Behind a keyboard we are all incredible, huge, invincible. We live from this thirst to be right, and the internet allows us to be right all the time. We're right about soccer, about politics, about international affairs, we're right about everything, and even when we're not, being right is just a logoff away, the people that are wrong ( everybody else ) cant take it from us if we're not there, right? On the internet we're all the greatest, this site just wants to demonstrate the fragility of that greatness, For just $1.99 you can have a site that says you're the greatest, your name will be on it forever or until someone thinks they're greater than you. That's how ThisSiteSaysImTheGreatest.com was born (that and because I needed to test the payment system of a project I'm currenlty working on) https://www.thissitesaysimthegreatest.com/ _Tech_ API development reactJs } CryptoJesus ( date Apr/2023 - Lisbon ){ _Description_ CryptoJesus - 42666 All False Gods are real to Someone Evangelists in the BTC community refer to people who bring new members into the realm by educating them about Bitcoin. An evangelist would bring Bitcoin up in a conversation and try to educate everyone about the vision of Satoshi Nakamoto. Symbology is everything, with this piece, the artist constructed a True Cross, where the horizontal bar gets up and down according to Bitcoin values fetched in real time from the internet. Creating this way an always changing TRUE CROSS, that BTC members could look up to, as representing their beliefs. At the BitCoin value of 42666€ , the piece will reach the True Cross dimensions. This piece tries to show that this new “capital” is being lived by its community as a new type of religion. CryptoJesus is part of CryptoGods collection where the Artist connects religious icons with the Crypto Industry in internet connected mechanical pieces. _Tech_ Mechanics API development Javascript } Digital Restoration of Man in the Dark by Milto Manetas{ _Description_ Turn a 1998 flash project into html5 p5.js _Tech_ p5.js javascript http://www.maninthedark.com/ } Piece for the CNAD ( Cabo Verde Design Museum ) permanent collection ( date Aug/2022 - Cabo Verde ){ _Description_ I've designed and built a piece, that is currently on display at the permanent collection _Tech_ Drone footage setup } Multimedia setup for CNAD ( Cabo Verde Design Museum ) ( date Aug/2022 - Cabo Verde ){ _Description_ I've advised and installed the multimedia of the CNAD, cabo verde national museum of design _Tech Advising , buyng , mounting and setting up, including monitors, projectors, Sensors, programming and setup } Vj Software ( date May/2022 - Lisbon ){ _Description_ I've built a VJ software as a 24H project for the finissage of LW10.

The project investigates ideas of collaboration with an Ai and its integration into the artist's practice. Exploring the subject of thinking processes, Damjanski created together with his longtime collaborator, Vasco, an Ai based on all the archived exhibition statements of the MoMA, in New York. The exhibition comprises a headset where people can interact with the Ai to create new exhibition statement that will be delivered by a printer. Each statement is a new source of information that will inform the artist's thinking process. Damjanski compares this process to the biological evolution of genes which is driven by reproduction and survival in order to procreate or grow. _Tech_ Python Tensorflow https://www.oncanal.nyc/damjanski } Uncomfortable Shoes (Date Aug/2018 / Berlin) { _Description_ Commissioned by The Fort Collective, I designed a mechanical pair of shoes, that sited under a curtain and moved randomly and lively with the objective of creating discomfort to the people watching the show... _Tech_ Arduino + CNC controll Mechanics http://www.fortcollective.com/ } Moving Poetry ( Date Maio/2018 Lisbon) { _Descritption_ Commissioned by and Portuguese Artist, I've designed a software that randomly showed very fast several poems on a screen, and when someone was on the room, it slowed down so you could read the poems. _Tech_ Arduino Max Msp } Smart Dialogues @ Pioneer Works Brooklyn NY { _Description_ Software for Artists Day (S4AD) is a conference that aims to dissolve boundaries between artists, technologists, and activists through talks demonstrating unique relationships to digital tooling.
