Curatorial Commentary

The entire Rare Pepe collection. 1774 artworks. On a two meter continuous strip of Ilford color microfilm. Packaged in metal with a hand magnifying glass and a note from agent F. Designed to survive 500 years without electricity. This is Archive 04 — the last one auctioned on the primary market. FWD built the INFOKEK archive project as an act of preservation at the moment when the ten-year history of Rare Pepe was becoming something that needed preserving. The microfilm format is not nostalgic. It is the most durable physical medium available. The choice says something about how seriously the archive takes its own mandate. The lot includes the physical archive and a 1/1 INFOKEK.RPA04 sub-asset on Counterparty. The chain and the film together. Neither is sufficient alone.
