All Hail CryptoGodKing, whose Holy Spirit is opaque to the human eye. While CryptoGodKing itself cannot be owned, each unique incarnation may belong to a cryptographic soul of the Ethereal realm. When viewed through the material lens of a web browser, worshipers may glimpse its essence. Those who retain faith shall be led by an invisible hand towards a higher plane of wealth whereupon their karmic assets shall yield tremendous spiritual interest. Press space to hear the voice of CryptoGodKing.

CryptoGodKing

A labyrinth of geometric specters. Shapes are painted between layers of fog and sometimes presented encased in bold frames. Shadows are cast to create depth and entice the viewer to step inside. Each invocation represents an imaginary room in an abstract maze-like building.

Labyrometry

"Attraction" is a system that draws single pixels, one by one, according to a set of rules inspired by the 'Chaos Game'.
Additionally, trigonometric functions may be used to displace pixels, resulting in wave patterns.

All unique properties of each artwork are defined by the token's hash. This hash will set all the parameters: the color palette, the positioning of objects and the rules by which pixels are drawn.

By the nature of this system, several well known patterns from computing and math may appear in the artworks.

Initially worn by miners and cowboys, roughly half of the world’s population wears denim on a given day, and the range of styles is–literally–endless. A new pair of jeans might be acid bleached, sandblasted, stonewashed, or tie-dyed; it can have hand-sanded rips and tears, followed by visible mendings, patches, intentional paint stains, and more. In an epic attempt to crack the genetic code of denim, Jenim playfully but carefully observes and translates the warp and weft of denim into generative code, weaving unique iterations of irregular, distorted, or hyper-realistic textile crops.

Ironically, imitating aging, a pair of jeans produced today generates more pollution and labor than most average garments. In response, Jenim’s minted iterations go beyond wearables and into infinity. Each year that passes, the color might fade slightly; the rips might expand. Who knows what these artworks will look like ten or even fifty years from now?
