The World Today is a project where 138 world-class, established and emerging photographers from all 5 continents were brought together by Obscura DAO to take the 1st global visual timestamp of the 21st century. This ended up as a collection of 13,800 native 1/1 NFT photographs of cities, landscapes, communities, people, events and conceptual images that will tell our story for centuries to come, taken March - April 2022.

​

An ode to the 1955 exhibition “The Family of Man” by legendary curator Edward Steichen for the MoMA, The World Today uses the blockchain to create a permanent record of our world, rich in metadata connections that further develop and cross-reference the stories within, resulting in a complex net of properties and rarities including 138 curated grails, 1 from each artist.
