1/12 My subscribers, mostly generative art enthusiasts, I want to shine a spotlight on an under-appreciated project. A new chapter in the generative art and creative coding narrative is being crafted, led by @piterpasma.

2/12 The project I'm highlighting is Universal Rayhatcher. We've recently seen numerous generative art variations, symbiotic unions with diverse art forms, code combinations, and existing images. Yet, we must remember that this stems from the pure code and the image it generates.

3/12 This art form is akin to magic, and Piter Pasma is the wizard allowing us to experience it. Instead of divulging the project's specifics and breadth of possibilities (which are limitless), I'll reserve that for the final tweet with all the links.

4/12 So, what does this project mean to me? It's groundbreaking both in mechanics and execution. The resultant images always bear Piter Pasma's aesthetic signature. It is unique and identifiable and requires Piter Pasma's approval, making each piece an official collaboration.

5/12 This project poses an intellectual challenge for everyone, even seasoned generative art veterans, as only a few have worked with SDF. This specifically refers to the demoscene and minimalist projects, as you only have 500 characters to create.

6/12 It's worth mentioning that the artworks created by artists engaged with the project have already surpassed the author's expectations. The project is an open platform for realizing the most incredible fantasies.

7/12 Most importantly, this project offers new opportunities for all, thanks to the knowledge it imparts. It's spawning a community around itself, with artists penning articles, sharing views, and the market responding favorably to each new piece, reconfirming the project's value

8/12 Generative Art, NFT, and Tezos don't get much attention these days, but that doesn't matter. Although only real coders understand the complexity and uniqueness of this project, its aesthetics are clear to everyone.

9/12 I invite you to participate in this project as creators or collectors and tell about it to those interested in generative art and creative coding. Or unwilling to pass by genuinely outstanding projects.
