I partnered with eight-time Grammy-winning producer Scott Storch on Evolution — his first NFT collection released April 20, 2021 on Nifty Gateway as part of the platform’s landmark 4/20 drop (covered by Forbes and Business Insider).

The collection paired Storch’s original music with motion graphics and illustration I created. In the studio I recorded his hand performance with motion capture as he played iconic material — including the piano/hand vocabulary behind tracks like “Cry Me a River” and Still D.R.E. — then overlaid that mocap with custom visuals so the physical act of making the music is locked into the work.

Storch also produced custom music for the drop. Together we treated NFTs as a release medium: music + image + performance data, sold direct on Nifty Gateway outside a traditional label cycle.
