capnganj.tez, who also goes by capnganj.eth and posts under the handle @capnganj, is a pseudonymous generative artist and web3 coder based in Brooklyn, New York. Working alone under the pseudonym to separate the work from their professional life, they create generative drawings, 3D models, and photography celebrating cannabis and psychedelics culture, which they describe as positive forces changing western minds.
The mushroom motif recurs across several series, beginning with Shroom Spores, 333 one-of-one algorithmically generated drawings of psilocybin mushroom spores as seen under black light, minted on the Solana blockchain in January 2022. Further mushroom-themed series followed on fxhash between September 2022 and April 2023, including Acid Warning, Psilocybe Azurescens, Bear Prints, and Mushrooms and Skulls. Psilocybe Isabelae, a generative 3D fungi collection capped at 44 editions, minted on objkt.com in autumn 2023.
