The shape is there, but when you think you see all of it, it fades away.

Magical effects using primarily the size of each pixel as the tool.

This reminds me of streets in a dense city center. The kind of old town built way before anyone thought of making cars.

I love the larger shapes that emerge from areas of parallel lines. Zooming in there’s even another layer of less prominent lines.

Same series, very different feel. You get a glimpse of what you want (the red), but it’s obscured by all the obstacles you need to overcome first (the black). This resonates so deeply.

One of my favorite pieces from this series. The red and silver go great together and the patterns are beautiful. I also like that this particular piece has no border.

Even if an image is a thousand words, it still doesn’t do this piece justice. It’s an amazing particle simulation where you can change viewpoint in real-time. Feels truly immersive. But the image is great too.

Looking closely at this piece, I was suddenly transported to the rings of Saturn, looking down at the planet. So surreal!

I really like how the lines at the bottom are distinctly different from the upper half. The colors used for the lines are also very nice.

Pausing to admire the colors in this piece. The peaks and valleys are very nice as well, and there’s lots of detail when looking up close. I have several pieces from this series and the color palettes are all great.

If I said this is not drawn by pencil, would you believe it? Zoom and you’ll see uneven line thickness, varying length of parallel lines, and more. Amazing attention to detail!

I really like how this piece portrays the building and its relation to the outdoors.

Like a flock of birds, moving in patterns that are bigger than each one.

This b&w iteration emphasizes the pattern and doesn’t let you get sidetracked by pretty colors. Very refreshing.

This series perfectly illustrates how our digital presence is made up of pixels. Varying the size emphasizes the role they play.

Zooming out there’s beautiful gradients. Zooming in, it’s all just pixels in various solid colors. Fascinating.

Here we go, vaulted more DEGEN to extend the lock for 3 more months 🚀

Important in order to keep getting a daily tip allowance, if I read the FAQ right.
Structure with satisfying order and regularity. But at the same time it has a playful mix of shapes with seemingly random placement. Randomness within the confines of the structure. And a very nice gradient.

A range of marbles from nearly perfect to completely distorted. It’s impressive how the distortions follow the round shapes and somehow coexist with the marble, not overshadowing it.

I see both an eye and a koi fish.

My first and only decal. It’s really cool that it’s generative so each one is different. The signature style is evident and cleverly adapted to the decal theme.

A few patches of paint on an infinite canvas. Subtle use of structure with an angled pattern. The minimal composition emphasizes the patches that are indeed there.

Sometimes all you need are some lines and a great palette. This piece has impressive depth for the amount of lines used. A barrel that seems to be floating. Truly love these colors.

This piece gives off a cold, windy feel with this particular palette and these patterns. Very fitting for the colder time of year we’re heading for.

The technique of drawing long flowing lines as a series of alternating fragments results in a nice organic effect.

The surface here is so unique with its glossy, thick 3D appearance. Stands out among the code-based art.

It’s a snapshot of movement from a constantly changing animated piece, offering infinite art.

I keep coming back to this beautiful series. The way it imitates paint so masterfully never ceases to amaze.

The red specks on the ice blue background draw you in. And there’s a lot more to see once you focus on the details.

Same series, very different expression. The equal halves naturally create a light vs dark, good vs bad scenario. Pattern reminds me of figures, almost like two figures dancing or fighting? These swirls are so good.

Deep and dramatic, like stormy seas at night. I like how it’s using all the space towards the edges. That gives the impression that we only see a part of what’s going on and don’t have the full picture. So mysterious.

A very nice swirl with fantastic colors radiating out from the center. Admiring art like this, that has so much energy, has a very positive effect on me.

I just made this my phone wallpaper.

Third and final piece of the trilogy, the Ego. Here it’s all about appearances. Do we even share anything of what’s going inside? The chaos is masterfully hidden with years of experience tuning and tweaking our interface to the world. Should really open up more.

Part two of the trilogy, the superego. Starting to put on layers and layers of social norms, guardrails, limitations, worries and fears. Notably calmer compared to id, which checks out.

I like how the piece resembles a figure without becoming too realistic.
