SHORTLIST

→'THE POEM' (2023), Vadim Epstein & COH

An artistic exploration of language through its manifestation in poetry and mathematics, viewed as essential media defining the universum - from perceptible to conceivable, to unimaginable.

[vadim epstein @eps696]

a brief look at the nature of consciousness (human and not), through my own sense of the self switching off and back on, and modern theories ::

major update to Assembly, my open framework for agentic multimedia narrative generation.

- dog mode: an attempt at an artificial curiosity engine. No goal, no brief. It wanders the web, keeps a graph of what it knows, and narrates whatever catches its attention. concepts for search probes are picked by a quantum walk over the graph; attention is alife-style: strands of interest grow on contact, decay, merge, and die.

- flow mode: give it a brief. it plans, picks its moves, and an independent judge decides when it's done.
- world graph: characters, places, events and open threads, with claims tied to sources, so the narration stays grounded in what the system found.
- browser UI: launch, fork, watch, steer and trace every run.
- telegram: steer a run or join it as your own persona.
- also, branching from any fragment, LLM cost presets, and more.

recent awards ::
Mothion Blur @ quantum hackathon, Horror Vacui @ NeurIPS 2026

my Mothion Blur won the “Moving Image” award at Moth Hack, the quantum hackathon. that's a video effect built on Quantum Blur along time axis, smearing, echoing and folding motion.
hackathon: https://t.co/VIEz5kZB8X

demo: https://t.co/ctexPGInlV

Horror Vacui has been accepted to the NeurIPS 2026 Creative AI Track and invited for presentation. it's especially meaningful as the work is quite controversial: it uses “AI slop” as an expressive medium, which most galleries or festivals would reject straight away - so glad it found a place where that tension is part of the conversation.

[Art-Incubator @VilleDeVille]

One work out. Two pieces of hic et nunc history in.
The Art-Incubator keeps moving in Tezos! 🔄

CIRCULATED:
Call of the night by @rocc_ano to @iamcfw

COLLECTED:
prayer minor & prayer major by @eps696
Both from the hic et nunc era 2021.

Every transaction adds to a public provenance chain. As always, at least 50% of sales returns to the ecosystem through new acquisitions, positioning art for the long term.

Happy Tezos Tuesday!
