We are all Satoshi: part 4

in Bitcoin art2 years ago

Today I put in another 6 hours of work, for total of 28h so far. I worked mainly on the second scene of the composition, namely The Silk Road event. As usual I sketched the composition on my draft, and once I got the position and scale of all the figures clear, I started bringing them over the original. I thought a lot whether to illustrate the creation or the collapse of the Silk road. In the end, I decided not to have the scene contain anything specific, but to purely symbolically depict the operation of the site.
The central figure can be conceptualised as Ross Ulbricht, the man who is currently paying a huge price for the creation of the site. He symbolically connects two peers holding their hand, at the moment of exchanging value. In the background are presented other users in the community. Communicating with each other, realizing that Bitcoin works and can be used to exchange value they are amazed by this new technology. The Guy Fawkes masks are in line with the anonymity of all users of the site.

I took a few hours and started working on the 3rd scene. There I placed the creation of the First Bitcoin ATMs. On October 29, 2013, a Robocoin machine opened in the Waves coffee shop in downtown Vancouver, Canada. This machine is understood to be the world's first publicly available Bitcoin ATM. Will be illustrated an exact replica of the design. Around the machine are gathered a group of peers discussing the development of Bitcoin, and one of them will even use the new service offered by Robocin for the first time.
