I've often considered the process to be as interesting, and sometimes more so, than the final creation.
I went into this project with a simple goal: create a generative piece inspired by CryptoCube#7. The main design elements I borrowed were the color scheme and shape. #7 was fairly compact, overall cubic, and had a wide range of cube sizes.
I decided to draw a cube with nothing but randomly plotted lines. These lines would be drawn between the frame edges of a cube, defined by sketching the frame out on a 10x10 grid. This process would be reused again and again to create the multi-cube pieces. These would have additional plots of their respective starter cube, with random sizes and placements. I imagined it being similar to Han's initial algo design.
One million lines is a generative art piece, with design constraints that were introduced to recreate the spirit of CryptoCube#7. This was a highly iterative process as I tried to capture pieces which reminded me of #7 solely with the use of the algo I had created. This 1/1 will also act as a key to a smart contract that can unlock the frames and SVG text for all of the pieces in the final gif, as well as some bonus ""fail"" multi-cubes. The process is visible to all, but the NFTs can only be unlocked by making the decision to lock this 1/1 forever within the time capsule contract. It's not fractionalization, but rather the ability to trade a final creation for the process that created it.
