Cointelegraph journalists at South by Southwest, or SXSW, in Austin, Texas reported that nonfungible tokens (NFTs) were everywhere this year, marking a new phenomenon for what began as a music festival in 1987. Since evolving into a film, tech and general culture gathering, and after a two-year hiatus, SXSW added blockchain programming to the mix with crypto-related panels, blockchain company sponsors and NFT community interactive experiences.

Two NFT communities with the largest physical presences at SXSW were Doodles and FLUF World who ran immersive, multiday and multisensory experiences. They built physical installations at which attendees would wait in long lines to enter and interact with these virtual communities in real life. Cointelegraph got to the bottom of how these digital collections came to life at SXSW.
