Maxxed out with MAX CAPACITY

The Artist: MAX CAPACITY

The name of MAX CAPACITY's bio photo is crime+breakfast.png, denoting that the memetic fun runs deeper than surface level. The fetishization of obsolete tech gets the decayed frames rolling. MAX CAPACITY has played with the full breadth of Internet tools since 2008, literally grandpa vibes in terms of the crypto glitch kiddies.

The Collection: MAX CAPACITY 721

Analog glitch hits different and MAX CAPACITY 721 takes us back to those carefree decades of analog VHS video before the new millennium rang. Created with analog video hardware and digital post-processing, MAX CAPACITY tokenizes nostalgia in neon affected pixel decay. Without it, we may memory hole those moments wen our living rooms were first blessed with ray tube lines and hovering ghosted detritus.

A Specific Artwork: Niagara

Niagara. You want it. The name Niagara is derived from the Iroquoian word "Onguiaahra", which is often interpreted as "thunder of waters" or "point of land cut in two." For most collectoors, their glitched out wallets overlook the importance of analog glitch in the pre-crypto evolution of digital art. The tripped out rose petal beamed flow of Niagara can rebalance your glitch thesis to rewind the narrative back to those happy VHS filed video days. 'Niagara' is available in The Line Gift Shop for 0.69 eth.
