#DAMbook is currently traveling the world. Each artist gets a blank page to draw, paint, collage, add photos to, type, and/or share code etc. Once the artist finishes their page they send the book off to an artist of their choosing.
#DAMbook has traveled over 10,000 miles so far.
DAM is a decentralized art zine focused on creation, community, discovery and collecting. We release issues on a regular basis. All artists are welcome! See how it works.

DAM is
DAM celebrates decentralized art. DAM encourages artistic freedom. DAM fosters collaboration, connection, and co-creation. DAM experiments with new models of art-making and collecting. DAM is decentralized in its creation, distribution, and discovery. DAM is where artists own their work. DAM is where artists price and sell their work how they want. DAM is blockchain- and platform-agnostic—it's everywhere and anywhere. DAM is assembled by collecting individual pages from the issue's artists.
THIS IS AN AWESOME INITIATIVE, HOW CAN I HELP SUPPORT THE EFFORT?
DAM asks contributors to consider giving a small royalty to DAM's wallet when they mint. Some artists have made DAM a collaborator on pieces while others have tipped directly.
This all helps offset design, curation and logistics. Proceeds also go to collecting art for DAM’s permenat vault. It’s a give what you want or can.
