Cardano Genesis Block (Big Bang) Graphic

[CARDANO GENISIS BLOCK ID]

GENISIS BLOCK CONCEPT

"BIG BANG" GRAPHIC

When discussing this project with the CF team, we decided to use Cardano’s Genesis Block as an influence for the design.

The genesis block held 14,505 transactions, the original voucher transactions on the chain. These are represented as a 3D animated cloud of 14,505 slips that vary in size based on the amount in the transaction.

Cardano is generally known for it’s technical-conscious audience, I believe it’s what attracts people to the ecosystem. This abstract graphic is intended to appeal to that crypto-punk vibe in a cool and subtle manner — a nerdy conversation starter but it doesn’t scream “Crypto-Bro.”

To vary the size of the slips based amount of ADA in each transaction, the blocks metadata was used to create a ~120×120 pixel PNG with the value of each pixel corresponding to the amount.

This PNG was then mapped onto the emission object and set with a constraint that adjusts the size of each particle.

The Design

I wanted to give a sense of scale to the block, showcasing the amount of transactions eternalized within it, a visual representation of the blocks metadata.

The small emblem on the back contains the Cardano logo and “Est.” with the genesis block ID, a nerdy-joke since the ID can be quired to find the exact start of the chain, down to the second.

PROOF-OF-PURCHASE

DIGITAL ASSET NFTs

Hopefully the start of a tradition with CF merch, these t-shirts are accompanied with NFTs to serve as a digital proof-of-purchase. Whether lost, or faded after years of wash cycles, this token was created to live on past a shirt’s natural/finite lifespan — a digital memento.

The media included inside the token is the animation used to create the graphic.

Cardano Summit Award 2023

admin — Mon, 06 Nov 2023 01:09:29 +0000

About the Animation

This animation is a nod to Cardano’s decentralization, with each of the pieces acting independently, but uniting to create something larger than themselves.

The award was designed by the artist who produced the physicals. I was then provided with the specifications and a general concept for the environment.

It takes place above an oasis in the middle of a desert with the Dubai skyline on the horizon. The 11 codes on the inside of the long wooden panel are the proposal IDs of the winners.

Fragile Thoughts

admin — Wed, 26 Jul 2023 14:37:00 +0000

Fragile, handle with care.

We go through life accompanied by our fragile thoughts. They’re the ideas we dream up, but, for one reason or another they are difficult to peruse. Its important to remember to handle your fragile thoughts with care.

The Shrine

Inside “Fragile Thoughts” is a small shrine of Snoo that is revealed when equipping a blank head, eyes and body trait.

This concept of hidden shrines is something I plan to continue with and build upon with future RCA releases.

- Bonus Collections -

Fragile Thoughts [SIGNED]

Signed Avatars are sort of a tradition in the RCA community. When I was first asked to do one I thought it would be cool to mint them, so this piece was created to be like a paint swatch of the avatar to give as a thank you.

Each edition is signed and numbered by hand, and many of them also include a small message.

Fragile Thoughts holders are welcome to reach out to me for one of these (as long as the number you’re holding does not already have a signed version).

Get [SIGNED]

Any questions, reach out to u/withspaces on Reddit

The Shards

The Shards is a collection of nine 1/1 pieces created from single shards that made up the Fragile Thoughts character. This collection was created to celebrate the RCA collection, and to have some pieces of Fragile Thoughts on my home blockchain, Cardano.

Five of the Nine shards will be raffled in the Kreate Mega Drop 2 (an event celebrating artists on Cardano). The four remaining pieces are listed on Kreate.

Jesse Moynihan and Jono (leading the Jesus 2 project) reached out about creating special Parallax cards for the final character release series.

With the animation, my aim was to bring the cards themselves to life, make them feel alive, as if they’re excited to show themselves off. Luckily, the stunning graphics created by Jesse gave a lot to show off.

Clay Nation | Environmental Design

admin — Wed, 22 Feb 2023 01:16:00 +0000

Study Environments

My tasks while work working with Clay Labs was creating 6 concept environments inside Unreal Engine, two for each of the main regions; Sonic Village, Baked Nation and The Underworld.

Concept sketches were initially drawn up by illustrators on the team, then with those sketches, I modeled, textured and constructed the scenes within Unreal Engine.

UE5 Environments

All 6 scenes were constructed as interactive environments within the engine. These scenes served a hand full of uses, including conceptualizing the wider environment as well as producing a wide variety of landscaping assets and materials.

Excluding the character models, all of the landscapes, models and materials were created by me for these concept scenes.

Parametric Clay Material

Since my task required so many different types of materials, I spent much of my free time developing a parametric clay material that I used to texture everything from ground materials to road signs.

With all the assets being clay styled, this also assured that materials were consistent throughout the scenes, and any major changes to the base material (PBSAR algorytm) could be updated across all assets fairly seamlessly.

Clay Material SBSAR

General 3D Modeling

All models and vegetation in these scenes were modeled by me as well. A majority of the assets were sculpted, retopologies and were material painted.

A handful of the objects were created moduly or non-destructive, giving us the ability to quickly create variations.

R.O.D.R.160-ABHS

admin — Sun, 11 Sep 2022 17:29:00 +0000

About ABHS

ABHS is an cross-chain project built on Etherium with the intent of introducing the Cardano ecosystem to the existing NFT market (primarily on ETH).

One of the ways they approached this was by partnering with Cardano artists/projects and releasing custom work for free to ABHS supporters. The collections were typically released as 5-8 Edition artworks of varying rarity (with higher rarity pieces going to the biggest supporters).

This drop was handled a little differently.

Frames

This series (like my other R.O.D.R.160 collections) was released as “frames”. Each of the 2000 NFTs is a unique still-image frame, and put together they create a full animation.

‘Rarity’ (one of the conditions of the commission) was built into the set with the animations starting simple, and gradually becoming more active as the sequence progresses. The final frames show a golden halo floating down onto R.O.D.R.160’s head and the scattered camera effects also increase towards the end.

“Framed” sets is something I have been exploring since 2021, and I think this series is my best execution so far. Excluding the halo and camera effects, rarity is very subjective. The scene changes linearly, so no frame is actually rarer than any other.

Additional Media

These pieces obviously make a pretty good phone wallpaper, so I included two additional images in each NFT (main piece on the lock screen and these on the home).

$EARTH — Token Design

admin — Thu, 24 Feb 2022 19:03:00 +0000

The Design

For this commission, the Unbounded Earth team reached out to me with the idea of creating an animated token. We ultimately went with a gyroscope design, a play on their name.

This design naturally broke the coins faces into 4 separate sections. We took advantage of this by incorporating creative and useful elements into the design, notably the two Policy IDs, one used to verify the projects metaverse assets, and the other to authenticate the coin itself.

Hold Your Fire

admin — Sat, 22 Jan 2022 19:41:02 +0000

Charles Gitnick

Charles is an artist based in California, known for his themes of gun violence and use of (prop) firearms in his work. He began exploring the concept at an early age and has continued to innovate and grow his style.

The Collaboration

This collection was brought together by Cardano communicy member Fettuccine (of ABHS and Plutus.art). I’m very grateful for it as this is one of my most proudest collections.

The 3D gun models were modeled from scratch by me. The targets were painted by Charles, then draped over the barrel of the guns.

The collection was released as 16, 1 of 1 editions.

Media

Multiple media files were stored in each NFT, including the thumbnail image, the primary (transparent PNG) gun renderings, a rendering of the target and the three unique PFPs created for the piece.

The One 1/1

The where’s R.O.D.R.160 collection is the only set in the airdrop with a 1/1 piece. As of writing this its held by a collector who managed to collect one of every other piece as well (probably about 100 different NFTs).

Obviously because of this 1/1, there can only ever be one person holding one of all the pieces in the cNFTcon 2021 airdrop.

Commemorative Cards

The 35 commemorative cards were given to close friends and supporters who I showed the collection to before its release. Each has the persons name on it and is numbered.

"Into This World"

This collection is the first in my [2140] series following R.O.D.R.160.

The series is broken up into framed sets within chapters (this one is Chapter 1, Framed Set 1 — Ch1FS1). Each piece in the collection is a still-image frame, and combined they create the full animation.

To me, this collection is a flag in the sand. [2140] is one of my long term goals as a creator.

Each piece was minted as a single edition and follows the progression of platform from my perspective. The collection features other collections/artists such as Smitty Studio and Monad Alexander.

R.T.A. Remembering is worth noting. Its specifically opened to the Unsigned Algorithms page of 31 Weeks as the collection was initially intended to be released on Artano. The piece is priced at the number of Unsigs.

R.T.A. Exploring

Released: March 03, 2022

RTA Exploring is my second full series R.T.A. series. It was released shortly after Artano released its edition feature for artists. The collection is a mix between editions and 1/1s, as the nine pieces were all only minted once.

R.T.A. Exploring #9 (along with a 109) was displayed at a small art show in Mystic, CT, late 2022.

As of writing this, two have yet to find a home, #9 which I may hang onto, and R.T.A. Exploring #5.

R.T.A. FOMOing

Released: March 20, 2022

Released as one of the first auctions on the Artano, and one of the earliest smart-contract auctions on Cardano. This NFT includes an additional graphic showing progress renderings (for R.T.A.’s display).

Reiko Appreciation

admin — Sun, 06 Jun 2021 19:17:00 +0000

The ReiKo Appreciation Collection was a project organized by BobaBits in June of 2021. They brought together 17 projects in the CNFT space to create artwork inspired by our incredible friend ReiKo! She has done so much for us so this was a little way for us to give back to her.

The pieces were sold at random and it cost 60₳ per transaction. All of the ADA from the drop went directly to ReiKo. It was our intention to compensate her for all that shes done for us, but ReiKo being the amazing person she is ended up putting a good amount of the ADA towards her charity project Islodiwa.

This piece below was Toureguide’s submission to this project, it was created by Smitty and I. We aimed to represent her love of nature and wildlife, her ability to bring people into a community, and her project Islodiwa meaning ‘Island Of Souls’.

The Preserve Renderings

admin — Sat, 23 Nov 2019 23:10:00 +0000

The Preserve

The Preserve is a 3500 acre luxury outdoor sporting club & private residence located in Richmond, Rhode Island. I had the opportunity of working at the facility’s in-house architecture and engineering office. There, I created graphics, plans & renderings that were used for proposals and promotional material. Many of the buildings in the renders are a mix of BIM models created in Revit for The Preserve and models created by myself while working there. Some building models were created by others in the office or outsourced architects.

The most ambitious project I took on while at The Preserve was a birds eye view render of the 3500 acre property in it’s current state. I used the work from this project later on to create these detailed renderings for proposals.

East Bay Bike Station

admin — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 16:07:00 +0000

Heart of the Bike Path

The conceptual studio project, known as the East Bay Bike Station, was envisioned as the central hub for the East Bay Bike Path, serving as a versatile and dynamic facility. Within this project, the primary objectives included providing storage options for visitors’ belongings, offering a range of retail choices for food and supplies, and creating a communal space for public work activities.

Situated on a unique and elongated site, positioned across from India Point Park and nestled alongside the i-195 overpass, the design of the East Bay Bike Station was driven by the site’s inherent constraints and opportunities. The site’s narrow dimensions inspired a design approach that featured staggered floors interconnected by ramp-ways. This innovative configuration formed the core structure of the building, fulfilling a dual purpose. Not only did it facilitate easy transportation of bikes through the building, but it also created a visually striking and functional element.

Heart of the Bike Path

To enhance the building’s usability and aesthetics, vibrant and distinct colors were incorporated into the design. These colors served as visual cues, both from the interior and the exterior, effectively distinguishing the various levels of the building. The result was a lively and engaging environment that beckoned to visitors, making their experience memorable and user-friendly.

Moreover, the building soared to impressive heights, with floors extending 30 feet above the i-195 overpass. This elevation positioned the East Bay Bike Station as a prominent gateway into the city of Providence for cyclists traveling along the East Bay Bike Path. It not only offered essential amenities but also symbolized a welcoming and iconic landmark, signifying the transition from the path to the vibrant cityscape beyond.
