Innovative Ibiza-based music and arts platform OpenLab are set to launch a very special set of art x music collaborative NFTs. This announcement follows the news of their early-access Future Pass arriving on Aug 3rd.
The project is the first initiative with TokenTraxx. Together, they are uniting cutting-edge music talent with some of the most exciting names in visual art to create new and highly collectible audio-visual works.
What is the 1st OpenLab x TokenTraxx NFT Collaboration project all about?
The project, called ’New Mycelium Network’, is inspired by the networked roots of fungi. What’s more, it takes collaboration as a jumping-off point for imaginative and creative departures in difficult times. At 6pm BST on 3 August, a highly limited number of OpenLab Future Passes will available through TokenTraxx. In short, these passes provide early access to this exclusive NFT drop.
This is the first of many ambitious cross-platform creative collaborations between OpenLab and TokenTraxx. But why? Well, TokenTraxx is on a mission to be at the centre of a new independent music and arts creator economy. They aim to achieve this by providing a platform driven by NFTs which supports and financially benefits the whole arts community.
About the Audio-Visual NFTs and the Artists behind them
A classically trained cellist, Ellie Pritts creates richly saturated and psychedelic artworks that spellbind her viewers. To explain, her digital practice is a tangled collaboration with AI, old school analogue technology and the latest in coding techniques.
Then, she collaborates with with Kate Simko, a classical pianist and composer as well as a DJ and electronic music producer. Originally from Chicago but now based in London, Kate founded LEO – the London Electronic Orchestra. The LEO is an all female fusion of classical and electronic music. Meanwhile, Kate also teaches electronic music at The Royal College of Music. Despite that, she still found time to collaborate on electronic music productions with top industry producers Seth Troxler and Jamie Jones.
Japanese digital artist Saeko Ehara is the Queen of all that sparkles. Bringing her fascination with glitter to digital art, her practice spans NFTs and generative video. As a VJ, her incredible immersive installations respond in real time to the music playing alongside them. In tune with the sound, Saeko generates enchanting organic patterns that create a euphoric experience. Accordingly, her NFTs are notorious for their intense detail and fantasy feel.
Saeko will be working with Xiaolin (Olivia Xiaolin) – a producer, sound explorer, DJ and instrumentalist from Hong Kong. Xiaolin has an impressively wide sonic spectrum that includes jazz fusion, acid house, dreamy synths and organic breaks. In addition, she attained a double master’s degree in jazz and music technology at Berklee College of Music.
