Signal Hacker

This artwork brings to life Max Headroom, an iconic character from the 1980s, known as the first signal hacker on television. Max embodies the era's exploration of digital identity, serving as a symbol for media hijacking aimed at questioning the authenticity of information presented to the public. The piece prompts viewers to reflect on their own media consumption: What kind of information is traveling through our data connections, and how much of it can we trust as real? The digital artwork is minted on the Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-721. Ownership enables the token owner to claim the physical version.
