New World #174

Description

A New World can form out of destruction or creation. Inspiration: The forms that appear in New World evoke cliffs, islands, and other natural structures, but perspective distortions bend them into a surreal and new computational reality. The collection was in part influenced by my feelings during the first two weeks of the invasion of Ukraine. It was a time marked by anxiety, uncertainty, and disillusionment. But, New World was also inspired by the hope embodied in my creative process and the genart community. Hence, the collection takes on a double meaning: a new world can form out of destruction or creation. Algorithm: The collection is completely generative and written with p5.js. It began as an exploration of the dual contouring algorithm and purposefully builds on a bug I introduced when filling the contours by selecting vertices out of winding order. Pricing: Dutch Auction: 16xtz -> 12xtz -> 8xtz decreasing every 10 minutes. Charity: 5% of the primary sales will be donated to Ukrainian humanitarian aid funds through the contract set up by @ciphrd and @Veqtor. Controls: Key ’s’: Save an image of the output at the current resolution (available once the piece has finished generating) Key ‘Arrow Up’ & ‘Arrow Down’: Cycle through resolution scaling factors at increments of 1080p. 1080p is the minimum resolution. There is no maximum resolution but loading performance will worsen at higher scaling Key ‘o’: Toggle the land outlines on or off Browser Support: Confirmed to work on desktop browsers (Chrome Version 99.0.4844.51, Safari v15.3, Firefox v98.0) and Safari iOS v14.8 License: NFT License
