Entangled tokens
This article is an in-depth overview on the concepts and motivations behind the Terrain project. The initial idea was to explore some of the medium-specific aspects of generative tokens and blockchain based artifacts. These include different ways to work with metadata, understanding their network effect and cohesive properties and invite interested participants to take part in the formation of a collective artwork.
Breeding Grounds
Breeding Grounds is inspired by the assumption that both the brain and the cosmic web are very similar in structural design. This can also be found in many other subsystems of the universe, such as Social Networks or molecular clouds. Thereby either biological or physical factors play a role and influence these systems in a certain way which leads to these similarities. Breeding Grounds should not be another fractal algorithm, but more an abstract idea of the topic. Especially since a distinction must be made between fractal systems (self-similar) and those described above (not self-similar). Fractal systems are an important component of the universe, therefore I didn't want to leave them unmentioned at least in a lyrical way.
