"Polaroids" #24

Description

It is not yet officially summer, but it is distinctly starting to feel like it in my part of the world. Thoughts of film, chemicals, and sunshine are rising in my blood like sap. In the real world some part of my regular summer fun is mutilating Polaroids. I cut them, scratch them, score them, inject them, scrape them, sand them, soak them, push the emulsion around, tear them apart, burn them, write on them, glue things to them - you name it. When the summer sap begins to rise, that little packet of plastic calls to me like a siren. Here is your chance to mash up your own digital version of such a “Polaroid”. There is nothing complicated or deep here - just an expression of my firm belief that we all, regardless of age or condition, need abundant play, It’s recess. Come on out. There is one other reason for keeping this one simple and fun, and that is that “Polaroids” is my first project using the new WYSIWYG feature of fx(params). Here’s how it works. 1) Use the Randomized Params button to try out different variations. 2) When a design emerges that you want to mint, lock the Seed Input param. This prevents my algorithm from making further changes to the design. 3) Enter the text you want to see written on your summer keepsake in the Label param and lock it. 4) Mint & enjoy. I can’t wait to see what you create. Like all my 2023 releases, current holders of my previous work may collect “Polaroids" for free. After one week, any uncollected editions will be offered for public sale. After an additional week, any remaining editions will be burned.
