Any number of reasons could be to blame, but it\u2019s likely a mix of fear (related market volatility and equivocating DeFi with NFTs), a lack of web3 savvy, and the fact that owning a digital file does not carry the same aura or presence as a physical good.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For art appreciators who aren\u2019t avid collectors, locking up art on a website one must visit to view that art probably does not <em>feel<\/em> like owning the art at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is reasonable to imagine a person with shelves full of art books and a calendar full of gallery and museum visits who also has no interest in the market activity of buying and selling art. But this art lover would still enjoy owning a number of pieces they love. This profile of an art lover might sit squarely in the \u201cright-click + save\u201d camp of crypto art doubters, even if they deeply enjoy digital art.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Unlockable NFTs through MakersPlace\u2019s newest release open a real path to reaching these audiences while also giving artists the opportunity to differentiate themselves and stand out in the crowded market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Below are ten ideas you can use to add to collectors\u2019 experiences when shopping for your work.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prints<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the most obvious offer: prints.

class=\"wp-block-heading\">Special Access &amp; Bonus Content<\/h2>\n<p>Unlockable NFTs don\u2019t have to redeem in the real world. You could also create any imaginable kind of digital content exclusively for your collectors. These could be behind-the-scenes videos, new artwork, music, or a private metaverse.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, you could set up a private Discord server, give pre-sale access to upcoming drops, or hold exclusive IRL events. If you\u2019re not the IRL event type, you could collaborate with another artist (like a musician or dancer) whose work is more conducive to a live audience and give collectors access through the work they\u2019ve purchased from you.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparatory Sketches<\/h2>\n<p>If you don\u2019t have a finished physical piece, you might have preparatory sketches and initial visual research. Collectors and art lovers might take an interest in your sketches for the insight such materials give into the creative process or to get background on early ideations of something they love.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Such pieces have become priceless to art historians with regard to classical painting and beyond. In the case of digital art, even if your output is solely digital, delivering a physical component that shows ideation with physical tools could go a long way in humanizing your artistic process.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Books<\/h2>\n<p>Monographs, small art books, chapbooks, poetry, short stories \u2014 all of it is possible and largely untested.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you do a large-scale series, a simple art book for anyone owning a piece from the series would be a big differentiator. Artists might pair up with writers for essays, poetry, or short stories to complement the artwork. Comic artists have a logical inroad here. And motion designers and filmmakers might use the above-mentioned AR strategy to a more ambitious effect with an entirely digitally augmented book.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Artist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sutueatsflies.com\/art\/prosthetic-reality\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sutu<\/a> \u2014 in collaboration with <a href=\"http:\/\/codeoncanvas.cc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Code on Canvas<\/a> and 45 artists and sound designers from around the world \u2014 recently released <em>Prosthetic Reality<\/em>, an Augmented Reality Art book paired with the <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/eyejack\/id1163248223?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EyeJack app<\/a>, which brings to life each artwork with animation and sound.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Unlockables also provide a clear pathway for crypto-curious poets and writers, who might pair original artwork or excerpts sold as an NFT with the physical book or downloadable e-reader files.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Prosthetic Reality - An Augmented Reality Art Book by EyeJack\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/199098036?h=8d71ab983a&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scents &amp; Perfumes<\/h2>\n<p>Olfactory art, multi-sensory work, and independent perfumers haven\u2019t had any presence in web3 for obvious reasons, but we\u2019re hopeful this will soon change. Though far less well-known even in the traditional art world, infusing an installation or exhibit with smell or even creating standalone olfactory exhibits has been a growing trend over the last two decades.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/artandolfaction.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Institute for Art and Olfaction<\/a> is one organization championing such works as well as offering workshops and other educational opportunities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Unlockable NFTs provide a new opportunity for scent artists to get their work into the world and an interesting pathway to collaboration for visual artists working in web3 who\u2019d like to make their work more visceral and multi-sensory.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mystery Boxes<\/h2>\n<p>Maybe you\u2019ve got your hands in lots of pots with a handful of brand partnerships or collaborations. Maybe you\u2019ve got such a massive backlog of sketches and paintings that you suspect your significant other of plotting to put them in the oven to make room for guests. Maybe you dabble in something bananas that you\u2019d love to shoehorn into your artistic practice.<\/p>\n<p>If such a thing were true, you might find a venue for such an abundance by creating mystery boxes for collectors, a cornucopian collection that will land you a certain special type of fame and recognition: the unboxing video.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Endless Possibilities<\/h2>\n<p>These are just a few ideas that crypto artists could pursue in building a stand-out body of work and career.
