1/1 minted by Hulki Okan Tabak on KnownOrigin, November 2022
With dii inferi my imagination runs amok with mythology and public sources of information. The images, stories and titles sometimes come from one source and sometimes they are hybrids. Some artwork like this one Dreamweaver has extra touches here and there. I create with my heart's desire and sincerely wish beyond the material gain that Dreamweaver and such artwork survive and years later have their place with collectors and viewers to enjoy them.
The dii inferi (Latin, "the gods below") were a shadowy collective of ancient Roman deities associated with death and the underworld. Now they will show up in their Manifold deployed Ethereum smart contract, then on other platforms I mint on and perhaps also in a Tezos counterpart smart contract. That is the whole roadmap. There is also no utility other than art, fun, aesthetics, display pleasure, bragging value, talking points and an eventual resale at a later date (hopefully for not all the tokens you hold).
