Richtext: The Fingerprints DAO collection is founded on the principle that it’s the smart contract, not the token, that is the art. For an artwork to be eligible for our collection, it must derive artistic value from a creative use of smart contracts. While it may be early, we believe that smart contract art, leveraging the full power of the blockchain, is one of the most significant artistic developments of this century. Every artwork that enters our collection is assessed within a framework composed of four main categories. These categories reflect the most innovative features and uses of smart contracts. An artwork is included in a category if the corresponding feature is an integral part of its aesthetics or conceptual thrust. Once an artwork meets this requirement, a separate assessment is made as to whether that work is a Tier 1 example of its category. This judgment is made collectively by DAO members and then executed on by the Curation and Acquisition Committee.

Richtext: ###What is Mutant Garden? Mutant Garden Seeder consists of 512 generative unique Ethereum NFTs by me, Harm van den Dorpel, released in collaboration with Folia in 2021. ###How does it work? Only one mutant can be minted per block number. The transaction hash of this chosen birth block is taken as a seed for a deterministic random function, used to populate a cartesian genetic network (“chromosome”) and functions as a Turing complete machine, which executes to generate visual artworks (“phenotype”): User chosen seed block → Block hash → Properties + seed number → Deterministic random function → Cartesian genetic network + window dimensions → SVG → Artwork Additionally, mutants mutate over time by themselves, based on the similarity of the seed block hash and the current block hash. ###How can I view my mutant? Mutant Garden NFTs can be watched on the Mutant Garden Seeder website, where the birth state and all later mutations can be inspected. As each mutant is in essence a simple computer program, it can be executed in the browser in various screen resolutions and screen aspect ratios (perhaps this can be considered to be the phenotype-affecting environment). Mutants are responsive. The amount of available window pixels (X/Y) is used as input in the parsing of the program, which means that one mutant will have infinite renderings. Some render predictably on different window sizes, some more surprisingly.

Richtext: ###What are all the fixed attributes/properties a mutant can have? “Complexity”, “color mode”, and “mutation frequency” are fixed upon birth and do not change over time. ###What is complexity? The algorithm used to generate the recursive modular graphics is an implementation of a Cartesian genetic network. These evolutionary algorithms define a 2-dimensional grid of layers and nodes. The complexity of a mutant is directly correlated to the amount of layers. Fewer layers generate lower complexity, many layers have the potential for high complexity. ###What is color mode? Each mutant has a color palette with a fixed amount of reusable colors. Some mutants use RGB colors (“Contrastful”), some HSL (“Balanced”), and some both (“Complex”). ###What are “coding genes”? Within Mutant Garden, nodes ("genes") contain drawing or branching instructions, and pointers to memory locations. The total number of genes is defined as layers × nodes So the “coding genes” percentage can be calculated with: (N nodes visited during network traversal) / (total genes) × 100 The mutation algorithm favours mutations in already coding genes, which causes more visual changes to occur, because mutations in non-coding genes would very often not cause any noticeable changes. This means that the coding genes property probably slowly increases as the mutant gets older.

Richtext: ###How often does a mutant mutate? At birth, each mutant receives a fixed mutation probability, based on the seed block hash. The most stable mutants mutate maybe once every five months, and the most dynamic ones mutate every single day. Each block, for each individual mutant, its seed block hash is compared with the current block hash. From binary representations of these hashes, when the first N digits are equal, a mutation occurs. The decision which gene to mutate and to what, is dictated by the current block hash. This means that mutations, even though they are random and unpredictable, are fully deterministic. ###Where is the data stored? The block hash on which the mutants’ birth state and properties are based, is stored on-chain. The seed block number is conveniently identical to the token ID. Only one mutant can be minted per block number. Mutations that occur later in the life of a mutant are also based on block hashes, so these are already known on-chain. The final artwork is an ever growing sequence of SVG files of the birth state and mutation states. These SVG files can always be deterministically recalculated by the Mutant Garden Seeder Daemon as well as the standalone Electron desktop app (soon to be released). Currently the rendered SVGs are stored on the same dedicated server that renders them, but I have scheduled to migrate the rendered assets and metadata to a durable decentralised storage solution. ###What happens if Mutant Garden goes “offline”? The metadata of the token references the most recent mutation. This means that in the unlikely event that Mutant Garden would go offline, this last mutation remains accessible as a “fossil”, which is also a poetically satisfying outcome to me.

Richtext: Zone de Sensibilité Picturale Immatérielle (Zone of immaterial pictorial sensibility) is an artist's book and performance by the French artist Yves Klein. The work involved the sale of documentation of ownership of empty space (the Immaterial Zone), taking the form of a receipt, in exchange for gold; if the buyer wished, the piece could then be completed in an elaborate ritual in which the buyer would burn the receipt, and Klein would throw half of the gold into the Seine. The ritual would be performed in the presence of an art critic or distinguished dealer, an art museum director and at least two witnesses. Between the creation of the piece in 1959 and his death on June 6, 1962, eight Zones were sold, of which at least three involved the elaborate ritual. "Klein's receipts verify the existence of an invisible work of art, which prove that a formal sale has taken place. As Klein establishes in his 'Ritual Rules', each buyer has two possibilities; If he pays the amount of gold agreed upon in exchange for a receipt, Klein keeps all of the gold, and the buyer does not really acquire the "authentic immaterial value" of the work. The second possibility is to buy an immaterial zone for gold and then to burn the receipt. Through this act, a perfect, definitive immaterialization is achieved, as well as the absolute inclusion of the buyer in the immaterial.... Klein presents capitalist trading strategies and illuminates his ideas about the indefinable, incalculable value of art." The piece is often seen as an early example of conceptual art.

Richtext: Digital Zones of Immaterial Pictorial Sensibility will be sold for quantities of the cryptocurrency ether (symbol: ΞTH) rather than gold. This transaction is documented through the transfer of a digital token rather than a paper receipt. The use of digital token has numerous advantages over Klein’s original paper notes. Firstly, selling the artwork through a smart contract is in keeping with Klein’s statement (written in the margins of his “Rules For The Relinquishment”) that Zones may be purchased anonymously. Secondly, the digital token is easier to exchange, and makes the asset considerably more liquid. Thirdly, the smart contract guarantees the limited issuance of the artwork. An audit of the contract proves that it is impossible for more than 101 Digital Zones to ever be sold, and that it is impossible to forge a token. Finally, using the ethereum blockchain to exchange Digital Zones ensures that the provenance of each Digital Zone is always documented. (On this last point: I expect that institutional curators and commercial gallerists dealing in digital art will appreciate the transaction model this project provides, and may even try to emulate it.) Beyond any practical benefits to the use of tokens, however, I am most pleased with the way this technology extends and improves the conceptual alignment of the artwork and its transaction model. The sale of a Digital Zone produces a type of documentation that is as verifiable and presentable as a paper receipt, but also non-physical. Hence, even the formal, transactional element of the project has been immaterialized. The difference between the transactable artwork and the essential artwork is defined by degrees of immateriality .

Richtext: #Series 2 - Transmission Generative on-chain audiovisual packed with subliminal messages documenting some of the "spirit of this age". Visuals inspired by ANSI terminal and noisy video signals. Synthesized percussion and randomized rhythms. While many generative collections of art feature a widely varying parameter space, this collection instead has its parameters finely tuned and tightly constrained. The time dependent process is still seeded by the random hash value so that each are unique, but they have the same flavor and can be thought of as "prints" of the original artwork. The code that generates the audiovisual is stored completely on-chain, allowing a user to reconstruct the media without having to trust IPFS or external storage.
