An hour after receiving the Axidraw A1 from Evil Mad Scientist and the various parts were assembled,
Monoliths #000 was in the works, and it remained so for 3 days (with pauses, not many ). There had been no trial or test.
It was my first plotter work at this scale, a genesis piece of sorts, and for that reason I wanted to give it a treatment similar to the Oak Tree : cut it in small pieces and distribute it as NFTs+physical.
This is when the idea of using fx_hash started to grow, and obsessed me for days.
It appeared that it wasn't technically possible to distribute a finite ensemble of exclusive items across minters.
This is the only thing that saved Monoliths #000 from becoming a decentralized physical drawing.
But the seed was planted, and that seed would be Monoliths #000. Its exact algorithm and variables setup serve as a basis for all the "Monoliths" in "Garden, Monoliths". A common ancestor.
This NFT is bound to the physical drawing :
There are visible artefacts on the physical drawing :
The NFT image is not a photograph of the physical drawing, but it is made directly from the exact source file that was used to control the pen plotter. Format : PNG Resolution :3684x5000
