B1I5Z envisions a near future where humans exist within digital and quantum-forged realities, with imagination as the only true limitation. In this future, the physical has become sacred—its artefacts treasures, relics of an old reality. In an age of radical abundance and deep utopia, money is obsolete.
Inspired by this vision and the barter economy in his novel CREAM, B1I5Z created the Barter Place—a space with no fixed prices, only offers, haggles, and creative exchanges. New items will be added regularly, and B1I5Z hopes to expand this into a collaborative project with other artists, bringing their work into the Barter Place.
Every object received through the Barter Place may become part of a future gallery exhibition—an evolving, living archive of traded artefacts, mapping the dawn of a new creative economy. ❤️
