“The Prime Meridians came about as an accident: a bug in my code reduced the palette to a single colour, but it looked so stunning that I decided to make it into a series of its own.” - Matt DesLauriers

Closing Thoughts

Prime Meridian on the move! The private nature of the deal from Sotheby’s to Curated leaves room to speculate on the specifics. How might we gauge this? Take Fidenza Spirals (yes, there are more Spirals, but they’re also highly regarded). Peak Spiral trading range was 320-350, and we recently saw one move for 100 ETH. Apply similar drawdown math to your Prime Meridians, which very roughly had a peak middle ground of 145. You get a 40 ETH ballpark.

Strong release from Fingerprints. Relatively normal day elsewhere with diverse activity and volume. Themes and Variations surged back into the report, a not often moved /15 edition from the Nifty Gateway glory days - Parrodious Jonathewo - changed hands, and a particularly stunning Synthetic Dreams by Refik Anadol sold.

Incoming Thursday:

1:00pm ET - The Future of Art X Spaces with Pablo Fraile!
