The Banned From the Internet series started as a game at the birth of the instagram algorithm. Instagram along with other social media platforms have strict community guidelines that discourage and inhibit the posting of explicit content. All social media giants have implemented algorithms that quickly identify and delete anything that violates their guidelines. Slimesunday took it upon himself to trick these algorithms with tactical collage. By seamlessly blending nudity with everyday objects, natural imagery, and textural elements, Slimesunday effectively evaded detection for over a year. In recent months, Slimesunday’s work has been flagged across the internet and deleted. To ensure that these works continue to exist free from censorship, the Banned From the Internet collection has been resurrected and tokenized through NFT marketplace Nifty Gateway.
