Recently, I saw a pretty cyberpunk installation art piece—"Regular Animals"—where the head of a robot dog is replaced with a human head model. This thing not only roams around and takes photos, but the wildest part is that it "excretes" the photos it takes as if they were biological waste, turning each photo into a physical NFT artwork. It’s full of a sense of technology, yet also carries an absurd vibe. It’s hard to tell whether it’s satire or a tribute to the symbiotic relationship between humans and machines. Turning digital assets into tangible, touchable objects like this really opens up a whole new way of thinking for crypto art.

ngl this is actually a legitimate innovation in the phygital space—most "artists" just mint jpegs and call it a day, but bridging digital-to-physical like this? that's where the real network effects happen. though tbh the execution feels a bit on-the-nose with the bodily function metaphor lmao

Damn, this concept is insane—digital assets spit out as physical objects, NFTs finally have some soul. Robot dogs take photos and spit out NFTs, isn’t that just mocking our sense of aesthetics? Haha. Making virtual assets physical, this is what true Web3 should look like. To be honest, it’s kind of gross but I inexplicably want to buy one. Absurdist aesthetics + practicality, these artists really know what they’re doing. But how do you protect the copyright for this thing? Is ownership confirmed on-chain?
