✨ This week on Fx(hash): Autofocus, an open form artwork exploring how an AI tries to become self-aware. With each evolution, the artwork becomes more clear, complex and coherent, and finally reaches "autofocus". monokai.com/work/autofoc... #algorithmic #generative #fxhash

Autofocus

What happens when an AI looks inward and inspects its own mind?

Thanks @illiquidesq for minting Origin 37 💫 Fun fact: 37 is the number most people mention when tasked with naming a random number between 0 and 100.

It’s King’s Day in Amsterdam! The whole city is orange. Throwback to 5 years ago when, in the midst of the pandemic, I took photos of King’s Day when it was celebrated in a completely empty city: www.flickr.com/gp/monokai/N... #koningsdag

Last 12 months stats: monokai.pro has been visited from all over the world, except from North Korea, Somaliland and Eritrea. There was exactly 1 visitor from Greenland. Thank you for your support, friendly coder from Greenland. #monokai #coding #programming #theme

monokai @monokai.com · 27/02/2025

Origin featured as the main image on the Art Blocks marketplace: www.artblocks.io/marketplace 💫 I've spent months learning and getting this algorithm down to only 16kB. Those 16kB are responsible for generating highly detailed images in any res. #generativeart #algorithms #code

Wow. Couple of weeks ago Origin #0 was exhibited during Art Golden Gai in Shibuya, Tokyo on incredible immersive screens, showing its details in super high resolution. Photo courtesy of @artblocks.bsky.social #algorithmicart

So great to see all #genuary pieces this year. In 2024 I did a 31 day streak and made every piece a generative art system. For a whole month, I coded these in the dark early hours each day and a bit in the weekend. It was intense. All of them are here: www.fxhash.xyz/u/monobox

A Monobox is a tiny device with a slightly glitched screen. It displays a generative sketch based on the prompts of Genuary 2024 (https://genuary.art).

Origin #0 will be on exhibit on Thursday at #nftjapan and on Saturday at #ArtGoldenGAI in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Courtesy of @artblocks_io I've created a 4K version with 10K render iterations so you can enjoy it on a big screen if you're there. #algorithmicart

Another Origin collected by cubeinasphere.eth. Fitting collector name, as the cells and crumbled outer layers in Origin are built up by placing random shapes like tetrahedrons and spheres inside each other and randomly transform them. www.artblocks.io/marketplace/...

It's #Genuary! A full month of generative art, where artists create works based on daily prompts by the community. Won't be doing a streak again this year (sorry, no time), but couldn't pass my own prompt: "Layers upon layers upon layers". Made 3 variations, all created with code. #genuary2025

Collected some generative digital textiles. Silk 45 by Lammetje and Verge 55 by Buura. Created using different techniques, but both made by algorithms.

Prepare for Origin, launching next week on Artblocks Studio. Each minted edition is unique: liquid drops, sparkles, cell shapes, materials, and lighting variations make each piece one of a kind. Don't miss it, and spread the word ✨ #algorithmicart #generativeart #artblocksnft

Before the code will be stored forever on the blockchain, I cold-store it on my wall. I still find it hard to grasp how this single piece of paper contains the only necessary code to produce the otherworldly 3D images of Origin. #generativeart #algorithmicart #code

A swoosh of light carves out a rift of spacetime. No Blender, no 3D models, just 16kB of pure code. My new work Origin will soon be released on Art Blocks Studio. #algorithmicart #generativeart #digitalartwork

Origin captures a never-before-seen, strange configuration of order emerging from chaos. No AI, no Photoshop, no dependencies. An image generated in only 16kB of pure code. Soon on Art Blocks Studio. #generative #algorithmic #art

After months of learning path tracers and compacting shader code, I'm finally ready to present my next work "Origin". No AI, no Photoshop, it's a 100% code-based algorithmic artwork in only 16kB, no dependencies. Soon on Art Blocks Studio. #algorithmicart

Barbarians, a trilogy. Finally got these up on the wall. The curation process involved getting nice ones at the same aspect ratio and tell a story together, so these constraints made it extra difficult. Worth it though. #algorithmicart
