Seller recognizes that files sent virtually may have additional compression added. Collectors are encouraged to retain a full, tangible archival package for this work, which can be requested from bitforms at the time of purchase and may include: external drives containing the work, lossless, uncompressed, high resolution video codecs, exhibition copies, technical artist questionnaire, manual, and a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. In lieu of the full archival package, collectors are encouraged to download and preserve the digital collector’s package on at least two external hard drives of their choice, stored in two separate geographic locations. Files should be migrated to new external hard drives every 3-5 years. Pinning As of 2021, unless the associated files are pinned on IPFS, they are not guaranteed to remain accessible. IPFS regularly deletes files that aren’t pinned. To maintain the Qm hash/CID on IPFS, you as the collector will need to “pin” the purchased files if the value of the associated NFT on the Ethereum blockchain is of importance. The best way to ensure your purchase remains pinned on IPFS is to take the Qm hash (CID) included in the JSON file, as well as the CID associated with the JSON itself, and add it to a pinning service account, such as Pinata or Fleek. Make sure all associated CIDs are pinned, which will also include the JSON itself. The JSON CID will be under the NFT Token URI. For questions, contact bitforms gallery. Although redundancy of this package is possible through IPFS, collectors are also encouraged to store files through alternative methods, such as the external drive method mentioned above. About The Purchase: The Token ID points to a JSON that references both the preview still of the video and a collector’s package that contains the exhibition copy of the video. Collectors can contact bitforms gallery or Casey Reas’ studio for a complete archival package of the work, including an artist questionnaire and DPX files. Display: Collectors should be mindful of all components included in this package, so that they may avoid distorting the work. Under no circumstances can the file(s) contents be edited. Collector acknowledges that if they do not reach out to bitforms or Casey Reas' studio, future estate, or archive for the archival package, they may not be receiving work at its highest quality output.
