Steve Aoki will be launching a stop-motion series, Dominion X, on the blockchain in collaboration with Seth Green’s Stoopid Buddy Studios.
Cryptocurrencies, the blockchain, and NFTs are quickly taking over, not just in the investment sphere but the entertainment industry as well. Artists and producers alike have jumped on the trend to monetize and distribute exclusive content. Joining the ranks is Steve Aoki, who with Seth Green’s Stoopid Buddy Stoodios will release the first-ever episodic series on the blockchain, Dominion X.
The studio known for the hit TV show Robot Chicken on Adult Swim re-introduces Character X who first appeared in Aoki’s first NFT Dream Catcher. This stop-motion animation series will be set to Aoki’s original score and features handmade characters and sets from Stoopid Buddy Stoodios.
Dominion X launches Sunday, August 2 on Nifty Gateway. Fans will get a chance to buy physical and digital pieces of the show off the NFT marketplace before its premiere. Limited edition and 1-of-1 digital vignettes will be available for exclusive sale. Each NFT will come with a card with surprise, interactive functionality that will be revealed to owners after their purchase. These cards will allow owners to collect NFTs and physical pieces from the show.
I first met Seth and the team at Stoopid Buddy Stoodios when I was invited to do a cameo on Robot Chicken back in 2015. Ever since then we’ve been trying to find another chance to work together. The idea of launching the first ever ‘TV’ series on the blockchain really excited me. We realized that through NFT’s we can combine the traditional stop-motion animation that Stoopid Buddy Stoodios is known for with innovative fan driven concepts that I’m passionate about: collectibles, community building and gaming. And I love the fact that we’ve been able to bring Character X, a creature that literally personifies me, to life in a completely new world with new characters & new adventures.
