The output of MAGNETIK reminds me of what tornadoes do to our cities and buildings, yet I imagine the pieces that are about to break off and fly away to be made of metal foil and they do so because of a magnetic force that is pulling them away from where they belong… This one is also a charity run :
-
20% of the primary sales will go directly to the Processing Foundation,
-
Remaining 80% will be donated to a group of individuals that raise money to buy computers for less fortunate architecture students in a university in the eastern part of Turkey. Please read the next paragraph for a detailed explanation
-
I will decide what to do with the secondary sales later if there will be any.
About the majority (80%) of the donation : I decided that the donations should be done in a double-blind way, the donator does not know who they are donating to, and the receivers of the donation will not know from whom the donation is coming from, hence I will transfer the funds these individuals mentioned to act as a middle-step. I feel like this is a hard thing to provide a solid proof for, so I recommend if you have doubts and/or straight away do not trust me or this process, do not mint. I will only be able to provide proof of transfer of funds to a third-party. I trust the people I am sending the funds to, we have done this before (not to brag or anything) and I know that we are affecting younger people’s life in a good way. Also, I believe that the funds raised from this project alone will not be enough to buy one decent config. computer by itself, if it were so, I would have done it differently. About MAGNETIK : MAGNETIK plays on the idea of distorting and breaking grids by employing an illusion of fake 3D and tries to make the resulting composition look good with rhythm and color harmony.
- 21 palettes,
- 2 background modes : lights on / lights off,
- 3 grid types,
- plus some surprise features…
I encourage you to try and see the variations before minting :) 2 of the grid types are based on https://gorillasun.de/blog/an-algorithm-for-irregular-grids by Ahmad Moussa ( https://twitter.com/gorillasu ) and used with his knowledge and kind permission.
gradient formulas are based on https://twitter.com/takawo/status/1505876107492720651?s=20&t=S9aU_oNYyjBieBcEmvUV-g by Takawo Shunsuke ( https://twitter.com/takawo ) and used with his knowledge and kind permission.
Thank you all in advance and have a good day!
DISCLAIMER : I am not a good coder, I have tried to fix my past mistakes from my earlier projects to make some room for new mistakes :) I am hoping that there isn’t any huge bugs or anything left so you can enjoy your mint! Please hit me up if you have any concerns after minting and we can discuss a solution.
