In January of 2024, the artist sold a unique 1/1 art piece called Sun Blocks to a collector named Michael Taylor  [nft1jus0v904ftn4varpzakhkv5rud20sh4uxqnfl00za24pdp5c662q4y26vg]. 
The royalties for that piece went back to Michael Taylor, as part of the artist's promise to offer the first of five or six sales to Taylor for his work on Data Layer. 
The artist did this to celebrate the work of builders. 
In an unexpected turn of events, the artist some weeks later made the point in a group chat on the internet that 10k collections and memes were largely marketing and financial schemes to make money. This was not meant to be a denigration of anyone in any community, but to be simply an observation that there is a gray area in this NFT category where collectibles, brand culture, and art have fluctuating definitions depending on the context. 
This comment created a landslide of vitriol from one user in the group, who apparently thought that the generalisation was made about him. It was not. The artist was called a few names. 
These events spawned the creation of an open forum on Spaces on Twitter a few moments later, upon which Michael Taylor happened to be speaking. 
The artist was invited to speak. To be clear, the presence of Michael Taylor and the preceding conversation about collectibles and memes had nothing to do with him. 
By a sheer coincidence, the artist, who was asked to clarify his opinions relayed some of these opinions and in a rhetorical fashion asked Michael Taylor what the motivation for creating a 10k collection, in the hopes that he could prove that 10k collections -- in addition to being works of culture and ART -- were attempts to generate income. The model for these collections comes from the degen culture of trading "rare" NFTs and meme art on Ethereum. 
The artist failed miserably in this rhetoric. It appears that a majority of the audience felt that the artist was "shitting" on Michael Taylor, to such point the artist has since confirmed Michael Taylor did not feel that way. 
However, in an odd series of events, Michael Taylor then proceeded to sell "Sun Blocks" for 1 mojo, the lowest possible number you can sell a piece of Chia minted art for, and the community celebrated, allegedly, the lesson that had been taught to the artist, that you must have the support of the community to sell art. 
In the artist's opinion, this was a strange logic. But it now stands as part of the history of art minted on chia.
As a testament to this moment in provenance, the artist has created on paper with vaseline, ink, graphite and sunlight "Shroud of the Collector." 
It is offered for auction.
