Memory Token, 2021 · Jeff Davis

Memory Tokens are a series that reference my early career / non-generative artwork from 1993-2005. They are a summation of my interest in reductive abstraction, translating paintings, drawings, lithographs, relief prints, screenprints, and digital prints into a retrospective of digital tokens.

Ornament, 2021 · Jan Robert Leegte

Ornament is swapping the actors. The frame becoming the content. Ornament is an on-chain deterministically generated SVG.

JPEG, 2022 · Jan Robert Leegte

Compression has been the driving force behind the image-based internet since the early 90s. No compression, no Netscape, no social media, no NFTs. The JPEG compression has specifically enabled photography-based imagery on the net. It has always served that purpose and over time become the de facto default for showing high quality imagery online. But compression always leaves a trace, which has become the lens through which the network sees the world of uploaded images. "A painting is not a picture of an experience, but is the experience." ― Mark Rothko

Window, 2022 • Jan Robert Leegte

Window pays tribute to interface culture, and as such, the work is responsive and not scaling. When the work is viewed on a smaller scale, details will disappear, yet the composition stays recognisable. It is like stepping back to see a work from a distance. The work can also increasingly reveal more details when made larger. As a result Window will keep unfolding in the future as resolutions will grow.

Walled Garden, 2025 · Jan Robert Leegte

In Walled Garden all collectors share the experience of the same central procedural artwork. Perspective creates the unique output rather than variation. And as perspective forces attendance, the observers are all present within the work, and they too become a part of the installation. Walled Garden is a place we can look at and be looked at, but not touch. A sanctuary we own, but cannot enter.

Petro National, 2022 • John Gerrard

196 nations realised as gasoline spills on the world ocean. Centering on a generative thin film refraction algorithm each country in Petro National reflects its per capita annual consumption of petroleum, with low-consumption countries and regions manifesting a very thin spill leaning towards the blue green spectrum to high-consumption countries and regions being thick, lustrous and highly iridescent forms. Society consumes 100 million barrels of oil every day with radically differing patterns between global north and south.

alignDRAW, 2023 · Elman Mansimov

alignDRAW - the first text-to-image artwork from 2015. By early 2015, neural networks had mastered the art of 'image-to-text' and could create natural language captions for images. Flipping this process, and turning text into image, was a much more complex challenge solved by 19-year old prodigy Elman Mansimov's alignDRAW model.

Colorspace, 2022 · Tabor Robak

Colorspace is a tribute to creating on the computer. An animated painting with programed brushes, erasers, and accents. Based on the gestures of classic screensavers and operating system UI elements. I was inspired by the file size limits of storing on Ethereum. Cutting edge technology meets a floppy disc. It reminded me of my original software tools: MacPaint, Kid Pix, HyperCard, on a black and white Mac Classic II.

Cerebellum, 2023 · Laya Mathikshara & Santiago

Squares, 2022 · Martin Grasser

“Squares” utilizes the shape of a square as a unit of construction, combining and overlapping them at various scales to create interplays of color, structure, and atmosphere. The overall effect is something along the lines of Bauhaus meets Blade Runner, as complex rectilinear forms float untethered through fields of light and texture.

Love, 2022 · Martin Grasser

A collaboration between the ATP Tour, Art Blocks Engine, and Martin Grasser, LOVE is a collection of unique digital artworks that uses in-match sports data to celebrate impactful moments from the 2022 Nitto ATP Finals in Turin, Italy.

Edifice, 2021 · Ben Kovach

"Edifice" is a series of massive, deteriorating structures built on strange terrain. It is an exploration of buildings being conceptualized, constructed, and eroded away under a wide variety of conditions. Edifice's outputs run the gamut between minimal and maximal, with some showing few large, static blocks of color, and others many small, highly textured and warped shapes. Each image is progressively constructed in front of the viewer's eyes. It is a system full of surprises that I'm excited to share with the world.

FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT, 2022 · Maya Man

This project borrows from the bubbly language and pastel aesthetics of text driven instagram graphics to scrutinize the promotion of wellness, self-care, and confidence on social media. The piece concentrates on the rhetoric employed in these posts. Persuasive, upbeat, and relentlessly inspirational, there’s a sense of authority embedded in each one. By remixing words and phrases sourced from these types of existing instagram posts, the program generates combinations that mimic their cheerful tone, but range from feeling vaguely familiar to totally absurd.

Feeling Lucky, 2023 · Maya Man

Ugly Bitches, 2023 · Ann Hirsch, Maya Man, & Golira

'Ugly Bitches' is a collection of GAN generated dolls trained on images of over a thousand contemporary and vintage dolls, each one was randomly paired with a comment sourced from a female influencer’s Instagram and altered by the artists to replace “beauty” adjectives with “ugly” and feminine nouns, such as “woman” with “bitch.” Finally, each of the dolls pose in front of one of thirty-two unique Dall-E backgrounds generated based on popular influencer destinations. Warning: These Ugly Bitches don’t attempt to reclaim, empower, or celebrate... they’re just being themselves.

Polychrome Music, 2022 · Rafaël Rozendaal & Danny Wolfers

For Polychrome Music I designed a generative music system that plays an infinite composition on 3 different audio channels, each with their own synthesizer. These randomly generate simple musical timbres inspired by early computer sound chips. The music itself is generated by randomly selecting 3 patterns out of a pool of 180. These patterns, which are little 8-bar music pieces, were written in the same C# Dorian scale so they always fit together.

Interferences, 2022 · Juan Pedro Vallejo

Interferences is an excuse to return to color theories from the Bauhaus and Latin American cinetics artist, that made up the artistic avant-garde of the 1950s. From there, the project seeks to continue developing on the relative characteristics of color: those situations in which our experience of the color changes according to the context. How to use color? It's not what colors, but how colors are used that define artists.

This artwork is not just about the art, but also about an intimate personal experience. The collector is invited to the creation process, to be in dialog with the artist, while watching him creating the artwork in a video chat. The creation of the art will become a performance and eventually the collector will become a part of the artwork.

Scribbled Boundaries, 2021 • William Tan

Scribbles on Scribbles on Scribbles ➿ This series is an exploration of chaos and order – how seemingly random movements in the microscopic scale can be more than meets the eye. Simple guiding rules transfigure chaotic movements into beautiful order. Life, as we know it, can be expressed in a similar fashion. Our decisions, unexpected occurrences, and even our seemingly meaningless place in the Universe are not just mere coincidences, but providential orchestrations of the Designer.

Automatism, 2022 • Yazid

'Automatism' is inspired by the practice of artists where they are given a writing implement and a blank surface, and they go freestyle, almost mindlessly filling up the space with whatever comes to their minds and out of their hands. I've often wondered where a machine's mind and "hand" would wander given the same opportunity.

Fermented Fruit, 2022 • cyberia

Just as food is transformed by microorganisms during the process of fermentation, the substrate of the HTML canvas is broken up into parts and transformed by cellular patterns. The project features the simulated lifeforms of cellular automata that evolve and shape-shift down an asymmetrical grid. The final artwork juxtaposes a number of textured cellular automata patterns against one another within a singular composition.

Landscape with Carbon Capture, 2022 · zancan

"Landscape with Carbon Capture" is a critique of my own environmental consciousness as an artist working with technology around natural themes. Although I do not know any solution, although I am helpless just like you, I want to fight with what I’ve got. I want to acknowledge the great hypocrisy of our times. Carbon emissions are here to stay, they'll stain my canvas, no matter how green the colours on my palette.

Cosmic Reef , 2022 · Leo Villareal

“A particular order can be found in deepest space, in our oceans and forests, and in all living things, including ourselves – a unified code producing endless variation. Gravity and cosmic winds shape star-forming nebulas into coral-like forms. Flowers self-organize in radial symmetry with signals hidden from the human eye. Stars are birthed, explode, collapse, and are reborn. Invertebrates move on the tides of oceans, signaling with ever-changing bioluminescence. Light bends time as events unfold in our own lives.”

RASTER, 2022 · itsgalo

Rasterized procedural brush strokes with low transparency slowly layer themselves over each other in a rhythmic loop until they achieve colorful equilibrium. They continue to overpaint themselves endlessly. The resulting color mixtures are then quantized and dithered to separate them into patches of pixels that recall the discrete materiality of the screen: a strictly digital variation on color field painting. The resulting texture is not a skeuomorphic grain but an overt reference to the universe of screens that surround us every day.

Wavelet Pools, 2021 · pixlpa

Dreamz, 2021 · Joshua Bagley

Dreams is an exploration of uneven subdivision. It focuses on the interaction between uniform and crooked lines, and the complex structures that can emerge from simple rules. Each iteration of Dreams is unique, with characteristics determined by the hash created at the moment of transaction.

Math Art, 2022 • Herbert W. Franke

Math Art is the first NFT drop by Herbert W. Franke, forefather of media art. This 100 piece-collection is drawn from his iconic 80s series Math Art where mathematical investigation is translated into visual art, with a stunning variety of forms that is strikingly reminiscent of Pop Art.

Loom, 2022 · Anna Lucia

QWERTY, 2022 · Tara Donovan

Each NFT in Donovan’s QWERTY series depicts rhythmic, mesmeric arrangements of a single, repeating letter or symbol represented on computer keyboards. The 26 letters and 30 symbols that make up the layered, gridded compositions of the QWERTY NFTs are rendered in varying degrees of legibility, striking a balance between recognizability and obscurity. These screen-based images take on the qualities of woven textiles, and they are the result of the artist’s meticulous pattern development, organization, and refinement, which she executed through algorithmic processes.

Contraction, 2022 · Loie Hollowell

Loie Hollowell’s first-ever NFT project centers on her embodied experiences with childbirth. Based on Hollowell’s Split Orb sculptural paintings, which she began creating following the birth of her second child, Contractions feature two bifurcated orbs situated one on top of the other, with the top orb representing the artist’s brain and the lower orb signifying her pregnant belly and cervix. This new series brings Hollowell’s explorations of bodily landscapes—with a particular focus on sex, pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood—to the digital realm.

Primitives, 2022 · Aranda\Lasch

Staccato, 2022 · Philip Bell

The process of Staccato stems from letterpress printmaking experiments with decorative typographic material. The process involves filling the letterpress with decorative borders and shapes, inking by hand, pulling a print, inspecting the result, making a small adjustment and repeating.

Act of Emotion, 2022 · Kelly Milligan

Act of Emotion investigates digitally-facilitated abstract expressionism: the act of painting itself as a means of expression, extended into mechanical reach. A reflection upon the future of automation, machine consciousness, creativity, and humankind’s inevitable consequences. As we await the next leap, we cling desperately to our belief that emotive art is an exclusively human experience.

entretiempos, 2022 • Marcelo Soria-Rodríguez

Our lives are scattered across several time scales, and the meaning of every event that takes place depends on the time scale that we choose to define & observe them from. Yet we fail to fully comprehend this in our daily errands. Entretiempos is an artwork that reflects on this, based on an aesthetic that pays a tribute to the works of Sonia Delaunay, František Kupka and other painters from their era, recreated by the usage of intersecting rings that create a varied and rich space. Click / Touch to begin the visual experience.

Fontana, 2022 · Harvey Rayner

Fontana is a playful attempt at abstractly capturing the flowing movement of a fountain using precisely drawn elements that evoke a static and considered rendering of a subject that is in constant flux. The visual language is reminiscent of hand-draughted technical drawing, a precise and methodical practice that progresses at a radically different pace to the flowing and capricious movement of water.

Himinn, 2021 • Sarah Ridgley

Himinn is a painterly cloud study exploring light, color, and the generative composition of clouds in the sky. The algorithm creates natural forms and the illusion of ever-changing atmosphere through carefully structured layers of color and shape.

Memories of Qilin, 2022 • Emily Xie

The series explores elements of folklore, evoking the mythological imagery of dragons, phoenixes, flowers, and mountains. The title references a fabled chimerical beast found throughout East Asian mythology (while the qilin is its Chinese name, it is also known in Korea as the girin and Japan as the kirin) that represents prosperity and luck.

Running Moon, 2022 · Licia He

Running Moon depicts the nuanced interaction between clouds and moonlight. It is a search for boundaries between structure and fluidity, precision and errors. It is a quest for harmony. The rendering of Running Moon is inspired by stained glass and watercolor. It captures the sharpness of the glass and the softness of light using abstract forms. As organic shapes gradually expand to fill the space, brush-pen-like stripes solder these pieces together to form intricate compositions.
