Transcript

hi guys some familiar faces um I'm alio founder co-founder of haa Gallery we've been a gallery for good part of 14 years now and in 2018 we were the first gallery to accept 26 different cryptocurrencies um it was very avanguard back then in 2019 we started tokenizing art via nfts and in 2020 we launched a ho.io our marketplaces recently we have sold uh the largest nft collection of the last three years uh refik Canal Winds of yawa Nawa some of you maybe heard of this um it was also a fundraising drop and achieved over $36 million in sales in the last 6 months and we are here to present a new project around deep in and a use case particularly for art Hospitality our project is called emotion and it intends to create a deeper connection with users by offering personalized curated and rewarding digital art experiences and also well-being experiences while powering its own iot focused node Network so for those that don't know so much about deepin we we've created an AI powered device that will be um actually designed in collaboration with Ross lovegrove uh who's one of the legendary designers of uh Sony Walkman he's also designed uh Apple Computers uh he's on board as leading design team this is our first mockup and um something we've created in order to present the project here today and as you plug in the emotion device you can pair it via smartphone tablet computer it can stream it can access your collections but more importantly it can reward you and um this is where it gets really interesting um I'm sure a lot of you know um recent Museum Acquisitions um at MoMA uh by refik canol and sugan Chang at the VNA show a clear um path towards uh institutions collecting uh generative and datadriven art and the big issue um or or interesting challenge for this is that Ai and datadriven art requires a lot of GPU power so with the Advent of this um there's a large demand uh of GPU power which is the foundation of of artificial intelligence so with emotion we've created a platform that's Aid driven and that it's able to drive content and it's trained by a net network of leading curators so as a gallery we've onboarded some of the best galleries institutions and curators to create a program of art that can be accessible and can be streamed um globally and this also on boards a a strict program of royalties similarly to Spotify and um we'll tell you a little bit more about our node sale we have a big node sale happening um with a target of over 4 million and that's happening next month so for those of you that are interested please check out emotion emtn and um this is a little bit about our history what we've done in our time um we've been featured in some of the most important Publications globally um as I mentioned earlier we started our journey as early as 2018 on boarding um artists and and and sort of on boarding you know also new collectors in the generative art in the nft space and um we've achieved a pretty tremendous success in this thanks to the incredible support of the artists and the collectors from all around the world and I wanted to talk a little bit about also the the use case in the hospitality sector um so the hospitality sector we see our device being also as a sensor because it's a very private device it does not record audio it does not have a camera but it captures data which is in your hands it is on chain and as you're powering our node you're also able to win rewards our credit for streaming our content which is curated by some of the most important curators from around the world in our team we have a pretty spectacular team um you know big big round of applause for sug and Chang she's won last month uh the time 100 um in in a very man driven world that is the world of crypto and and and AI sugan has graduated at MIT and has been the most awarded um not only artist but actual individual um in AI she's on board on our team um we've worked for many years with Denny uh one of the most incredible blockchain and web 3 developers um we've recently onboarded Yan Shar who's a a leader in iot from Switzerland and you know our team season team from Jay Harry who did the SpaceX drop um recently of refik anadol important memory for Humanity and a recent drop of uh Winds of yawanawa um which um fundraised over $3 million for the Amazon rainforest um so it was something exceptional where web 3 and nfts have been used to actually create and sustain you know and really support these indigenous tribes and um this is emotion if you have any questions um I know we have U another few minutes um I wanted to sort of go back onto the device and show you a little bit more in depth perhaps um about our device and what it can really do what's really interesting is as you connect the device it acts similarly to a chomecast so it's able to stream content that's been carefully curated and at the same time as you're powering our Cloud note you are rewarded but the most interesting thing is obviously a royalty model and the fact of how I mentioned the device can be used in Hospitality in museums to better monitor user habits and behaviors and what we doing thanks to my colleagues at at Hua Gallery we've created a foundation that's going to support to gentrify um you know po areas where we're going to place large sculptural installations with our deep in device in it so as viewers view physical installations of art they are rewarded so this is going to generate a large influx and interest in communities to visit U installations of public card and as you are in the place the device is able to Monitor and you're able to scan and admit and create a Synergy and that's going to reward you personally through our emotion token and our emotion token is going to be launched uh by the end of this year and the device is going to be made available by q1 and this is the only way you can Farm our emotion token by having this device or by being on board it in our VC program and I mentioned earlier you know Ross lerve is actually based here out of Dubai he's an absolute Legend and he's going to be leading our design um team and the device is full integrated with open AI apis to enhance our blockchain infrastructure on a layer one of ethereum so if you guys have any questions I think we have about a few minutes left um any questions from anyone where to buy device where to buy the device there's a node sale happening next month and it's going to be on emotion emtn doai so we have a node sale um we've made available 5,000 devices um made available via a simple nft mint we work on five different chains which is pretty exceptional so Bitcoin ethereum BMB polygon Solana so we're working with some of the major launchpads such as uh selenium magic heeden so you'll be able to very easily mint um you'll be able to connect your wallet and claim the device for free because you've basically paid for the node which comes with the device and this will be a very limited edition device and as you claim um of course the early buyers get to have an incentive and the price will start at $600 and it will increment every hundred pieces it will go up to end more or less around $1,000 at the end and you know so if you're familiar with any of the launchpads um selenium uh worked recently on The Ether um launch of of their node sale which I believe touched about 100 million doar um so it's pretty exceptional we've worked with magic Heen since as far back as 2021 and um we have a a strong collaboration with them and yes so this is this is us in a nutshell but do you guys have any other questions at all excuse me to buy it hi hi oh yeah it's working uh if there would be an opportunity to buy it in the future for Fiat like uh for the hotel for the spa for like any venue that is not familiar to crypto absolutely I mean we always have our Apple pay system in integration in everything we do so with two clicks on on your phone um you don't require a wallet to acquire any of our nfts that we have launched in the last two years we have Apple pay we also of course uh bank with uh seba bank now called Amina so we accept Fiat and can convert in several cryptocurrencies but as a as an end user to answer your question you don't require crypto you don't require a wallet to engage with anything that we do in our program or anything that we do with regards to emotion and I strongly agree with you there's a strong use case for museums for galleries um to use our device to better understand behaviors of their customers and to have a a very strong reporting tool um that can be used to better serve content so us as a gallery um based in London you know and and traveling so much we're so interested to know how many people came through the door uh which artwork did they really engage the most with is it a digital one is it a physical one is it a sculpture uh what happened you know the device is able to to distinguish on what's happening around temperature motion and and this is really interesting for for for a gallery owner like like myself but I think also for large institutions like museums um like Hospitality sector hotels to be able to really monitor uh I mean I was recently with with one of the large groups we we also have the pleasure of working with so house group and Scorpios and and still I feel that the reporting Tools in Hospitality are still quite primitive exactly yes from shopping malls like how do we know how do we better serve um art and particularly digital art in this new world um that is happening that is exploring AI art and datadriven art so yes if you if you don't have any more questions I think I went fast is a train but um thank you so much so um guys yeah please check out um emotion emtn doai if you want further information and um thank you so much
