ARTIST PROOF This is the first minting and test artwork for the DEyes Ascended Collection. Burning these artworks was very hard for me as they are my creations, but I had to test the mechanics of the smart contract and walk down the road that others would journey after. This artwork was created by burning 5 DecentralEyesMashup (DEyes), which were one of the 3 genesis projects released on ASYNC Blueprints. Artworks Burned: #532, #608, #163, #165, #187 https://opensea.io/collection/decentraleyesmashup-by-coldie DEyes is a generative edition celebrating the Decentral Eyes OG portrait series. This edition uses 12 layers to create 623 unique 1/1 portrait artworks featuring 9 faces who have shaped the early days of the decentralized blockchain revolution. Vitalik Buterin Andreas Antonopoulos John McAfee Edward Snowden Julian Assange Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss Dalai Lama Warren Buffett Alan Turing 9 is the number of completion. It represents the end of this cycle and the beginning of the next cycle. The edition number of 623 is a symbolic number that represents the first time I publically displayed any version of the Decentral Eyes series. A physical print version of the Vitalik Buterin portrait at the NAC crypto conference in San Francisco on 6/23/18 was the genesis release date. This ascended artwork signifies the transition to another dimension, away from 2D and into mixed reality 3D/AR/VR.
