My guest today is digital artist Elispri. He is the reigning KING OF MEMES for a reason. His works are not only funny, but subversive and clever. Elispri takes the essence of web3 events and turns them into memorable pieces of art that are writing crypto history. He takes traditional and digital art and infuses it with 21st century meme culture, creating a whole new playing field where he defines his own rules. Elispri's work is not only about entertainment. He wants to make you think about the world we live in and the role of art in it as one of the most powerful means of communication.

We talk about why memes are a universal language and what inspired him to pick up the digital pen. Elispri also gives great advice for new artists in the space and how they can protect themselves from the whims of centralized platforms.

Oh, and we learn interesting facts about one of the densest materials on earth: tungsten. 😉
