I’ve always felt this series ventures strangely close to stepping inside the (Matrix) before the illusion fully stabilizes.
Glyphs extracted from the ROM memory of 1980s HP vector displays drift forward like architectural debris from an extinct computational civilization. Letters become geometric comets following their own trajectories. There’s something oddly moving about seeing obsolete display logic continue to breathe decades later.
Everything unfolds in real-time through a custom stroke renderer. Space is constantly being rebuilt around you.
Ps. Highly recommend viewing works from this series in fullscreen. It’s the kind of digital journey that leaves you slightly disoriented by the end, wondering where exactly you were just taken.
Last week, we got a new beefy server and released a few interesting features both for ArtGod's core and specifically for the frontend for Terraforms by @mathcastles.
# Blockspace Explorer - "How do you visualize multi-decade spacetime as a map?"
A multi-level drill-down grid interface that users can navigate to see the indexer's sync progress in real-time. The pink "❀" marks the exact deployment block of Terraforms, along with a path to access it through the drill-down.
In this UI, a user can queue up long historical backfills or fill gaps in sync coverage.
Of course, the whole feature is a core part of ArtGod and works out of the box for any EVM-based collection, as well as for all collections installed in that particular ArtGod instance at the same time.
The Blockspace Explorer is already live on the public, read-only ArtGod instance that syncs Terraforms (link below).

@lapdoteth "still" because even the "good" ones are financial incentive machines that are to a large extent culturally treated as speculative assets first and foremost
we probably don't even need or want these things if we're not living in a private property-centric culture
I'm on year 5 of not caring about the price of ethereum and just using it when I need/want to.
It's a lot easier this way than worrying about if it's "dead" or not based on price momentum.
You've probably guessed by now I love house music. That's why I made a new chilled house remix of my tune Dorsal Fin. Getting ready for the summer which I think is going to be a real classic house vibe. Thanks to the Pinkington crew for doing a global dance routine for this video. Tomorrow we're going to go to Ibiza in the 1980s to keep this vibe going. @runwayml streaming everywhere yeah
this is a million times better than going to the vatican and saying "we hope the church will help you when we take your job". much props. hope to see much more of this in the future
