This Punk is inspired by CryptoPunk #9261 and artworks of Lisitsky. In this case we tried to transmit the spirit of the early 20th century and of conquering the sky. As a stylistic basis, we took how vintage photos of the first inventors of flying machines looked like. The original Punk wasn't chosen randomly - its headgear and whole head look like they are inflated and about to get off the ground. That's why we decided to reflect on the idea of making this Punk float in the sky. We don't like to tell all ideas and images that stand behind our punks so we will show just some of them so that it would be easier for you to find your own ones. To follow the style we decided to take airships and their construction as a basis.

To show the mentioned spirit we decided to construct the Punk just as airships were built. We wanted to show how great the ideas of flying humans were and emphasize it with a mania of projects with enormous proportions of that time. For example, Graf Zeppelin - german airship that was the biggest aircraft in the world for the time when it was built. So the upper part is the main balloon that is filled with air and just below it there is a neck that reminds of a cabin. To connect all the elements we invented a system of ropes and slings, reminiscent of the attachment of airships, beams of the first paragliders and balloons.

We came up with the idea of a structure that rests on cables and ropes after we visited the Museum of Technology and Art named after Count Zeppelin in Friedrichshafen, Germany. Here we heard the moving story of Henri Giffard, the first man to invent a controlled airship powered by a steam engine. In 1852, Henri Giffard built a 44m-long, cigar-shaped balloon and on September 24, 1852 he flew it to an altitude of around 1800m before it safely descended to earth. After that he continued to develop and improve new balloon designs all his life. His most ambitious goal was a 600 m long dirigible filled with air. But his plans were not fated to come true. In 1882, due to his onset of blindness, he killed himself by poisoning with chloroform.
