Recursive Meltdown #42 minted by @zancan / Got Mint ? Read/Write Failure - Disappointment 22 left for minting on @editart_xyz 🔥 💻
Having chosen the wrong life partner had destroyed me. Single parenting is one daily challenge. The tax audit is is ultimately killing me. Goodness how I miss the sparkles in my chest for creating art and interacting with you all. What you love about an artist is the impression of freedom. I'm sorry for failing that myth. Never been that strangled in my entire life. Where on earth did I fuck up that much ?

RT @Greekdx: GM 🌞 Might be wrong but I think this was the second piece I collected on @fx_hash_. The reason why I joined Tezos, to collect…
This plottable SVG from @mariuswatz for 1 tez is the best spent coin for a cathartic exercise ever.

Here's a project that retains some key traits in the lineage, including the color theme. The evolutions have a concept to justify them. I think it's important. That project gave me the courage to go past the hostile user experience and reconsider some of my harsh opinions. Things on fxh can EVOLVE and, who knows, some decisions can be REROLLED. Anyway, congrats to @idflood ! it's gorgeous💚 ( I think I mention that).

My gorgeous iteration of "Artificial Landscapes" by @idflood My base mint had a faint hint of green. Gave it a try, evolved it 3 times and here it is, that gorgeous pale green. How lucky ! Somewhat crop fields, somewhat city, someplace in between that feels safe and soothing.
Shoot, the dirty nails. I did some gardening today 🤷‍♂️🌱

Big thanks to @UnknownCo123 for the opportunity to speak a bit about Tree_Line💚 After a dazzling 6 weeks of showing, the exhibition is slowly coming to an end. But I heard that for another week you might still sneak in if you ask @bitforms 🤫
Gm! Thread time 🧵 I had the pleasure of speaking with the great @zancan in a Space about his newest release “Tree_Line” with @bitforms. In honor of that, I put together a thread with links to the conversation, exhibition & info about the show! 👇

I got to know @BanzaiTokyo better over the years. He is a trained artist from Beaux-Arts who IRL is single-daddying his son with autism. It was a stretch to commission a portrait, but I needed a way to give back a little. The result moved me to the bones, and I have a hard time to explain. Saying this is classifiable into primitive art, would be a stretch as well. It touches on the most intimate feeling of being human, of vulnerability, the fragility of a child's heart of the purest form ; and also the empathy for a single dad, that I didn't choose to have to experience one day. How that dad, with infinite patience and care, in soft touches, managed to help his kid find an interest and a focus, is admirable. When I look at "Michaël', every stroke, every detail rises a question : how ? How does it feel so organic, so spot on, so perfectly at the right place, while relying on such an unpredictable process and unconstrained intent ? I'm really having a hard time to explain. It's just there, against all odds. Merci Sergey and Sasha. The portrait touched me immensely and I'll treasure it forever💚
It took me 2 hours roughly, to write the code in JS from scratch, for a simple sequencer doing beats and generative chords inspired by the embroidery machine. My very first generative tracks! Nothing of any artistic value here, it was just exciting to try something new, and to acknowledge my hopeless reluctancy to do anything other than with code. It's amazing though how much music relates to graphic [generative] art. There are rules, structure, layers, rhythm, harmonies, textures, controlled randomness. Even if I can't play, I can understand and appreciate the maths behind it. zancan.art/ZMusic/ It's very very raw. Make sure to reload the page before pushing buttons otherwise the tracks pile up.
