HumaNFT:  The First Human NFT Launches Today

Tuesday June 1st, 2021 Woodstock, NY.  Creative Director, Floyd Hayes today launches the HumaNFT Project, putting himself up for auction via Rarible as the world’s first Human Non Fungible Token (NFT).

“I’m putting myself up for auction as a performance experiment.  The winning auction bidder can use my talents as they see fit, for one month.  Anything goes within the parameters of legality and safety.”

Hayes has previously sold his voice on eBay with a project called “VoiceVertising” which was bought by Halls Fruit Breezers and created news headlines across the world.  

The HumaNFT performance concept takes the idea to the next level while exploring the boundaries of what an NFT can be.

Hayes continues, “I’ve been self employed for the past nine years as a Creative Director. With the HumaNFT project I wanted to explore the nature of agency, ownership and technology in the age of the gig-economy, fire-at-will contracts and government economic support.  Do we truly own ourselves?   What happens when we give up control?”

About NFT

A non-fungible token is a unit of data on a digital ledger called a blockchain, where each NFT can represent a unique digital item, and thus they are not interchangeable. NFTs can represent digital files such as art, audio, video, and other forms of creative work.

About Rarible

Rarible is a marketplace for NFTs. It gives a platform to the artists and collectors to create, collect, and trade digital collectibles. Non-fungible tokens put digital artists completely in control over their work, because the ownership is blockchain-managed.
