Artwork Marketplace and Community Platform HeartX Announces App Product Close Beta
HeartX, an artwork marketplace and community platform, just announced that its app product starts the Close Beta Test today. It’s available now on both App Store and HeartX official website, but only people with the limited invitation code can register as community members and start earning by voting.
The Close Beta of the HeartX app introduces people to their Vote-to-Earn system, which is the beginning of its X-to-Earn ecosystem that the HeartX team has planned. Those interested can acquire the invitation code by following HeartX on Twitter to participate in specific activities and taking part in events on Discord. Some events will also be held on influencers’ or collab partners’ Twitter accounts to give away the code. The earlier users are in, the more tokens they can earn.
Recently, a vibrant array of potted flowers in various shapes and colors greeted visitors at the Chongqing Zoo, capturing the attention of everyone entering the zoo.
“I’ve been looking forward to this exhibition for a long time,” said Ms. Li, a local resident. “I heard there would be many exquisite floral arrangements and potted plants, so I rushed to bring my family here as soon as it opened. It’s a wonderful way to kick off the New Year and soak in some artistic atmosphere!”

Gabriel Martinez talks with Robert Boyd about Charles Burns, Gary Panter, and the art of underground comics.

The Literature and Language Reading Room is what I would consider a semi-hidden gem amidst the physical spaces that make up UIUC’s massive and impressive library. Lined with massive windows and perimeter bookshelves, it’s difficult to physically miss. However, to gain the full aesthetic experience, one needs to linger. Understandably, this is a difficult task for a busy student. Trust me…I know. However, if you feel the time has finally come to check it out, I highly encourage you to drop in while the newest exhibit, Image + Verse: Poetry Inspired by Art, is still on display.
As both an art and poetry enthusiast, it felt like a dream come true to hear about the library’s collection being highlighted in this way. Two glass cases greeted me at the entrance, and I immediately spotted a few of my favorite collections bookmarked and propped open.

I couldn’t help but wonder more about their ideas and inspirations.
