I originally had an idea for a piece depicting me in my death bed and several collectors (even the doctors) standing over me, waiting for me to die so they can 1000x their investment by selling my art. I then tweeted out this tweet . Trill ended up dm ’ing me that he wants to buy this piece and doesn ’t want any context about the art which sounded very exciting.

I knew what the art was going to be so I then decided we will add a button and give him the option to actually kill me and pull the plug. Little did anyone know, we ( yungwknd and I) coded it up to where as soon as Trill pulled the plug and signed the transaction, the art would automatically be sent to the burn address. Trill had no idea this would happen, so hats off to him for risking it.

This below is how Trill and everyone saw the art for the first time.

I listed the art for 100 ETH private sale to Trill and as soon as he bought it, the first stage of the art revealed itself into this (below)

“is he dead yet ”

This (above) is how Trill first saw the updated piece, and dm ’d me asking “I ’m supposed to kill you??”lol. To which I replied, “yes, just trust me ”. If you ’ll notice, the collector on the left along with the two doctors were waiting for me to die so they can sell my art for 1000x. Death is playing Beethoven ’s “Piano Sonata #14 ”(moonlight sonata) and has the Ethereal Rose with him which he stole from VVD

After he pulled the plug and murdered me for profit (lol), the piece instantly and automatically transferred out of his wallet and to the burn address, while updating to a new piece of art (below)

“Congratulations, YOU killed ACK ”
this is the “unplug ”function that called for the token to be burned automatically when Trill signed the txn to “unplug ”and murder me. etherscan

As you can see in the updated piece above, Death left the scene, taking with him the Ethereal Rose. The collector and the doctors all sold my art for 1000x profit and were celebrating by drinking a glass of “NGMI“.

I left a few clues about my return in the scene, one being the clock rotating for 3 days worth of time. (see above)

When I died, my twitter died along with me, and so did the Ethereal Rose and T il Death Do Us Part .

All the was left of the Rose when I died
the Rose disappeared from here as well.

3 days later on my irl birthday, the Muse resurrected me and the art from the dead address

Automatically upon revival, the art changed into the final scene here below

ROI
This is the first ever piece of art to be sold, burned and revived. You can see the historical provenance here on Opensea .

The Muse herself is what brought me and the art back from the dead as you can see here

After being revived, my twitter was restored and so was the Ethereal Rose and Til Death do us part.

Here is the context of the story behind the art.

“The Muse triumphantly revives Alpha Centauri Kid (ACK) and their art from the dead address, but not without sacrifice …Only death can pay for life …Three lives must be exchanged for the art, ACK, and the Ethereal Rose, which Death spitefully took for himself.

You see, Death, whom has been in love with the Muse for thousands of years (without reciprocation) sought to take revenge on her by killing her beloved ACK. Although cunning, Death did not realize the depths at which the Muse would go to rescue him and their creations. The rules of the blockchain were broken when the Muse revived ACK and their art from the dead, leaving Death defeated and alone once again.

The collector is forgiven of any wrongdoing as they were merely a piece in Death ’s puzzle of revenge. Long live The Muse.”

Thank you for being apart of this journey with me and giving me a space to tell stories and evoke emotion with my art. This story is not quite over, come Valentine ’s Day we will see a new piece that is tied in with this series and I can ’t wait to release it. Will either be on SuperRare or on my ACK contract like the art above. Thank you for reading and for learning more about this project.
