Hi HN,

Time is constantly changing, and so is everything in the world. There’s no way to get a hold of time, or of a particular moment. You could buy something from a day but its quality and use would degrade over time.

There’s another element that’s changing the most, the fastest – our precious air. Air’s composition, quality and feel is changing rapidly just as time is.

We capture the Air of a particular day as a memento, a souvenir, a true memorabilia of time.

The Air of Time of a particular day will represent that day on any future date. So while everything would have changed, you can still have something of that time which is unchanged.

There is a cap of maximum 3 units on any given day.

What is Air of Time? On a particular day, we enclose fresh natural Air from California in an air tight container and ship it to you anywhere in the world.

Possible reasons to buy Air of Time? Not one, but ten reasons here: [2]

What can one do with Air of Time? - Keep it as a memory of everything that happened on that day. - Share with the world, and make a statement about Climate change, about all the things that happen but don’t make sense. - Gift it to someone, especially to those who can buy everything themselves. You can’t buy Air of a day that has already passed.

Is this a prank? No, we really believe in this, and are serious about it. Please go through the product website, as well as our blog to learn more [3].

Requests from you: Please share feedback, and creative ideas on how we can share it with wider audiences.

    Hm... "If you’re a successful investor, you understand that the value of most products is not the inherent value they provide, but their intangible / perceived value. ...it could be worth 10x, or even 100x in just few years."

    I think this needs more blockchain. Maybe add an NFT?

    $1000 is way too cheap. I would pay 10 times this amount to get as high on air as you are.

Good air are all the same; the bad air are uniquely bad in their own way. I guess air from the days when there is a wild fire should cost more.
