This is the most portable device we have tested, that you can have with you at an art gathering, and share your new NFT’s to other collectors and artists. Very smart lens cover that works also as the stand. The sound is not very powerful, but acceptable for such a small device. Amazing portability and nice design.

The Face of America Magazine
ARTISTIC DIRECTION AND PHOTOGRAPHY: PIERRE GERVOIS
The aaxa BP1 has two major advantages: The quality of sound and the very long battery life (six hours of projection), the best we have seen for any small projector. This makes this projector the best choice for travel in remote areas for NFT art installations, where there are no power outlets. Want to do an art happening in the desert or in a forest? Take the BP1 with you. The only issue to consider is the limitation of the brightness and the relatively small size of the screen, but it’s an anticipated trade o that is perfectly acceptable in exchange for the long lasting rechargable battery and the sound quality. To display video art using sound, this is in all cases the best choice.

The aaxa P300 Neo has a much larger and brighter screen than the aaxa BP1, but the sound is quite feeble. This projector is clearly for NFT art with no sound. We like the portability of the device, that can t in a coat pocket without any problem. This projector is also very user friendly with a top touchpad very intuitive and user friendly. It also feels very sturdy. For a projector of this small size and portability, the usable screen size is remarkable. This is the overall most coherent projector for NFT art collectors and artists. Great product.

SOLA PASTA BAR NYC
PHOTOGRAPHY: EFDLT STUDIO
The Face of America Magazine
The story of Sola Pasta Bar began with the vision of the three founding owners: Nicola, Simone and Massimo Sola (Awarded Michelin Star Chef). They found each other in their strong desire to share their passion for the culinary traditions of Italy passed down from generation to generation. Each of them spent their childhood surrounded by colors, aromas and fresh pasta. The experience wasn't so much about which dishes were made but how they were made. Long before farm-to-table was a ubiquitous trend, it was the way of life of most Italian families, an attention to the raw ingredients and ways of preparing the dishes that made all the di erence in the nal dish.
