An unexpected easter-egg of The Creation:

Tiles are minted. They are sent and now they belong to their collectors.

However, high gas fees caused a contract bug double mint for two of the tiles, and they're sent that way.

Duplicates!!

The collectors are notified.

This contract failure made me very confused at first.
I was not sure about how to feel or respond.

But then I noticed the "bugged" tiles.

"The Notch" and "Millions of Words".

If I had to pick two tiles to summarize this drop I would pick these two.

One for being "the most wanted" aka "adam's penis" and the other one for representing millions of words from "the community" about this drop.

The Creation is ready.

At the moment, tiles are being minted and sent to their collectors.

What about the final twist?

Each tile shows their individual names.
Why does this matter?

Each of them is a unique piece of art.

Let's walk around this virtual gallery of 181 artworks. Here's a couple of them:

I do not think I am, in any way, in the position to give suggestions to others in this new medium, cryptoart.

No one is.

However, I can share my ideas. Everything is personal, but, I will try to provide as many points as possible for an approach of success..

First of all, I see this as a new medium rather than a new marketplace. This shapes a lot of things in my work(s).

A new medium means new ways of communication to begin with.

In other words, yes, tokenizing old works makes a lot of sense from a blockchain/history point of view, which I sometimes do, and will keep doing - but also, designing* something new for this brand new medium that explores new paths, is vitally important.

From a creator point of view, anything can feed creation. A moment of inspiration. A piece of music. A smell. Anything that triggers the chain reaction of the mind, an impulse, a spark of insanity, a touch.

After all, we consume what consumes us.

From a designer point of view, problems feed creation. They expect to be seen, giggle every time we take a step into their riddles, and finally, a resolution. A design. An answer. Simple. Beautiful.
