IMPORTANT NOTES

• Each wave will last one hour. The mint will pause shortly while I update the WL between each wave which can take ~5 minutes before restarting the mint.
• Art will reveal 24 hours after mint at 2:00 pm PST Thursday, March 7.
• The WL is over-allocated to reward those who have been following and are ready to mint. If you miss getting one I'm sorry, this is a special and very limited collection. I will have more projects in the future for COFFINS holders.
• The mint was already postponed once because of high gas, so I hope most of you were able to bridge already since gas is still high. I cannot control that, but minting on Base should not be expensive once you're there.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Each output in the Droppers collection is generated using a multi-modal workflow integrating four different programs. The average processing time of each piece is 2.5 hours and involves prompt engineering, text-to-image development, curation, upscaling, multiple coloring steps, manual editing, and finally compression.

Creation through seven distinct phases across ChatGPT, Midjourney, Lightroom, and Photoshop is how these artworks achieve a high standard of design quality and originality within the emerging generative Ai art genre.

This series evokes the legacy of iconic generative projects while carving its own niche in the art NFT space. The works utilize a minimalist approach, employing geometric primitives reminiscent of the early days of computer graphics, yet they burst with a potent color palette that ranges from vibrant reds to soothing purples and electric pinks, anchored by the depth of blacks and the serenity of whites and grays.

The palette is used to create circles of varying sizes and opacities that appear to float or drip down the canvas, creating a rhythm that is at once random and harmonious. The use of watercolor-like textures introduces a tactile dimension that contrasts with the precision of digital creation, suggesting a synthesis between the organic and the algorithmic.

The project's visual language nods to the duality of chaos and control inherent in both art and life—a theme resonant in the history of digital abstract expressionism. The basic yet expressive forms, with their varying outlines, coalesce into a grid-like pattern, hinting at the underlying structure of code and the grid's historical significance in computer science and generative art.

Droppers exemplifies a multi-modal development process, integrating four distinct design programs into a proprietary workflow, where the interplay between algorithmic precision and human aesthetic judgment results in a body of work that is as much an exploration of technological prowess as it is a deep, introspective look into the nature of creation itself.

The artworks stand as a testament to the evolving narrative of art in the age of blockchain, inviting collectors and enthusiasts to engage with a project that is rooted in the history of art and forward-thinking in its execution—a true representation of the potential that lies at the intersection of AI and human creativity.
