the band’s decade old ideogram. Experimenting with perspective and dragging the face into different dimensions in 3D space.'</p>
<p>The holder of each auction piece will gain free entry for yourself + 2 guests to all Disclosure shows WORLDWIDE! (Not including festivals).</p>

<p> Happy Earth Day, my friends!! 🌎🌍🌏 </p>
<p>I’m an beyond honored that this piece is now a part of 888’s collection. ✨ </p>
<p>__________</p>
<p>Life is constantly moving, whether we are there to witness it or not. Life sustains life from the deepest depths of the bluest oceans to the greenest landscapes on every continent. It’s a gift that we cannot take back if we foolishly give it away. It’s up to us to see all life on this planet as the beautiful magic show that it is.</p>
<p>I chose to use a Sea Turtle in this piece because all seven species are currently threatened or endangered. As with many other endangered species on this earth, it’s mostly because of our own doing. When we protect what we love and respect all living things, we’re able to thrive as a whole and preserve life on this planet for generations to come.</p>
<p>________</p>
<p>I’m so happy to be donating half of the profits from this sale to <a href="https://instagram.com/pangeaseed?igshid=cj2t3mc9bwx6">@pangeaseed</a> to conserve and protect our oceans and wildlife.</p>

FLOSSTRADAMUS NFT GUIDE: a step-by-step to purchasing and collecting NFTs. — @undefined's mag on Magma

<h1><strong>EXPERIENCE THE HIGH</strong></h1>

<p>  <h1>The barriers between cyberspace and the physical world are beginning to melt. </h1></p><p>In this transitional period, Flosstradamus aims to take NFTs to a new frontier. Intertwining cryptographic technology with euphoria inducing vaporization, Flosstradamus is releasing the World's First Smokable NFT, allowing you to fully experience the art from the inside out.</p>

<h2>Flosstradamus, American DJ and musician Curt Cameruci, is credited with launching “trap,” a genre of music marrying dance and hip hop, giving birth to a new era of sound. </h2>
<h2>For over 12 years, Flosstradamus has toured the world and performed at major festivals. He cultivated his massive fan base, HDYNATION and has made an imprint on pop culture in music, tech and the cannabis industry. </h2>

<h1><strong>DIGITAL MEETS PHYSICAL</strong></h1><p>NFTs are now digitizing the art landscape and shifting the way we collect art; merging the forefront of technology and culture. In order to aid in the evolution of humanity, Cameruci saw the opportunity to combine the digital and physical world producing a special treat for art collectors and cannabis enthusiasts alike. </p>

<p>On April 20, 2021, Flosstradamus is releasing his first NFT collection on Rarible. The 3/3 collection includes a digital audio-visual art piece minted on the Ethereum Blockchain, as well as a custom made HDYNATION Electronic Vape. This collection tells the story of a galactic leap into the future of art. </p>

<h1><strong>MULTI UNLOCKABLE NFT</strong></h1><p>Flosstradamus believes the audience is as much part of the art as the piece itself. There are chances for consumers to unlock other NFTs throughout the entire drop as they take part in and support revolutionary technology and participate in an era bridging audio, visual, tech, and physical items. </p>

<p>Once the highest bidder of the auction wins the NFT, they will receive a physical, Chrome Plated HDY-VAPE. This vape is fully functional for smoking any combination of CBD and THC. Additionally, it doubles as a USB-C harddrive containing another unlockable easter egg NFT, once connected to a computer. </p>
<p>This highly interactive collection is innovating the young NFT world by example through it’s hybrid nature and multi-step experience. On 4/20 there will be a drop party hosted on Clubhouse, where fans and peers can talk directly with Flosstradamus about his iconic genesis collection. </p>

<p>The real world is emerging into the crypto space at an all time high. We are at the precipice of an era where artists are being given complete control over their assets and have the power to decide the worth being attached to what they are creating. Flosstradamus believes that this is a huge part of the story behind what is motivating and driving creators in all niches around the globe to reach out and grasp this revolutionary opportunity and find their place within this ever growing community that is exponentially growing.</p>
<p>Art is a culmination of the story, the creator and the consumer. Flosstradamus has a unique perspective in qualifying this experience for all parties. Flosstradamus believes the user is the biggest part of the story, and he is revolutionizing the role of consumers.</p>

<p>There are endless ways to get high off of this revolutionary movement but none like what you are about to experience. Bypassing the social construct and limitations, the need to bridge physical objects into the digital space inspired and fueled the creation of Flosstradamus’ First Smokeable NFT. </p>
<p>One of the most amazing feelings is to build together, evolve together, and progress - together. Leading by example, Flosstradamus has invented the first digital NFT that will be unlocked by a physical device - a collaborative and authentic experience between himself and his consumers. </p>
<p>Flosstradamus collaborated with Aegis Studio, a blockchain and software development agency and Blunt Action, a multimedia production studio based in NYC to curate this very unique NFT project. Collectively, the team’s goal was to create an immersive experience for the digital landscape to meet the physical world. </p>
