Hyper Drive: A-Side #22

Hyper Drive is based on the mathematics of recursion. Scale symmetry is used to create patterns that repeat at ever-smaller intervals, creating the illusion of infinite depth and complexity.

The rule for the recursive loop is incredibly simple. A box is drawn, then a snapshot of the full canvas is resized to cover the boundary. As this process is repeated, small variations in position create endless fractals.

This project is an experimental cross-chain collection, with a fully-generative A-side published via Art Blocks on Ethereum and an AI-based image composition B-side published via fxhash on Tezos. The artwork symbolizes the great divides we must cross, the connections we make along the way, and the disconnections we feel. We move through the world as the world moves through us.

Hyper Drive: A-Side

Established in November 2022 as a successor to the Playground and Factory collections, Art Blocks Presents featured generative art projects that were selected by the Art Blocks team and complemented the Curated collection. The Presents collection embodied our ongoing standards for artistic creativity, conceptual rigor, and technical achievement.
