Back from /farcon-rome and already start feeling the post-conference-blues kick in, while I am at the same time brimming with ideas and energy. I traveled to rome with very little expectations, only goal was to connect with as many people as possible and get a few to participate in the bust project - I left with my bag full of stickers, my heart full of newfound friends and over 100 traits, contributed by 70+ people. It is hard to verbalize how wonderful the time in the eternal city was, but if i would try to do so i would for sure talk about all the human connections first. I met so many people behind the pfp, across such a wide variety of events (starting at logos circle, at @kismetcasa, during sessions, talks, over pizza, italian tacos, while looking at art, while making art, while dancing to art) and one consitent thing, regardless if it was an OG idol, or a completely new face, was how nice and interested everyone was. I literally had 0 people try to shill something to me, which has never ever happened on any of the many other conferences I have been to. I also throughoutly enjoyed the focus on cypherpunk values and the question how we can go higher across all dimensions, not just price. Also stunned by the feedback bust project received, after it started 1month ago as a little art activiation for my personal enjoyement. Excited to put in the remaining work here and get this thing into everyones hands. Little update coming hopefully later today. I wont even try to tag everyone I met, general rule is: If you were there and we talked, you are a beautiful person and I really appreciate you. That said, some selected shoutouts: @limone.eth, @andreap, @statuette, @luciano, @lucamorelli & @darph (and certainly many others) for the organization of this event, @push- & @yerbearserker for being the best conferences buddies, @uriana, @floc and @tinyrainboot for adding some non-felt-pen traits to the bust, @firmjeff & @bigeon for the dry humor and booming business and @victoctero who allowing me to get my hands on that amazing mug! Personally can't wait for the next farcon already ๐
