Another reason why Arboreals is different. Why I keep building no matter what.
This isn’t just a digital art project. It’s rooted (pun intended) in a real forest I inherited.
It’s not just an asset, it’s a responsibility. 🌲
Man I love getting surprised with these @AIRboreals
They're so incredibly different. Looks like @arbovonderwald even teamed up wth @papa_melta on some of them. Thank you Arbo. It's truly appreciated.
GM and happy Sunday.
Early morning tree planting is done. Another 250 @AIRboreals seeded on chain, including a 1-1 that landed in @PacmanNFT's wallet.
Entry price is still low and these trees are the key to access all the art that's coming later this year.
new rough WIP for one of the new art drops coming to the random forest later this summer.
Final will be a lot sharper and cleaned up, but the bones are here:
it's a bit of a strange combination of elements...
"windows"
3D posable, stretchable, rigged characters inspired by M.U.S.C.L.E. collectibles from the 80s/90s
except with odd geometric programatically generated heads,
and eyes and mouths that function as windows to another world.
for the world inside of each character, I've build a program (rough proof of concept here) that transforms a landscape drawing into a spherical projection so that each character is essentially a viewer for a strange pseudo-3D hand drawn diorama or "digital cyclorama"

There are so many experimental art projects dropping this summer in the random forest.
I can't wait to get them all out there.
This one is "Echoes". still a wip. dropping July-Aug timeframe.
As always, owning an Arboreal Intelligence NFT will get you a mint allocation.
Will put out a roadmap this week with all the planned projects and collabs.
@sergegiminiart rewards are accumulating regardless of signing up. right now holders should have a lot of Mycelium. If you connect with your wallet it should show in your account.
The uses are limited for the moment, but that will change.
Arboreals Phase 2 is a collection of unique hand painted digital forest dwellers on @base. animals, humans, and spirits. minting slowly and deliberately in small batches since 2024.

Did I forget to mention that I have a mint coming up?
plus or minus 500 of these variationz coming soon, this time to Solana because, why not?
@AIRboreals and @ArborealDesign holders get guaranteed free mint, but what about other communities?
who wants in?
GM degens 🌳🤖
693/9999 AI-Rboreals minted.
Python + hand-drawn traits + guest artist drops = every single tree is a 1/1 vibe.
Still only 6.25 APE. The forest is printing.
Ape in before the canopy closes. https://t.co/t3KAMp4DCn

Today we celebrate the mothers and nurturers who shape our world with love and strength
just like the great forests that shelter and sustain all life. May your roots run deep and your canopy be filled with light.
Happy Mother’s Day 🌳💚 The forest is watching
But the Variationz, despite sharing Arboreal Intelligence DNA, will not abide by our rules and refuse to be "pets" or "companions"
perhaps they inherited too much free will? or as the French say, too much "esprit de contradiction"
Anyway. They are free.
coming soon.
500 supply Free mint for @AIRboreals and @ArborealDesign holders. public price 100 ETH each. or not idk. but grab an @AIRboreals for $1 now for a chance to get a @variationz_ I. https://t.co/yfFhd8n9jL
