hashnadoes #1/11

HASHNADOES by Nathaniel Stern & Scott Kildall, and presented by EXPANDED.ART is a generative long-form series of interactive "tornadoes."

Each is literally (and literarily) made of its transaction hash: slices of spinning, cloud-like alphanumerals that are pulled directly from the blockchain, which also use your camera to follow you across your screen.

Each mint is an ecosystem of cyclones, rain, wind, and attraction, where the palettes are inspired by non-human or extraterrestrial planetary bodies, and every conceptual, aesthetic, and formal element performs some aspect of the bits and texts that make digital art "work."
