Art is in the eye of the beholder, I am dying to know what you see in this piece that I worked so hard on.
An intersection in the 강남 style - it's nice to see some art applied to the real world.
“How to Start a War” is the first published fiction piece by bestselling author Tim Ferriss (The 4-Hour Workweek, Tools of Titans, etc.), available only in NFT form. This short story is about mercenaries, modern life, mental gymnastics, and the games we play.
Ink sketch, digitally manipulated. Unyielding. Achromic. Looking right at you.
Caught in the act!
A no-ship was a starship, and type of no-chamber, that was invisible to prescience. This meant that its movements or occupants could not be seen by many of those who possessed prescient powers, such as Guild Navigators. In this case, we are going to call them “Shell Navigators” every collector of the fragments of these “Ixian No-ships” will have a part in this generative-sci-fi inspired worlds I've been inspired by from the very start of my journey. This is not a roadmap but as the story says “it's all part of the path triggered by a perceived need to diversify the human race and allow it to evolve.
A spontaneous vision, born out of personal and public social cycles.
Because we are different.

This Protoglyph is the output from an early algorithm exploration for the Autoglyphs, but operates at much higher resolution and detail. These initial explorations were done before we realized just how limiting executing everything on-chain was going to be. Once we incorporated those limitations the resolution and output format changed somewhat, but you can still see some of the original DNA present from this early prototype.

The beauty of the eternal & internal harmony within. During every day, at any moment, within every mind we’re given opportunities to rethink & renew. Turning our inner webs & weeds into greatness & growth, bursting with blooms of beauty. It’s up to you to choose to renew, so choose wisely!
a meditation on euphoric states.
“Wall” is an algorithmic appreciation of a brick wall - everything that it is made of, everything that has been added to it or removed from it, and everything that it interacts with.
Knowns and unknowns Capturing the moment of the feeling we have when choosing. Thinking about knowns and unknowns. From all the artworks you've chosen one, you've made the choice. Inspired by the Grails concept.

The entrance to the basement shop from where all good things are birthed. The lord chisels still, so don't leave your bench for long.
From the series "Life In Japan."
The depression sits idle, patiently waiting to find more time to breathe. It eats what I eat and thinks what I think, but better. Forever hoping that it leaves me be but terrified it will. Love, friendship and responsibility exist around me…but IT does not know those things.Either I contain it well, or I've made them all liars. I'm sorry.

Alma found delight in the sway of a leaf blown in the breeze, in the changing hues of a tree from one season to the next, in the quiet contemplation of nature's course. Serendipitously, over the last few months, nature has been at the core of my practice, by way of artificial intelligence. ...
Imperfect restorations of the same picture. Each restoration has limited information and a limited ability to reassemble the pixels correctly. This is a re-utilisation of a pixel-sorting algorithm I made a few years ago. The combination of applying it on a relatively simple image and doing it multiple times makes the workings of the algorithm more apparent. The attached video shows how the algorithm works, repeatedly swapping pixels to recreate the original image.
I do not do editions for a variety of reasons. This practice continues in this Grails Piece. While each of these may appear the same, they are actually unique generative pieces augmented with noise from the quantum computer ibmq_quinto. ...
Latent Floral A is a multi-dimensional AI Data Painting that transforms a fragment of the world's natural phenomena into a visual poem for Metaverse. ...
The style is an amalgamation of the many art styles that I have been deeply influenced by throughout the years. ...

This is a preliminary sketch and color study for a physical painting that I will be making soon. Graphite and Digital, 3142 x 4018 Pixels, 2022.
The Bookends series explores the tension and harmony between ceramics, one of the oldest crafts known to mankind, and the seemingly unlimited variety of algorithmic art.
This work is a 2022 reimagining of a previously unreleased composite drawing I made in 2012. At the time I was investigating the Deviant Art community as an outsider, somewhat as visual anthropologist. ...
To me, Ball is a meditation on the illusion of movement itself. An object in motion stays in motion. Always move forward.
Unlike Xie's typical code-based work, "Away from Keyboard" is a physical piece: a hand-cut and pasted collage inspired by her own algorithms. Each piece of paper used is printed with one of her generative patterns. Through this manual creation process, Xie gets to explore and understand her generative systems in a different light.
This titan is keeping the Vault safe. What's behind though… ?
The artwork reflects on some questionable elements in biblical writings on which a number of know right-wing politicians still base their misogynist and homophobic law-making practices.
A digital artwork by Mr Doodle as part of a continuation of his Abstract Doodlism series. Which features layers of loose doodles on top of one and other in a way that creates a feeling of colourful graffiti like lines building raw, vibrant images.
Gas masks were extensively used during the First World War and the Second World War. Although it is rarely talked about, Africans played a huge role in both wars, which means that they must have been handed gas masks at some point to go out into the war front and face the enemies. Yet, a cursory search on the internet shows that there is hardly any image of an African wearing a gas mask in these wars. Why?
... Lastly, a non-literal labyrinth linking past and upcoming long form generative art projects - GEIST gives rise to keys for those willing to explore a non-linear future.
Neural Pattern formation cloud update // in progress
A year ago I was obsessively crafting algorithms to draw trees with a pen plotter. At the core of them is a piece of code that fast computes line intersections, the black magic behind all of my pen plotter works. The Fabric of Trees is an output from the same algorithm that later made my genesis ETH piece "The Oak Tree", nothing less, except the magic of deactivating line intersections.
