The first auction was able to generate even $60 for @ordinalsorg using something I'd drawn. Exciting & vulnerable step. [bottle] just fetched over $400 for @ordinalsorg. Big step once again, and I'm ecstatic about it. ❤️Thanks and congrats to the winner❤️ Onward & upward 💯

What is the Open Ordinals Institute (@ordinalsorg)? It funds open-source development of the ordinals protocol in order to make inscription services accessible to every day people. This is why our auctions currently benefit the fund. Read more @ ordinals.org/about/

Alright enough is enough. I saved enough BTC to probably RBF push the rat out of mempool jail, but it’s all I have, so I’d have to auction the rat after getting the 12 pending reinscriptions out of the way in order to recoup the funds. What do I do?
35% RBF then auction
65% wait it out

Thanks to @itsdonnyok for inviting me to participate in @re__forms. "Petite Theme" is officially my first artwork on Bitcoin, and it's a reinscription of his third piece "Speaker". The idea was to turn the drawing into audio+visual music in a small file size. 74KB Ordinal 🎵🙌📺

I (@itsdonnyok) hit my face on the ground at about 70mph in the year 2000. The day after my accident I could barely play the piano when I had been performing the piano with orchestras for years prior. In 2016 a SPECT scan revealed my temporal lobes were inactive.

From one chronic reinscriber to another 🫡❤️
Thank you @re_forms for this beautiful gift. “Once”: on one occasion or for one time only. Life's a bit like enjoying a good cup of coffee; embrace it for what it brings, So, I’m soaking up the vibes, crafting my own story, and turning these days into something legendary.

So the rat was passed around to friends to show the mandatory lack of control for dynamics of quality and content. There's a release schedule & process. I hope people continue to pass them around and scribble shit on them for the rest of my life and longer. No rules.

I remember that I did something, but I can't remember doing it. I can't picture my wife in my head, but I can kinda describe her to others because I roughly know a list of characteristics she has.

As an informal team-building exercise at a restaurant at which my wife and I used to work, everyone was asked to draw themselves if they were a rat. People drew bikers, smokers, & video game +100xp rats. Incredible and full of character. Mine looked vapid and really stood out.

When anyone else views this blank rat, their brains can't help but fill in those details. No one can forget all of the rats they've seen, so their additions to the rat are inherently colored by everything they've ever experienced. I'll never fundamentally understand this.

DEETS I’m drawing 69 Forms in order to use this handicap to run an experiment w/digital art. Each Friday until December 2024, a form will be released to an artist or buyer. Sharpie on printer paper. Scanned and inscribed. No special sats. No distinguishing features.

People won't reinscribe on anything they value or anything they don't, so I think providing this express permission to scribble on a collection is really important to get a handle on what this might mean to us and for the Bitcoin arts community.

I inscribed the rat and drew a bunch more forms to see how many other ways this project could allow people to express themselves while exploring the concept of reinscription by providing a platform with full permission to scribble absolutely anything on it any holder wanted to.

PROCESS Only the holder at the time can re-inscribe onto the satoshi. We can tell a story in aggregate as a series of owners, all inscribe our take on an image, topic, or story, and explore multimedia expression immutably and in tandem.

From my understanding, there are two forms of long-term memory we can form: declarative and procedural.

MONEY I don’t dislike [money], but this isn’t about personal gain. This is about exploring a new technology, onboarding new artists to Bitcoin and supporting the pre-existing, and observing a social experiment regarding ownership, movement, and story.

ME I hit my head on the ground in the winter of 2000 and lost the ability to form declarative long-term memory. I can remember that I did something, but not being present doing it. I know I ate pizza, I can’t picture the pizza, but I know generally what pizza looks like.

RE-INSCRIPTION Re- inscription allows for new inscriptions to be added to a satoshi atop the initial— creating a series of linked items that travel together ad-infinitum. These ordinals travel together wherever the initial satoshi goes, and none of them can be over-written.

When I see her, it's like recognizing a door. Except instead of a door, its another instance of "Breanna". Different shirt, different hair, but that's a Breanna. This goes for everything. My car. My bedroom. My phone. I can't picture any of them in my head. No textures or colors.

For years after the accident I felt separate from everyone else. I didn't enjoy camping, holidays, and any other such common traditions, as most of them require memory to appreciate. We teach one another the importance of these rituals over time.

FORM The “Form” of an item refers to the base layer of recognizable traits that allows each individual instance of the item to exist. We know a chair when we see one, but what do all chairs have in common? This is the Form of chair.

CHOICE Since only the current holder can re-inscribe, the methods by which this change of ownership occurs is of interest. Sell? Donate? Pass around a group? Keep forever and charge others to add inscriptions?

When I draw a rat, I'm not drawing a specific rat because I can't conjure one in my head. So I'm drawing essentially a rat thats as rat-like as one can be without developing any specific features or characteristics. The baseline. The form.

2. Procedural allows you to recognize every door you see and innately know how to operate it, even if you haven't seen that specific door before. Basically it stores forms of items and processes, in a way. This is the only kind of memory I can form.

1. Declarative allows you to sift through a filing cabinet in your head and pull out the file when asked to answer "what did you have for dinner last night". You can find the image and see it in your head. Pizza. With mushrooms. It was the following shades of color.
