🧬 B3YOND THE GRAM 🧬
A collection of 20 photos to evolve your way of thinking and prep you for web3, by Vincent Harttrup 🌸
In 2018, Alice Philipp and Vincent Harttrup joined forces to produce what was arguably Kitchener Ontario’s first exhibition that merged photography, fashion and art in a speak easy -esque setting. Their vision was simple - showcase their work IRL, beyond the means of Instagram. With the event being a success, the Alice and Vincent continued to produce work for IRL events and advocate for face to face interactions with their peers. Beyond the gram was and will always be built on the idea of taking ownership of and being proud to promote your work. This principal inspired the minting of 20 unique photos from the b3yond the gram exhibition and mindset. As artists continued to seek space to share and promote their work, NFTs began to make mainstream attention in late 2020. In web3, the people are in control. Giving space for people to learn about the importance of owning a digital asset is valuable right now, especially if it’s been on your mind. Welcome to that space, welcome to b3yond the gram.
The money in web3 and NFT’s can be confusing. This project will not make you rich, in fact, you probably won’t see this investment back in your wallet (unless of course we host a virtual gallery in 5 years and we ask you to display your photos and someone buys it off you haha). The importance of this collection is to get you familiar with web3 and NFTs, because it’s not going anywhere. Your intro to web3 however does come with a physical print of your NFT so let’s chat! Thank you for supporting and I hope to see your face IRL and in the metaverse sooner rather than later 💕

Things to note before booking our hangout ✍🏼
-There is no minting for this collection (I will explain minting if you don’t know what it is). This drop is first come first served so the earlier you book your hangout the better chance of selecting your 1/1 photo.
-An investment in yourself .💰When buying any type of NFT on the Etherium Network, there are super high fees to process the transaction. You will need approximately 120$ USD in a crypto wallet OR 150 CAD ready to purchase crypto. It’s a sink cost, it sucks just as bad as a paying for a covid test before returning to Canada, but if you’re playing this game, be prepared for discouraging fees. The cost of each photo in my collection is less than the fee, but if cost is an issue, let’s talk 🤝
-Option for group hangs or solo talks for new to crypto and/or new to NFTs friends are being booked on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Be sure to message Vince personally for alternative date options🦾
