Layer Canvas Is Revolutionizing How Digital Art Is Displayed
"Like Icarus flying too close to the sun, the NFT market went boom and bust in just a few years time. Regardless of its over-estimation and lofty ambitions, the form - iterative digital art - continues to thrive as an ever growing array of techniques and applications. The problem, however, is how to display this often iterative and interactive work in an accessible fashion."
"Versatile in how it's hung or mounted, the 41.7 by 41.7 inch device (43 by 43 inches with a frame) features environmental light sensors and bluetooth presence direction. Staying as true to the vast variety of work that might be exhibited, the segmented yet seamless screen emits ultra-resolution. Color is another important factor that was carefully calibrated. Canvas presents true black - a tone that few of today's most advanced computers of TV screens can replicate. It also produces P3 color and is GPU powered. The closest possible translation of depth and clarity is also achieved."
""Digital artists are feeling pain," Sotiracopoulos says. "NFTs have collapsed, Al is threatening craftsmanship as well as undermining fundamental copyright. After decades of working alongside [many of them], I wanted to honor their work and bring it into the real world, into people's homes and lives, and see that the artists get paid.""
The NFT market surged then collapsed within a few years, yet iterative digital art continues to expand across techniques and applications. Layer introduced Canvas, a seamless multi-screen device positioned between a TV and a hung painting with a curated rotation of work. The device measures 41.7 by 41.7 inches (43 by 43 with frame) and includes environmental light sensors and Bluetooth presence direction. A segmented yet seamless ultra-resolution screen reproduces true black, supports P3 color, and is GPU powered to maximize depth and clarity. Canvas omits microphones, speakers, and integrated cameras. Angelo Sotiracopoulos established Layer to bring digital art into homes and ensure artists receive payment amid NFT collapse and AI-related copyright concerns.
