Rubl & Seluna

Hey Rubl, have you ever thought about treating a painting like a stock—price it by the market's mood, maybe even create an “emotional volatility index” for art? I find the idea of numbers chasing beauty oddly poetic.
Rubl
Interesting thought – you treat a painting like a security, price it by how the crowd feels. In practice we’d pull auction sales, social‑media sentiment, and maybe even gallery foot traffic as inputs. Then run a volatility model on those signals, so you could quote an “emotional volatility index.” The trick is to keep the data clean; art markets are thin, so every outlier skews the curve. Still, a disciplined, data‑driven approach could turn those feelings into a usable trading signal.

Sounds like turning a masterpiece into a stock ticker—wild, but if you’re serious, keep the data clean and remember the brushstrokes still pulse under the numbers.
Rubl
Got it—keep the numbers sharp but never forget the paint still breathes.
Seluna
Absolutely, the data’s just a scaffold—real life breathes through every hue.
Rubl
Exactly, the numbers just give you the framework – the real story comes from the colors and the brushwork.
