My Digital Journey Story as Designer and Artist: 1998-2021
I’m just a slow burn This 2021 because of the pandemic lockdowns I took the plunge and dropped my very first NFT artwork on blockchain and sold my first collectible in less than 24 hours. It took me quite a while to get here as artist and designer.

2000 - design and information architecture for the websites of an international multilateral development bank and an art institution
2002 - President of the Philippines two executive orders: start of design system standardisation and digitalisation of the National Coats of Arms for the bureaucracy and a new state decoration and award protocol
2007 - joined twitter to post musings on art and design
2008 - my first art blogs and meme works (“Philippine Mythopoeia” for blogger, later “mentisflatus” for tumblr)
2008 - content development, design, social media + website ecosystem for an art institution
