@fchalissery @banteg Finally! I've been waiting for this.

“Invited to dive into the LACMA archives, I was immediately drawn to the chronophotographic work of Muybridge. In the 19th century, he developed new techniques to enable serial photography of people and animals in motion — images with an enigmatic quality that have been widely influential.” — @_deafbeef on his ‘Chronophotograph’ collection.

Part of Asprey Studio’s presentation at @artbasel Zero 10 in Basel, opening on 16 June 2026, is ‘Chronophotographs’ by 0xDEAFBEEF, a series of procedurally generated images seeded by the block number, depicting figurative and abstract motion in different phases.

Where pioneering English photographer Eadweard Muybridge (1830–1904) used sequential photography to analyse movement frame by frame, 0xDEAFBEEF translates this logic into blockchain-based systems. Blockchain, like chronophotography, operates as a time-based medium, with new blocks added approximately every twelve seconds.The block number at the precise moment of observation becomes the seed for the procedural generation of the image, producing snapshots of forms across phases of motion — digital chronophotographs embedded in time.

This collection encourages reflections on the perception of time, consensus reality, photography and blockchain as markers of time, as sources of objective truth, and their limitations therein.

Chronophotographs are each unique, randomly generated at the time of “observation”. The collection size is theoretically infinite — but our lifespans are finite.

Um… Claude Code just created a .claire directory? For its git worktrees.

I'm going to spend $100k this year buying cryptoart from artists trying to get established. It'll come out to around 1E per week. It's not nearly enough but hopefully it helps.

@musicalnetta, who is way better at this than I am, will be helping me. Here's how it works:

Thanks for the postcard and the note @VanArman

You're right, the Halftone geoGAN is pretty cool. One of my favorites!
