Quadrangle of My Being #140

Description

This project began as an exploration of how human beings across all sorts of cultures respond in remarkably similar ways in terms of associating sounds with shapes. That’s a project I will have to come back to. Along the way, the outputs started to remind me of landforms seen from high above and topographical maps of imaginary terrain - the terrain of my own being. Though the work is algorithmic through and through, I have used elements of my analog photographic work as a bits and pieces of some layers. These photographic works are chemigrams, and are generative in their own right, arising from semi-controlled chemical reactions on dark room paper in the presence of resists and light. These chemigrams are the first topos of my being, and bringing them into this work emphasizes something I have long wanted to pursue - the rich interplay of my analog and digital practices in search of unexplored territory. Explore some territory - you just might find the quadrangle of your being. Collection Mechanics: In the initial week after launch, holders of any of my past fx(hash) projects may mint free editions to the extent of their reserves on a first come, first served basis. Beginning in the 2nd week, any unclaimed editions will be offered for public sale. Minting Instructions: 1) Use the Randomized Params button to explore outputs. 2) When a design emerges that you want to mint, lock the Seed Input param. 3) Mint & enjoy. Parameter Descriptions: Seed Input: Each output is a unique result based on your wallet address and the seed value. If you record the seed for a given output as you explore, you can simply type in the recorded seed to retrieve it.
