Notes from the show

Jackie, aka Graffito, a cybersecurity professional and artist, shares her journey from the world of cybersecurity to web3 art. She started in the hacker community, exploring the boundaries of technology and pushing the limits. After working in cybersecurity and consulting for large companies, she felt a disconnect between her work and her desire to create meaningful and valuable contributions. This led her to explore art and storytelling, using her technical knowledge to create AI-generated videos and digital art. She finds satisfaction in pushing boundaries and creating work that leaves people wondering how it was made.


We also discuss Jackies creative process and the tools they use to create AI-generated artwork. They emphasize the importance of starting with basic tools and gradually learning and experimenting with new techniques. Graffito also highlights the value of receiving feedback and encouragement from the community, which motivates them to continue creating.

The conversation concludes with a discussion about camping and the possibility of organizing an event in Puerto Rico.
