Inspiration
We summarize the life path as three phases: BIRTH - LIFE - DEATH. These phases have been chosen by our artist as the main theme of the three phases to be launched one after the other.
What it does
Since the beginning of history, people inquire the life and tried to find an answer to the meaning of their existence. Discovering the meaning of life and determining the purpose are human need rather than just a topic in philosophy.
With the help of inquiring, on the base of the need the people tries to find connections between every event and phenomenon. As to explain these connections, people tries to find coincidences, sometimes on the natural order of the universe, and sometimes on supernatural powers. This is the point, how the idea of destiny has started to develop.
This type of search has led people to make a great effort to gain a purpose in their life and to satisfy their unlimited sense of curiosity. This effort is named ZEN. At the end of this effort, the master who was able to reach a phase and depth within himself is the GURU. ZEN is the path; GURU is the traveller. We aimed to present this journey to you from beginning to end with an NFT trilogy.
How we built it
Your sign is the first acquisition that you have in your life, which directs your life. That's exactly what impressed us. The day that you were born, was your destiny. And we are, as the ZENGURU team, decided to carry away this phenomenon to the digital world. It is the birthday of yourself and your loved ones, which is the most unique day for you. We've transformed that day with your sign into a magnificent hand-made 3D visual feast. We've tried to make you feel special in the NFT world. And we did it. We've created one of the most precious gifts that you can give to your loved ones or yourselves.
Challenges we ran into
Although we are spending a lot of time on the value what we producing as a team, the insufficient budget of our team on some issues delays the promotion of our collections. In this process, we have periodic difficulties because we want to continue with a natural process instead of using influencers for promotion.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The content we produce was created by an internationally recognized artist. The quality of the product we produce makes us proud.
What we learned
NFT markets built on Icp are more deficient in infrastructure than other networks (no .mp4 support), there is no self-minting. We learned how important it is to build a value on Web3, being a team and a community.
What's next for Zen Guru
We will create projects 2 and 3. We will support the products we create through the metaverse infrastructure. We want to create tradable values at our Metaverse.
