Four events in the summer of 2022 placed fxhash-based generative art in the spotlight, putting the relationship between the legacy art world and generative art community into focus. While large legacy art world institutions (Art Basel, Sotheby's, Christie's) have begun embracing on-chain generative art, the dealer sector remains skeptical. How can a bridge of appreciation be built between these worlds to ensure an inclusive future of creativity?

We know that generative art has a rich history, but what of generative music? It too shares a rich history, yet remains a passive subcomponent within generative arts, playing an auxiliary role, or even, occasionally, added to works as an afterthought. Yet I’ve found many examples -- on both Ethereum and Tezos -- where musical elements have become more of the primary focus. Join me as I rifle through some select choices, after offering a bit of history and context to it all.

I developed an algorithm that performs raytracing/raymarching of SDFs, to produce hatched line art SVG output. This is the story of how I got from not there, to there.

Interlocutor is a series about curiosity and dialogue that focuses on my use of smartphone cameras and stock photography apps to create generative photographs. The process is tied to using the apps in ways that the designers did not intend. This sometimes crashes the application causing glitches and "bad outputs". The challenge of Interlocutor is to define a set of instructions that will allow others to create images that work within a collection. This series relies heavily on contributors and makes use of the Teia collab contract for those mints.

TGAM turns one and what a year has been. On the 31th of December 2021, a group of developers and engineers started "The Generative Art Museum", a project dedicated to spread the word about generative art. At that time, generative art was pretty much unknown. Our mission: to change that.
