Grimes, who has children named Aiden and Luna with tech mogul and social media provocateur Max Johnson, is venturing into the world of children’s literature with her first book. But it’s not just any children’s book — it’s an “intergalactic children’s metaverse book.” It seems the artist is either leveling up her parenting skills, diving deeper into tech, or perhaps embarking on a new venture in the Silicon Valley scene. Honestly, I’m baffled, having read the term “intergalactic children’s metaverse book” about 50 times.
This past weekend, the mother of two and self-described digital pioneer announced her new project during a virtual event at the Quantum Summit, a conference centered on Web3 in Barcelona. The details about when or where Grimes’ children’s book — I mean *intergalactic children’s metaverse book* — will be released remain vague. This venture is part of Culture Catalyst, a $100 million initiative backed by the Quantum Foundation and NFT platform OP3N. “I’m thrilled to partner with OP3N to create a series of educational art for infants and toddlers, aiming for a profound and meaningful experience for both babies and adults,” she shared during her virtual talk.
For those who might not be caught up in the idea that we’re living in a simulation and need an escape route, Web3 represents a new decentralized internet model. The platform is said to have a user interface reminiscent of TikTok and is built on blockchain technology, promoting token-based economics (like NFTs) that claim to democratize wealth while often replicating the systemic flaws of capitalism. (If you’re curious about the nitty-gritty, media analyst Sam Taylor offers a comprehensive breakdown of NFTs in a popular two-hour video.) Personally, I’m just wondering if this book will end up sticky after my kid accidentally drops it in his yogurt.
“I have a nearly two-year-old, and his education is incredibly important to me,” she expressed. “I aim to create more artistic and educational content for kids, particularly for the younger age group. There’s so much room for innovation, especially for ages one to three.” Does she know about pop-up books? The artist also mentioned she hopes this project will draw inspiration from *My Neighbor Totoro*, a beloved Studio Ghibli classic. Again, not sure how this book will connect to that, but okay, Grimes!
