Folradura by Camille Roux

Folradura means fur in Old Occitan, a Romance language spoken in the south of France. This series explores producing organic patterns using a cocktail of maths, physics, noise, and randomness. FOLRADURA is based on one main concept: local modifiers. A modifier applies a local effect to the grid of hundreds of thousands of points. What you see is the trajectory of the points. Each edition plays with one or two types of modifiers that can be positioned in many different ways, sometimes randomly and other times in a grid. Each type produces very different effects like squares, spirals, lines, and waves. Each point is influenced by all the modifiers, and all this complexity creates an organic aspect and ample details

Bidonville by Julien Labat

Bidonville is the French word for slum. This series is a somewhat playful and naive take on unplanned urban areas - like a child's view on something terrible. It’s a reminder that such places exist all over the world. And that a quarter of world’s urban population live with poor access to robust housing, clean water, electricity, security … To emphasize this, the viewer is being given the power to give or take back access to water and electricity to the Bidonvilles. The piece revolves around the idea of duality. It's both serious and childish. It plays on the contrast between the very crowded slum and the emptiness of the void it seems to float in. Bidonville talks about life and death, and the promiscuity between both in those wild and teeming areas. Hit [W] to toggle access to water, [E] to toggle access to electricity (only visible in night mode).

It's (a)live by Tibout Shaik

It's (a)live is an art series created to celebrate the launch of 256ART and the unlimited possibilities generative art can give to artists. For me it represents personal growth in a lot of forms and a sense of calmness I've been lacking for the majority of my life.

The 256ART genesis series by Tibout Shaik

A 256ART genesis series piece is the key to joining the 256ART eco-system. Holding a genesis piece allows you to vote on which upcoming artists 256ART accepts. It also gives holders 24 hour pre-access to all mints and occasionally there will be member only mints (which re-use the data in your unique genesis piece).
