Creator Spotlight

Supersigil’s just launched on Bonfire! As an interdisciplinary artist, composer, producer and guitarist, Supersigil (aka Alex Roth) is working on an ambitious series of NFT collections that will live within a virtual world as characters, music, sigils, and much more.

As he says, Spectres, in essence, is “immersive music theatre for the metaverse era” resulting in a multidimensional album with 13 songs that can be explored virtually. Having quickly sold out the first series, the project is now in its second series and you can still mint!
