g-a's Introduction

0xstc

This page is a curated selection of my long-form generative artworks. In my artistic exploration and practice, I delve into the philosophical aspects of computation and the cognitive aspects of the mind. While new technologies emerge and fade rapidly, the overarching purpose — understanding ourselves and our place in the world — remains as crucial as ever. I find it fascinating that humanity invents and explores technological, ritualistic, or artistic tools to frame problems and devise solutions. I'm deeply impressed by our ancestors who developed ways to comprehend our environment and our relationship with reality. I see art as an autonomous expression of the aspects above, that acts as a gateway to our innate nature, aiding in understanding ourselves, our emotions, and our connections with others.

gr1dflow is a collection of artworks created through code, delving into the world of computational space. A visual grid system serves as the foundational architecture for the scenes where the depth of recursion and the grid alignment parameters are derived directly from blockchain specific metadata, like token id and the minting transaction hash on the chain. GLSL shaders are applied on the grid cells, enabling swift and seamless colour transitions using a set of manually chosen palettes. The gradients employed in this process are made using a technique called dithering, a method that can be found in retro video games, which allows for the display of a diverse visual appearance from a limited set of colours. The speed, dynamics, and density of movements can effectively communicate messages and evoke feelings that might be challenging, if not impossible, to express with words or static images. The work uses a noise function to reconfigure its grid alignment in smooth and organic ways. These changes can be experienced through a continuity of transitional flow: a constant flux of a dynamic system, with no explicit purpose, yet showing references to the aesthetic concepts above. This work is part of an ongoing artistic research on recursive ontologies.

m0-n0

m0-n0 is a realtime generative artwork, composed of deconstructed screen space. The process is based on a recursive noise function, that is altered by low-level manipulations of a fragment shader. The sound synthesis is closely related with the glitches and flaws of the unfolding image architecture. Each colour scheme activates a different set of sound generators and filter modules. The resulting composition is an audiovisual environment that slowly transforms its elements into a blend of auditive sensations and autonomous pixel configurations.

sh3ll

Appearances: Mirror.xyz publication with Highlight, Creative Applications Network

sh3ll is an audiovisual artwork created with code, algorithms and blockchain metadata. The visual structure is inspired by natural processes that can be replicated through computational methods. The sounds are generated on the fly, based on microsound synthesis. The colour palette is changing gradually, according to the iteration number of the minted token. Individual pieces belong to a larger colour transition that can be viewed over the whole series.

Metapoetry.

Following the traditions of concrete poetry, cut-up methodology, typewriter art and conceptual experiments, this piece is transforming metadata of generative token #22568 into visual poetry. The image structure is built from a randomly selected iteration of L-Template by reading the available drawing instructions from its features and combining them with the name of its owner. The arrangement of the letters is based on this formula. This rule also becomes the title of the rendered piece, which can be seen on the bottom of the scene. The titles are supplemented with the names of the collectors, who become co-authors of the final composition. Where there is no registered fx-hash user name for the selected token, “anonymous collector” will be displayed instead as the author. Being an artwork that is built on the features of another token, L-Poem intends to be a meta-token, a quasi-tautological, entangled entity whose existence is ensured by the immutable ledger environment.

r3s0

2023 GLSL / Javascript / Open Edition / Ethereum Blockchain (Optimism L2)
Appearances: Optimism Foundation We Love the Art Contest Winner (Generative Art Category, 3rd tier), 2024
View full collection

r3s0 is a real-time generative artwork, investigating algorithmic latent space through shapes, colors and slowly transforming movements. As part of my investigation of GLSL fragment shaders, it is based on a recursive noise function that is converted into different combinations of binary pattern fills. The project started out as an experiment with gating tokens through the farcaster protocol: setting up access privileges for connected friends to mint the first iterations of r3s0 as a free gift. On one hand, r3so goes for invoking resonance in terms of the appearance of the artwork: it resembles the psychedelic graphic language of the 60s, early computer graphics and op-art through minimalistic, yet vivid visual alterations of the noise function. On the other hand, it is a community experiment, where members of a decentralized community vibe and resonate together: how such social activities might unfold in the digital space? Custom software, animation, no sound.

C-Life

2023 GLSL / Javascript / WebAudio / 100 Editions / Ethereum Blockchain (Zora L2)
Appearances: Adaptér Generative Kiosk, Budapest (H)
View full collection

C-Life is an audiovisual artwork featuring abstract, generative landscapes. The visual setting comprises a light source and several vibrant cascading elements arranged in front of this radiant light. The gradual movement of these objects evokes the sensation of an opal-like glass surface, giving the impression that the display is melting due to the warmth emitted by the inner light.In the series, the palette of the landscapes gradually shifts from a small range of colors to a wider array of palette pool along the ids of the tokens. As more pieces are created in a single transaction batch, there's an increase in the speed and quantity of elements moving, resulting in a greater number of layers and sonic vibrations. The letter “C” pronounced as “sea” within the title encompasses all words that start with the letter “C”. This compression allows for an expansive and limitless range of interpretations for the scene.

tur1ng consists of audible image architectures based on the principle of Turing machines. These systems are mathematical models of computation that manipulate symbols on a strip of tape according to a table of rules. The machine first writes a symbol in a cell on the tape, then either moves the tape one cell left or right, then, based on the observed symbol and the machine's own state in the table, either proceeds to another instruction or halts computation. In tur1ng, rules are stored as colors and the original tape cells are constructed from a two dimensional array. The sound unfolds as the algorithm proceeds: monitoring these binary songs requires being attentive to changes in the state or behavior of the system over time so that appropriate interventions or other process-related activities may be carried out. Another feature of listening algorithms is that it often has to be done as a background or secondary task or, perhaps, in parallel with one or more other primary tasks.

A Cellular Dice Piece.

Dice are small, throwable objects with marked sides that can rest in multiple positions. They are used for generating random numbers, commonly as part of tabletop games, including dice games, board games, role-playing games, and games of chance. A traditional die is a cube with each of its six faces marked with a different number of dots (pips) from one to six. When thrown or rolled, the die comes to rest showing a random integer from one to six on its upper surface, with each value being equally likely. In general, dice are often used when a decision is required to be outsourced from subjective human elements into an independent, objective environment. Dotwork is displaying different rules of elementary cellular automation in the shape of variable dice constellations.
