🎉 MVFW Recap
It's been a week since Metaverse Fashion Week and we're still processing...how's that for an inaugural MVFW?

🙌 May the 4th rebrand you
As any great company can stand testament, a solid rebranding can elevate an enterprise and set in motion its plans for the future. It is for this reason then, that Cryptovoxels looks to shake off the chains of its lengthy moniker and rebrand purely as ‘Voxels’.

He describes his style as form-oriented, meaning he holds concern for how he can create extravagant, captivating forms without the choice of materials defining his buildings. His more recent builds also focus heavily on the relationship of spaces, the circulation, and the overall experience of the spaces. Of course, his style of design is constantly evolving.
"As an architecture student, I’ve been exposed to the harsh realities of architecture in the real world, in the sense that there are many more factors involved in a building design than just aesthetics. Things like gravity, building code, and budget are usually the biggest factors...
...However, the metaverse is a new reality that takes all of those factors and just throws it out the window. I’ve never thought architecture like this could ever exist, yet it’s here on my computer screen staring right at me."
"Although my experience in the metaverse itself is quite limited as of now, my background in art and architecture is helping me transition into this digital space quite seamlessly. I have a gold mine worth of ideas that I want to bring into the world of web3, and I can’t wait to take everyone along with me on this journey to making history in this new digital era."
Artists's Wise Words:
“We are still in the pioneer stage of the metaverse - there is lots of room for creatives like us to interrogate the idea of architecture existing in the digital realm, and to extract new design ideas from this virtual reality.”

Our Head of Business Development, Dave Carr, will be (in his own words) rabbiting on about the metaverse at Non-Fungible Conference, taking place April 4-5 in Lisbon, Portugal.
If you're in the EU—or even better a current Lisbonite—you might just be able to make it in time to catch him!
Enjoying this NFT from @neurocolor and @XCOPYART for @NFCsummit. Will be rabbiting on about the #metaverse and other matters at the conference. Come along and heckle me (no slapping).
