NFT campaign for Catch-42: A novel about our future

The book's cover

Catch-42's unique story starts with the book's cover, which is the result of a collaboration between Australian digital and crypto artist Nate Hill, Catch-42's author, Felix Holzapfel, and Thomas Wolff from lamoto design studio. The target of this collaboration is to highlight the opportunities for nonfungible tokens (NFT) and blockchain technology in the creative and publishing industries—and beyond.

STEP #1 (OVER) STEP #2 (NEXT) ABOUT CATCH-42

Felix Holzapfel

Author Catch-42

I expect self-publishers and small indie publishers to be the first to take advantage of the new opportunities and associated benefits of NFTs. Large companies will have to follow very carefully and quickly if they want to avoid the market shifting to their disadvantage.

Nate Hill

Digital and crypto artist

I love a good story. I also love to create imagery that can speak to people in it's own way. When Felix approached me and told me about his story, we both felt that there was a wonderful synergy between my art and his words.

Thomas Wolff

lamoto design studio

NFTs unleashes a new type of creativity and offer plenty of exciting opportunities—for me as an artist and our clients at lamoto design studio across various industries. Thus, I'm happy to be a part of this extraordinary project.
