DETROIT, MI, UNITED STATES, September 16, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Futuro Nativo, TAS Visuals, and Savej combine strengths to create a one-of-a-kind digital art-music collection and event experience at the official MCON III after-party in Detroit at Tangent Gallery, September 27th starting at 9 pm with musical entertainment till 4 am. This collaboration represents and contributes toward a new paradigm in art and philanthropy; it leverages the power of blockchain technology, showcasing the transformative potential art, music, NFTs, and crypto have in driving social and environmental impact. ONLINE BIDDING is now open, with the live auction starting 24 hours before the official after-party, which promises to be a night to remember. With multi-DJ lineup including the esteemed and NFT collaborator musical artist Savej, who will deliver a powerful live performance and reveal the auction results at Midnight. The funds raised from this special NFT collection will directly impact the Shipibo Community of the Peruvian Amazon. These funds will be used to preserve their unique culture and reforest their lands, which are known for their sacred music, medicines, textiles, and art.

The ONLINE BIDDING link directs to the OpenSea platform where the four digital art pieces are listed as "TAS X Savej Futuro Nativo collection," featuring "Breath of Life," "Plumed Serpent," "Icaro," and "Dragonfly Realm." This collection is a testament to digital mastery and projection mapping, and will be a first-ever NFT ‘drop’ for TAS Visuals. He considers this a way to give back to a community he directly credits for his world acclaim as an artist. Ahead of the opening act, an MC will introduce the Futuro Nativo founder Philippa Attwood, who provided the recordings from deep within the Amazon (with the help of the Shipibo) that Savej uses in the NFT music. The short talk by Ms. Attwood will provide an opportunity for after-party attendees to learn how their bids amplify the Shipibo community through the work of Futuro Nativo.

Interested bidders have the opportunity to place offers on the individual art-music pieces or the full collection. The limited-edition 4-piece NFT collection is a unique collaboration. Each piece offers supporters a chance to own a TAS exclusive digital art piece and to contribute to Futuro Nativo's mission of protecting Nature through reforestation and fostering a deeper connection between the Western world and Indigenous cultures.
