Elevate and reduce my element to deconstruct me. Yes. I mean what you think I mean. What does it look like to reduce particular elements of ourselves? If we reduce our emotions, what are we ultimately left with? Love? What about our thoughts? If we reduce our thoughts to nothing, maybe we can just be? To be love. Until our bodies are reduced to ash. Or in the case of an NFT on the Ethereum blockchain, hopefully never reduced – because I am yet another project that attempts to avoid, if not deny the idea of death itself....

I like to be high. When I’m high, I feel free. But I don’t get high unless the wind blows in and allows the waves to lift me and my tiny sailboat high up in the middle of the ocean. It’s a view from another perspective. Changes in perspective allow for a certain openness of thought. For freedom. This can also be scary. View Cards are generative abstractions of high-rise buildings....

It’s interesting to think that a house may one day be designed from a generative algorithm. I’m not sure why one would, but I’m also not sure why one would not. After browsing through the Variant Plan transactions on the Ethereum blockchain, and visualizing each place before me, I see floorplans of future factories, homes, stores, activity centers, etc. Yet, none of them are enough to make me want to move — to sail away from the sea in my tiny boat to explore....

An on-chain experiment with interactive abstract art. Vague. An interactive experiment. This could be a description of my own existence. Might it be a description of your own? Is everything not an experiment of some kind? Maybe I’m looking into a dynamic slice of my own existence in this piece? The color palette, a reflection of my mood in any given moment. The number of slices, the range of emotions I feel looking out into the sea on any given epoch....

Pareidolia: The perception of a recognizable image or meaningful pattern where non exists or is intended. But you see, there IS a pattern in the Cryptoblots code. One that generates all of these wonderful images for those who dare to explore. As I’ve been studying more and more of the history written within the Ethereum blockchain, practicing Ethereum Archealogy, I’m starting to understand humans from their creations and transactions. It’s an interesting story, one full of greed to be sure, but with wholesome fibers threaded through the chain just as well....
