so here's something I think is important for the space are you willing to share the financials of the deal? I've seen so much of this kind of museum acquisition stuff going on lowkey behind the scenes and in the spirit of transparency, I think it's important to discuss this

With immense joy and a profound sense of honor, I announce the acquisition of Refik Anadol ‘s — Machine Hallucinations — MoMA' by MoMA The Museum of Modern Art. This pivotal moment has been made possible through the generous contribution by the #RFCCollection, led by Desiree Casoni and myself, alongside 1OF1 , spearheaded by Ryan Zurrer. This acquisition not only marks a grand milestone in Refik's remarkable journey but also inscribes a historic chapter in modern art, as MoMA welcomes the first tokenized artwork into its esteemed permanent collection. 'Unsupervised' transcends a digital installation; it's a visionary expedition into the core of artistic evolution, employing generative artificial intelligence to reinterpret and reimagine over two centuries of MoMA’s rich artistic archive. Through this pioneering venture, Refik orchestrates a mesmerizing dance of data aesthetics with emotive narratives, creating a living tapestry of art that breathes and evolves with environmental stimuli on a grand media wall, unveiling new visual forms and narrating a captivating tale of art's dynamic journey. The exhibition has resonated across the global art scene, captivating audiences of diverse backgrounds and elevating digital art into broader realms of recognition. 'Unsupervised' unfolds into a profound reflection on technology's role in augmenting the creative process, resonating deeply with today’s global audience. The blockchain tokenization of 'Unsupervised' exemplifies a harmonious blend of the digital and traditional realms of artistry. It underscores the evolving tale of digital ownership, ushering in a new era where digital art finds a venerable home amidst iconic traditional art collections. This venture, gracefully facilitated by the #RFCCollection and #1OF1, not only elevates the stature of digital art but also paves the path for future generations of artists and collectors, broadening the horizon for the acceptance and recognition of tokenized digital art within traditional art institutions. Refik Anadol's journey in digital artistry stands out as a reference of innovation and exploration. His visionary approach, coupled with an enduring dedication, marks him as a trailblazer truly deserving of leading the charge in this novel artistic frontier. Each artistic endeavor by Refik resonates through the wider digital art landscape, igniting a spark of inspiration among the community and welcoming a bright and promising future for digital artistry on a global stage
