RE: Blockchain Logo?

What's our deadline on the logo? I ask because the guy is a Generative Artist who uses algorithms to produce unique drawings based on variables from a source medium. For this event, I was thinking about taking a blockchain block's Merkel Root and having him use that to create a visual with the primary color of the W3C logo as the base.

He sells his art here: store.lucastswick.com, but is willing to create something for us free of charge for unlimited use

I just need to let him know when it is needed by.

Hey–

Thanks, I'd like to take a look at it.

If there's not a (semi-) official blockchain logo, maybe we'll just do something evocative with the W3C logo involved, too.

Thanks!
Doug
