Mike Winkelmann has been creating digital art for over two decades. He's 40 years old, lives in South Carolina, and has a computer science degree from Purdue. But this isn't a podcast about Mike Winkelmann. This is a show about Beeple, the name by which Winkelmann is best known, and moreover, the name which took the art world by storm in 2021 when an NFT of Beeple's multi-year project, "Everydays," sold for a record $69.3 million. Still not sure what NFTs are? We'll get to that.
