       | I wonder if there are some ZK things that could further help
       | artists with some of the things they are having problems with in
       | the digital world. I am personally still just barely
       | understanding the concept of ZK things so I clearly won't be the
       | one figuring things like this out but I am really amazed by the
       | cool things that it is able provide.
