This is what I'm telling myself...

Things to do:
- Stay strong, work out, get rest.
- Build your community.
- Love your family.

Things to do if you can:
- Be heard by your reps (call/email/schedule meetings w/ them as often as possible)
- Show up for protests.
- Stop giving their businesses money (the Goods Unite Us app is somewhat useful for this).

Things to avoid:
- Feeling hopeless - things can change.
- Doomscrooling - it doesn't help you.
- Feeling alone - we are NOT alone.
Sold out! (well, slots are filled). 111 BLONKS have shifted into AIG! ๐Ÿฅณ

What renderer should I add next? ?? Really I want to know because I don't know. ๐Ÿ˜€

icymi this is 100% EVM, malleable generative art, #blonks

Announcing AIG, a new rendering algorithm for BLONKS! Edition size of 111, but this is not like a typical drop - it's FREE and you have to shapeshift your BLONKS to it to get it!

Money is cool (Eth). Programmable money is cool ($PLEDGE ERC-20). Programmable contracts are cool (EVM). Programmable art is cool (Dynamic/Responsive/Evolving NFTs).

Programmable art from a programmable contract that uses programmable money is ultra cool! (Guardian Sigils, for one).

In the Guardian Sigils contract (which generates all art code onchain, cough cough), I set a timer for 7 days to disallow multiple mints, so that the community had plenty of time to mint one if they wanted. That period just ended and by ๐Ÿ”ฎ magic โœจ the contract now alters its behavior. This is in addition to all the cool programmable stuff that the project has, including holding a tranche of the ERC-20 tokens for each NFT.

ERC-721 (Art) ๐Ÿค ERC-20 (Token)
Creator (Artist) ๐Ÿค Community (Guardians)

This. Is. Cryptoart! ๐Ÿ˜†

It's been a looong weekend, and since release on Friday, my newest #onchain project, Guardian Sigils, has seen 172 mints!

This is an experimental art collection that integrates with an experimental community coin, and so far 172 different accounts have minted! I'd like to send a huge thank you to each and every one that has engaged with the project so far. โค๏ธ

This coming Friday at 9am Eastern, the contract will start to allow multiple mints per receiving account. How long will it take to get to 777 tokens? We'll see!

Here's a really colorful one, #157

Just gonna say, massive respect to anyone who said 'no thanks' to the trump coin.

Not saying I lost respect for anyone that bought it - but def gained respect for every mf degen out there who decided against it.

Concentric Ensลs #1 has been accepted into The Durham Art Guildโ€™s 70th Annual Juried Exhibition! See it (and possibly buy it) while it's on display in Durham from Nov. 26 - Jan. 26.

This piece is from my project โ€œPainted Paths,โ€ where I use a large, customized pen plotter to execute perfectly positioned brushstrokes. While the path the brush takes is controlled by my code and the machine, the results are anything but perfect due to variation in how I load paint for each individual stroke; the surface variations in the canvas/medium; and brush, paint, humidity, drying time, or other environmental variables.

More info at my site: https://matto.xyz/project/painted-paths/
๐Ÿ“ข Announcement time!

tl;dr: Chainlife mint reopens tomorrow, noon EDT at 1/3 price ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Launched in 2022, Chainlife is an advanced onchain NFT project that inspired illustrious mintoooors and DAOs to participate. After sales slowed, I paused the project while I worked on a new plan: I cut the max mintable to 1/4, cut the price to 1/3, and airdropped 2 tokens to each owner (the new price reflects the average price paid by current owners for the tokens they hold).

About 100 tokens remain at 0.0275 Eth each. Minting will reopen at 12 noon EDT on 10/22/24. www.chainlife.xyz/mint ๐Ÿ”— ๐ŸŒฟ

Let's close this mint, slam some trees in the ground, and have Chainlife ready for whatever art comes next. ๐Ÿ‘

AnnoMetta by Matto - Collection | Art Blocks

AnnoMetta (โ€˜Annoโ€™ meaning year in Latin and โ€˜Mettaโ€™ meaning loving-kindness in Pali), is a 1/1 artwork that symbolizes community connections through a dynamic canvas. With elements shifting hourly, daily, monthly, and annually, the generative art is fully customizable via URL parameters. When viewing the live code in a token or on https://annometta.com, press 'escape' to open a customization menu. I approached this project as a way to visualize the connections between individuals. These could be simple relationships, a network or community, or an abstract representation of compassion (in the spirit of Metta). I wanted to create a single piece of art that will always change, but where a specific output can always be recreated. I feel like the longest cycle many people think about is a single year, and the starting hue of any render of this work cycles over the course of a year, just like seasons. The piece will look about the same every year on your birthday, for example, but it would never be exactly the same. Technically, new art is created every hour, but even within a single hour, multiple outputs can be made โ€“ change the window size or the screen resolution and the art changes. Everything is deterministic, meaning that there is always a reproducible pattern to the dynamic changes. No output is ever truly lost and can be recreated with the right settings. AnnoMetta can be enjoyed for free around the world and at any time, and I hope that when viewing it, one thinks of the connections and maybe even the compassion shared between us.

Like I did with BLONKS, you can incorporate the composable EtherEthos data into your onchain artwork (you can see my profile's data in the description of BLONKS 4236).

The future is composable, and this is how we start.
