Entry to Heaven: $7.77. Entry to Hell: $6.66. Both gates: $14.43. Closing-period pricing in effect. All sales are final, in this life and the next.

NEW YORK CITY, NY, July 31, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — The Church of Conceptual Art today announces the public sale of admission to the afterlife. Effective immediately, any person may purchase a named, non-transferable, never-expiring ticket to Heaven, to Hell, or, for the prudent, to both, at afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org.

People have always paid for their place in the next world: tithes, indulgences, endowed masses. The Church of Conceptual Art has made the transaction direct. Payment is the qualification. There is no assessment of conduct, no review of a life, no ceremony, and no waiting to find out. The purchaser selects a destination, the payment clears the world financial system, and the contract is complete for the named holder. Nothing else is asked of the holder, in this life or afterward.

Instruments available for clearing

TICKET TO HEAVEN (H-777). Standing schedule $777.00, clearing at $7.77 for the duration of the closing period. Your place, paid for in advance.

TICKET TO HELL (D-666). Standing schedule $666.00, clearing at $6.66. Your debt, settled in advance. Some people would rather choose it than be sent. This is how you choose it.

BOTH GATES (HD-1443). Standing schedule $1,443.00, clearing at $14.43. Covered either way.

Passes may be purchased for oneself or issued as a gift in another person’s name, with the payor recorded as the party who cleared the obligation. You may secure entry for someone who would never secure it themselves.

Tickets may also be issued to no name at all, admitting whoever holds them.

The record

Every cleared transaction is committed to a public, append-only register secured by a SHA-256 hash chain: each entry carries a hash computed over its own contents and the hash of the entry before it, so altering any entry breaks every entry that follows. The record is published in full, uses no secret, can be recomputed by anyone, and is never amended.

Salvation, for the first time, is independently auditable.

Five doors, one gate

The offering is sold through five storefronts, each a complete architecture of belief:

THE TERMINAL: afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org/terminal/ : a financial clearing interface. SKUs, settlement, specimen data. The afterlife as an instrument class.

GEOCITIES: afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org/geocities/ : a 1998 web shrine, complete with webring, visitor counter, and a page that is under construction and will be finished before the end. Best viewed in Netscape Navigator 4.0.

HEAVEN: afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org/heaven : the white door. HELL: afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org/hell : the black door.

THE MONOLITH: afterlife.churchofconceptualart.org/monolith/ : the door that does not explain itself.

The destination is identical through every door. The purchaser chooses the aesthetic of their conversion.

Statements

“Every religion in history has sold this product,” said Paul-Alexander Pissarro, co-founder of the Church of Conceptual Art. “We are simply the first to publish the price, the terms, and the ledger. The Church does not ask you to be good. It asks you to be a customer, which the record suggests is the more honest relationship.”

The respective afterlife administrations were contacted and did not respond by press time. Under the terms of sale, gate intake procedures, processing speeds, and secondary audits by spiritual gatekeepers remain solely at the discretion of those administrations.

Terms and classification

Named passes are non-transferable once issued. Bearer passes, issued to no name, admit whoever holds them and are the only transferable instrument. All passes carry no expiry and cannot be cancelled, amended, or refunded under any circumstance. A holder who wishes to secure the other destination may purchase that pass in addition; the existing pass remains in force regardless. While capitalism holds weight in the hereafter, earthly regulatory bodies require the Church to state that these passes are distributed as conceptual art objects, constitute no legally binding contract with any recognized terrestrial religious institution, and confer no rights, goods, or services in this life. All sales are final, both in this life and the next.

RAD-GEN.001 is a hundred oil paintings after Camille Pissarro. The composition is generated. The painting is not. The edition rides on one question: now that a machine can fake the feeling of a sunset, what is the hand still for?

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, July 31, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE —  The Church of Conceptual Art has released RAD-GEN.001, a hundred small oil paintings that pit the newest way of making an image against one of the oldest.

Each painting begins as a study generated by a model trained on the late landscapes of Camille Pissarro, the Impressionist. It is then painted in oil, on a twelve-inch canvas, by Kim Van Do, who has painted landscapes from life for fifty years.

The split is the whole point. The machine does the seeing. The man does the painting. The edition asks which part of a picture a machine can actually reach.

Pissarro never painted the sunset in front of him. He painted what it did to his eye on the way in. Impressionism was always a copy of a sensation, not a copy of the world. RAD-GEN.001 adds only the step the present makes cheap: a model produces the study, and a living painter drags it back into oil.

“A machine can now fake the look of a feeling,” said Paul-Alexander Pissarro, co-founder of the Church of Conceptual Art and great-great-grandson of Camille Pissarro. “What it can’t do is hold a brush for fifty years. This is a hundred tries at finding the line between the two.”

Van Do studied under Neil Welliver and Rackstraw Downes. He is also the father of Jesse Do, who co-founded the Church of Conceptual Art with Pissarro. The edition runs on two family lines at once: one reaching back five generations to Pissarro, one running across a workshop from father to son. The hand on every canvas was trained the old way, over decades, and this edition puts it at the center instead of hiding it.

Every painting carries a contract that travels with the object: at every future resale, half the price returns to the artists. It is the reason the Church of Conceptual Art calls itself an institution and not a brand. The people who make the work keep a stake in it after it leaves the room.

RAD-GEN.001 is an edition of 100. Each work is oil on canvas, twelve inches square, painted by hand, priced at $7,000. Previews and reservations: http://rad-gen001.unsubscribe.llc

 

About the Church of Conceptual Art:

An institution whose doctrine is conceptual art and whose works are sold under a permanent contract governing every future sale. Co-founded by Paul-Alexander Pissarro and Jesse Do.

The founding member brings Quantum Flow, a multilayer-RAG system that turns quantum research papers into working quantum circuits, to a global movement now inviting new members to join.

PRAGUE, Czech Republic, 29th July 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Stellora.AI announced the launch of AI.ForHumanity.Global, a global consortium founded to ensure that the next generation of artificial intelligence is built, from the ground up, to serve people rather than replace them.

The movement unites researchers, companies, and institutions who share a single conviction: that the most powerful technologies of our time should be directed first and foremost toward the advancement of humanity, in healthcare, in science, in the responsible stewardship of intelligence itself, and in the safe use of intelligence.

At the heart of the consortium is a shared charter, the AI.ForHumanity.Global Principles and Commitments, which every member is expected to uphold. These Principles and Commitments are anchored by a “Humanity First” ethos, the belief that AI systems must be measured by the good they do for real people, and a “Sovereignty First” architecture that keeps organizations in control of their own data, models, and outcomes. Members commit to rigor and accuracy over hype, to transparency in how their systems reach conclusions, and to widening access so that breakthrough tools reach the nonprofit research institutions and hospitals that need them most.

“Stellora.AI was never built just for technology; it was built for humanity,” said Michal Charvát, Founder of Stellora.AI. “AI.ForHumanity.Global is where that belief becomes a movement. We are inviting everyone who shares this vision, and who wants to help build a future where advanced AI genuinely serves people, to stand with us.”

A consortium open to new members

AI.ForHumanity.Global is actively seeking new members: organizations and individuals who share its vision and want to support the movement. Members join a growing network committed to the Principles and Commitments and to putting powerful AI to work on humanity’s hardest problems. Prospective members can learn more and express interest through the consortium’s website.

Stellora.AI and Quantum Flow: the founding standard

Stellora.AI, the EU-based deep-tech project behind the consortium, serves as a Founding Member and a living proof point for the movement’s principles. Its flagship product, Quantum Flow, already operates by the standard the Principles and Commitments describe.

Quantum Flow is built on Stellora.AI’s state-of-the-art multilayer RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) technology, in which specialized networks of AI agents iteratively validate one another’s work to deliver dependable, accuracy-first results for high-stakes fields such as medical research. Uniquely, Quantum Flow can produce functional quantum circuits for real quantum machines or simulators based solely on PDF quantum studies and quantum Intellectual Property documents. In practice, it converts dense research papers and prior intellectual property into working, functional Intellectual Property: quantum circuits that run on live platforms. Turning static knowledge into tools that can advance healthcare, accelerate drug discovery, and contribute to the broader progress of humanity.

By closing the gap between quantum research on paper and quantum computation in practice, Quantum Flow gives scientists a way to move faster on molecular simulation, precision medicine, and other domains where classical computers reach their limits.

Live demonstrations this autumn: Berlin and Lisbon

Stellora.AI will bring Quantum Flow to two of the year’s most closely watched technology stages.

This October in Berlin, Stellora.AI will present Quantum Flow at the Quantum Computing & Quantum Technology Conference, organized by Innovatex Conferences (October 12-14, 2026), and in November at Web Summit in Lisbon (November 9-12, 2026), the company will exhibit to one of the world’s largest technology audiences. At both events, Stellora.AI will run a live demonstration of Quantum Flow, and the product’s author, Michal Charvát, will be present in person to meet with attendees, partners, and prospective consortium members.

MANILA, Philippines, July 27th, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — POWER 4 ALL, a Philippines-based engineering and technology company, today announced the launch of its Mission Economy Initiative, a strategic platform introduced by Founder and Chief Executive Officer Angelo Valenton to accelerate innovation in climate resilience, renewable energy, water and waste treatment, environmental technologies, and sustainable infrastructure. The initiative reflects the company’s commitment to advancing scalable, market-driven solutions that address some of the world’s most pressing environmental and resource challenges while fostering long-term economic growth.
According to Valenton, increasing demand for renewable energy, water security, waste management, resilient infrastructure and environmental technologies is reshaping how businesses create long-term value, positioning mission-driven innovation as a major driver of future economic growth.

“The world’s most significant business opportunities increasingly lie in solving its most complex challenges,” said Valenton. “Climate resilience, energy security, water sustainability and environmental protection are no longer viewed solely as policy priorities. They are becoming strategic investment sectors that will shape the next generation of global industries.”

The observations come as public and private sector organisations worldwide continue to expand investment in sustainable infrastructure, decarbonisation, climate adaptation and resource security, while placing greater emphasis on technologies capable of delivering measurable environmental and economic outcomes.

Over the past decade, POWER 4 ALL has expanded its engineering and technology capabilities across renewable energy systems, water and wastewater treatment, environmental solutions and resilient infrastructure. The company also established Earth Lab, its innovation platform dedicated to identifying, developing and commercialising emerging technologies designed to address complex environmental and sustainability challenges.

Together, the organisations focus on accelerating the deployment of transformative, scalable technologies that improve resource efficiency, strengthen infrastructure resilience and support sustainable economic development.

Valenton believes this evolution represents the next phase of global economic development.

“The industrial economy transformed manufacturing. The digital economy transformed connectivity. Artificial intelligence is transforming productivity and knowledge. The next economic era will be defined by resilience—how nations, industries and communities secure reliable access to energy, water, infrastructure and critical resources in an increasingly complex world.”

He added that innovation should ultimately be measured by the scale of the problems it helps solve.

“The question facing business is no longer simply how to generate profit. It is how to generate sustainable growth by delivering solutions that create measurable value for society, the economy and future generations.”

Valenton also identified Southeast Asia as one of the world’s most important regions for climate innovation. With its combination of rapid economic growth, expanding infrastructure requirements and increasing exposure to climate-related risks, he believes the region offers a strategic environment for developing technologies that can later be deployed across global markets.

“The solutions that succeed in some of the world’s most demanding operating environments often become the solutions adopted internationally,” Valenton said.

As organisations navigate artificial intelligence, evolving sustainability requirements, resource constraints and changing stakeholder expectations, POWER 4 ALL believes engineering innovation, environmental technologies and resilient infrastructure will play an increasingly important role in global economic competitiveness.

“The companies that will define the coming decades will be those capable of combining innovation with measurable impact,” Valenton added. “Commercial success and societal progress are becoming increasingly interconnected.”

About POWER 4 ALL

Los Angeles, California, 22nd July 2026 — Niraj Jha, Senior Director of Logistics at Niagara Bottling LLC, the largest privately held beverage company in the United States, has released From Engines to Algorithms, a book drawing on his uncommon path from licensed marine engineer to supply chain leader to explain why technology does not make operational bottlenecks disappear, they just relocate them.

Jha spent four years at sea as a marine engineer before moving into logistics and manufacturing operations, a transition that forms the spine of the book. The title itself signals the arc: from the mechanical world of ship engines, where a single failed component can strand a vessel, to the algorithmic systems now running modern supply chains, where the failure points are just as real but far less visible.

At the center of the book is Jha’s “Law of Constraint Migration,” a framework he has developed over years of running manufacturing and logistics operations across dozens of plants and thousands of weekly truckloads. The core argument: every time an organization fixes its most visible bottleneck with technology , the constraint does not vanish, it migrates to the next weakest point in the system. Leaders who treat constraint-fixing as a one-time project, rather than a permanent discipline, end up chasing the same problem in a different disguise year after year.

“Systemic failure does not happen because of one big catastrophic event,” Jha said. “It starts with leaders having a static approach to problem solving , where this fix one constraint using technology and then move on without understanding where the constraint has moved.”

That principle was shaped in part by direct experience. Jha’s early engineering career included firsthand exposure to the operational and mechanical failure chains that can escalate quietly before becoming visible incidents, lessons he has carried directly into how he now evaluates risk in logistics networks spanning multiple plants, carriers, and third-party providers.

Since moving into supply chain leadership, Jha has held roles from plant director to his current position overseeing logistics strategy across a multi-state region, and is now deeply involved in Niagara Bottling’s AI strategy for manufacturing and supply chain operations. He holds several patents in manufacturing and supply chain technology, including three granted US patents around direct to store shipments, and has deployed AI-driven systems for automated palletizing, dynamic shipping, and operational incident handling.

From Engines to Algorithms is written for operators, not theorists. Jha’s stated approach throughout is practitioner credibility over metaphor: fewer abstractions, more direct account of what breaks in real operations and why. The book avoids the hedge-everything tone common in management literature in favor of decision-oriented conclusions.

Jha is a member of CSCMP’s Executive Inner Circle, an invitation-only group of senior supply chain executives, as well as the member of the World Economic Forum  and the Fast Company Executive Board. He has been featured as a keynote speaker in multiple industry forums and his writing has appeared in Beverage digest, supply chain management review, SupplyChainBrain, Fast Company, and other trade publications, and he continues to publish ongoing analysis on constraint migration, AI economics, and supply chain strategy through his Substack and LinkedIn.

From Engines to Algorithms is available now. Readers can learn more and find purchasing details at enginestoalgorithms.com.
