May Pang’s Photographs From John Lennon’s ‘Lost Weekend’ Years To Be Sold As An NFT

May Pang’s Photographs From John Lennon’s ‘Lost Weekend’ Years To Be Sold As an NFT Oasis Digital Studios, a company launched by Liquid Avatar Technologies Inc. and ImagineAR Inc. (OTCQB:IPNFF), together with McCartney Multimedia, Inc. will create NFTs from May Pang’s private and personal collection of photographs taken during the 18 months she spent with John Lennon beginning the summer of 1973 and lasting through early 1975.

A Non-Fungible Token or NFT is a digital asset that represents a wide range of tangible and intangible assets like digital and conventional artwork, collectibles, memorabilia, and other items. However, unlike typical NFTs which are generally digital video or images that represent “moments in time” like digital cards, digital pets and in-game skins, or a piece of artwork, Oasis will be creating and deploying embedded augmented reality (AR) “triggers” in each Oasis supported NFT, and to support and introduce NFT programs, brands, and participants.  This will allow users to engage in enabled immersive and “living” shareable experiences through the Liquid Avatar Mobile App and AR-enabled websites. 

“Having learned the value of collectibles and the passion of fans as a child when I earned pocket money in Liverpool helping my Mother Angie, and Beatles Fan Club secretary Freda Kelly organize global fan mail, I am excited to be able to offer our musician, Chef and artist network the chance to digitally create new sustainable products. In addition, they are able to generate income from today’s version of the rare vinyl, ticket stubs, and concert posters marketplace of the past. NFTs are a solution for the creative community to be able to generate a brand-new revenue stream, and more importantly, royalty-bearing revenue at that,” said Ruth McCartney, Digital Diva and founder of McCartney Multimedia.

The photographs cover historically important times in Lennon’s life, including Lennon introducing his son Julian to music following their three-year estrangement, Lennon’s reconciliation with Paul McCartney, and their last performance together, documented on the bootleg album “A Toot and a Snore in ‘74.

”The photographs span Lennon and Pang’s time together living in both Manhattan and Los Angeles and the period that Lennon produced Harry Nilsson’s “Pussy Cats” album and his oldies album, “Rock ‘n’ Roll” with Phil Spector.NFT fans and collectors will be able to own Pang’s personal photographs as a digital asset.”I am thrilled to be working with David and his team at Oasis Digital Studios along with Ruth and McCartney Multimedia, Inc for this new NFT platform to bring a new perspective to my personal and private photographic collection of my time with John. Now, let’s Rock’n’Roll!” Pang, 70, said in a press release.

What’s Next: The NFTs will be offered by Oasis Digital Studies in April, and collectors can register by joining the presale waitlist on the company’s website.
