In this episode, Carly’s talking to the 1st black woman to pilot a spacecraft into orbit & the 1st person to run an NFT auction from space—the inspirational—Dr. Sian Proctor. She also recently launched an illustrated book called, “Space 2 Inspire: The Art of Inspiration by Dr. Proctor,” which is a 22 item 1/1 NFT project with AR components that launched on 2/22/22.
And if you weren’t awestruck already, Dr. Proctor comes on Overpriced JPEGs to discuss all of the above and also all things Afrofuturism, how to make the NFT space more diverse, how to overcome imposter syndrome, her advice for artists trying to break into the space—AND—her favorite black NFT artists you need to follow asap!
