INTRODUCING ERUPTION 14

Eruption 14 is an exclusive Scene Swap on Burn Island for JAS BOOK GAMES token holders. This is the second out of three Scene Swaps exclusively for JAS holders and will feature art by TOKYOLUV. To be eligible, participants need to hold a VeeFriends Series 2 token and a JAS BOOK GAMES token. The reward for this exclusive event is the coveted "TOKYOLUV" Scene.

Who is TOKYOLUV?

TOKYOLUV, a Canadian digital artist hailing from Montreal fuses photography with digital animation to craft a unique style of digital collectible. Commencing his artistic journey in Tokyo, he drew early inspiration from fellow photographers and began incorporating subtle animations like blinking lights. This evolved into a captivating cyberpunk aesthetic, influenced by the dynamic streets of Tokyo. TOKYOLUV aims to encapsulate the city's essence, envisioning futuristic scenes with holograms and immersive effects. Beyond Tokyo's visual stimuli, his inspiration extends to diverse media, contributing to the continual evolution of his style. Emphasizing the fluidity of his artistic approach, he anticipates that future creations will diverge from his current work, representing an ongoing process of experimentation and growth.

"TOKYOLUV" Scene Details

"TOKYOLUV" is a mesmerizing digital artwork by TOKYOLUV that seamlessly blends the tangible and the virtual. In this composition, the artist skillfully integrates VeeFriends holograms. The scene is set against the backdrop of a rain-soaked Tokyo night, beautifully captured through the lens of the artist's camera. The deliberate choice of a nighttime setting adds a touch of mystique, with raindrops reflecting the neon lights, creating a captivating layer to the scene. The composition is strategically framed to highlight the VeeFriends Series 2 character amidst a symphony of animated elements, including a glitching VeeFriends logo and a VeeCon Viper. The result is a visually stunning and imaginatively rich artwork that invites viewers into a cyberpunk dreamscape where the boundaries between the physical and digital realms blur seamlessly.

Official rules and terms

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY

Note: You must turn off your pop up blocker when burning your BOOK GAMES token to allow the IMX widget to pop up and complete the burn.

Due to file size of this dynamic scene, Scene Swaps may take longer than usual to appear on platforms such as OpenSea. To expedite this process, please manually trigger a metadata update on your token on OpenSea.

How to Scene Swap

Scene Swap is an incredibly easy process, just follow the steps below and you should have no issue with the lava flow of metadata changes that will occur:

  1. Begin by accessing Burn Island at https://veefriends.com/burn-island

  2. Verify your eligibility by logging into your account and clicking "Check Eligibility"

  3. If you qualify, you will receive a prompt to proceed to the next steps, click "Proceed"

  4. Choose the token(s) you wish to burn and acknowledge the Terms and Conditions

  5. Handpick your eligible Series 2 Tokens for Scene Swap!

  6. After you make your selection, you will be redirected to a 'Preview Page' where you will be able to see the potential final products of your burn-scene swap - click 'Accept' if you are satisfied with the changes you are about to make to your token backgrounds.

  • When you decide to burn tokens, you'll need to take a couple of confirmation steps. First, you must "confirm" in IMX, and then you'll need to "sign" in Metamask or another non-custodial wallet to verify the action. It's crucial not to navigate away from the Burn Island page during this process. You'll receive an on-screen notification once the token burn has been confirmed.
  1. Finally, confirm and execute the token burn

Key points to keep in mind when burning BOOK GAMES tokens via IMX:

  • You'll need access to the wallet holding your BOOK GAMES token to complete the burn

  • IMX burns work on desktop only

  • Please have all tokens being burnt in the same wallet at the time of burn

Please Note: One swap will be available for each unique character pose. Holders of the same character can only swap if their pose differs from those already swapped. Tokens that have already had their combo pose/background swapped will appear in the "Ineligible Tokens" section of the token selection screen.

What is a Scene Swap?

Scene Swaps are a unique way to transform your VeeFriends Series 2 token(s) artwork by changing the background scene through Burn Island. VeeFriends will collaborate with various artists and brands to create exclusive Series 2 Scenes, allowing Eruption participants to alter the appearance and metadata of their tokens permanently.

*It's important to note that your Series 2 NFT will NOT be burned. You will, at times, be required to burn a different VeeFriends token such as BOOK GAMES, or other eligibility requirements, while some swaps may not require a burn to change your existing Series 2 NFT Scene and related metadata properties information. The choice of change falls within your hands, you choose your own destiny. If you do not participate in Burn Island "Scene Swaps," no metadata altering will happen, and your Series 2 NFT will remain in its original state.
