The head5 collection—available now for a limited time on the Polygon blockchain--is the newest collaboration between deadmau5 (Joel Zimmerman) and Nick denBoer. Nick, publicly known as ‘Smearballs,’ is responsible for many of deadmau5's insane tour visuals featuring dancing bug-eyed farm animals and the many characters in the music videos for “Monophobia,” “Pomegranate” and “Drama Free.” This project is an extension of those worlds and characters, where collectors will not only own an NFT but will benefit from additional token utility and rewards throughout the metaverse.

Key Points: 
  • Wolf3D is the creator of the cross-game avatar platform Ready Player Me, which helps users create an avatar they can use across many virtual experiences and give developers an easy-to-use tool for building avatar-based experiences.
  • Ready Player Me provides players and developers with plug-and-play tools for easy integration of its avatar system to any virtual world or game engine.
  • Removing the need to create a new avatar for every new app or game, users simply sign in with Ready Player Me and travel through the metaverse with a uniform 3D avatar.
  • Working alongside deadmau5 and Richie Hawtin amongst dozens of the world's top music industry veterans, the future is bright for music, crypto, and Audio NFTs.
