Digital Being: Building-I, 2023

83 x 53 x 26 inches (210 x 134.5 x 66 cm), CRT TV Monitor, BNC and RCA Connectors, Power Strip, LED Matrix, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and additional components, all arranged on a wood panel

I don’t own a home—
but I have a building.

Building-I isn’t just an artwork. It’s a system—an infrastructure for how video art can persist, like Sol LeWitt’s wall drawings, but for our era of screens and code.

This project offers a new model: 93 unique units, each sold as a bonded pair—NFT + RWA.

  • The NFT secures provenance, royalties, and digital traceability.

  • The RWA grounds the work in physical space and permanence.

  • Together, they form a single entity—inseparable, transferable, and permanently linked.

Royalties from resale support:

  • Long-term care and maintenance of the work

  • Creation of new artworks and future exhibitions

  • The future Taezoo Foundation, dedicated to sustaining these Digital Beings

Over the past decade, Building-I has gradually taken shape as abandoned CCTV monitors found their way, one by one, into a corner of my studio, organically accumulating into a quiet monument. Now, countless electrons (@digitalbeing) inhabit these machines, creating the illusion from afar of a tower once again breathing, like a building brought subtly to life.

To fully realize this vision, collaboration with specialized institutions or platforms that facilitate RWA-backed NFTs is essential, ensuring legal, technical, and logistical support for linking digital tokens to the physical artwork.

Building-I is not just an artwork—it’s a proposal, a collaboration, a challenge: to collectors, curators, technologists, and builders of both machines and meaning. This is how video art endures—into and beyond the digital age.
