SZN7 of The Memes by 6529 launches with 7-minute artwork ‘BUIDL(ING) PATIENCE’ by Ix Shells. 329 editions sell out at 0.06529 ETH, followed by an active secondary with 58 sales, floor: 0.1399 ETH.
Via Ix Shells:
“[The artwork] is a way to reconnect with an open world game which continues to evolve, a pattern of growth guiding me back to the roots of these shells. This is the reason why i love to spend countless hours tweaking a program and finding similarities with the world around me; while mim•icking the nature of randomness.”
Three Fever Dreams
Trio of Summer Wagner ‘Midamerican Fever Dream’ artworks - 2 NFTs and 1 physical - are collected by Mr.Spacely for 24.2 ETH. Each revolves around the character Ernest.
Commenting on the final physical-only piece ‘Surrender to Sweet Clover’, Eli Scheinman states:
“Ernest’s story in Midamerican Fever Dream ends at the beginning of a new journey, or rather, the call to one.”

The XCOPY collection of Punk4945 continues its expansion with ‘BANGERS AND CRASH’ /25 for 19 WETH.
Is there a next target? Glad you asked. A 100 WETH offer is in and active on ‘The Other Deadness’, a 1/1 minted in June, 2020 and owned by jPeggyGiffenheim.

Closing Thoughts
While overall volume across chains was depressed, the art space stayed active with diverse highlights across 1/1, 1/1/X, and editions. Three Summer Wagner sales came in just before the bell to spice it all up. Could we see that 1/1 XCOPY offer from Punk4945 get accepted?
As we dig into the NFT NYC trenches this week, remember if a Substack is not published there will still be 24 Hours of Art across X/Twitter and an abbreviated version on Warpcast. Yes, it’s true, I’m committing to the latter. Connect with me there @rogerdickerman.
