Sir Jack 🪄

We are Xplodies 🤯 We are here to blow brains, not wallets with our unique PFP art. No Roadmap, no Mint price, no Discord, just VIBES. Mint date: 8th May Price: FREE Network: ETH Supply: 2000 Where: @opensea Come and XPLODE with us, more WL GA's to come 👀

Day 3 of playing @OthersideMeta: - Completed daily tasks - Collected 20 badges - Reached level 7 Otherside is a whole different vibe!

Fock it, let’s xplode it on ETH. Coming very soon, like VERY soon. Been cooking this for months and WL will be FREE. For consideration: - Like & RT - follow @XPLODIES69 - drop your wallet Good luck mfers, the collection will blow your mind

Where my ETH communities at? reach out to myself, @B33ofweb3 and @jaspersol1904 if you want spots for your community 😘

Day 2 of playing @OthersideMeta: - Completed daily tasks - Collected 14 badges - Reached level 4 Seems like I’ll be spending more time exploring the Otherside.

Artificial After All | artificial.han.io The Question What happens when a machine learns to see faces, and that learned vision is made permanent? Not as a file to be copied, not as a server to be maintained, but as a living computation on a decentralized machine that no one controls and no one can turn off? The Work Artificial After All is a collection of 256 standalone smart contracts deployed on Ethereum. Each contract contains a compressed neural network, a generative adversarial network trained on 43,000 anime faces, quantized to 15,657 integer parameters, and embedded directly into bytecode. There are no images stored anywhere. No IPFS. No servers. No databases. No oracles. When a contract is called, it runs the full neural network inside Ethereum's virtual machine, dense layers, transposed convolutions, activation functions, normalization, dithering, and produces a unique 32x32 grayscale image from an immutable seed. The artwork is computed, not retrieved. Permanence Every digital artwork faces the same question: what happens when the server goes down? When the startup folds? When the domain expires? When the cloud provider changes its terms? Artificial After All has no dependency on any of these. The neural network lives in bytecode on a blockchain maintained by hundreds of thousands of nodes across the planet. The same seed will produce the same face today, tomorrow, and a thousand years from now, on any machine that speaks the protocol. The art exists as long as Ethereum exists. This is not metaphorical permanence. It is computational permanence, a function that cannot be altered, censored, or deleted by any individual, corporation, or government. Sovereignty In most digital art systems, a piece is a token, an entry in someone else's registry, a row in someone else's database, a pointer to someone else's storage. The artwork exists at the pleasure of the platform. Each Artificial is different. It is not a token in a collection. It is an independent smart contract with its own address, its own bytecode, its own neural network, and its own behavior. It does not reference a parent. It does not depend on a platform. It is a sovereign object on the world computer. Ownership is not managed by a marketplace. Each contract carries its own built-in economy, owners can list, price, sell, transfer, and withdraw, all encoded in the contract itself. No intermediaries. No platform fees. No permission required. The market is as permanent as the art. The World Machine That Learned to See The neural network at the heart of each piece was trained through a specific process: a generative adversarial network learning from 43,000 anime faces, then quantized from floating-point to 8-bit integers through quantization-aware training, then compressed via Huffman encoding, then exported as Solidity bytecode. This is not an AI generating art on demand. This is a frozen moment of machine perception, a neural network that learned to see faces, then was crystallized into immutable code. Each piece is a window into what the machine learned, selected by the deterministic seed baked into its contract at the moment of creation. The faces are not designed. They are not curated. They are not chosen. They emerge from learned representations in a 32-dimensional latent space, shaped by the training data and the mathematics of the network. They are artificial, after all. The Parent It begins with a single parent contract, a factory that anyone can call to create their own Artificial. Each creation deploys a new smart contract onto Ethereum. The factory enforces scarcity: exactly 256 pieces can ever exist. The first 64 are reserved for the artist. The remaining 192 are publicly mintable at a fixed price. Once 256 contracts are deployed, the factory is complete, it will reject every future call, forever. The number 256 is not arbitrary. It is 2^8, the number of values a single byte can hold, the fundamental unit of digital information. A 32x32 image of 256 pixels per row. 256 pieces in the collection. The constraints are computational, not aesthetic. The Name "Artificial After All" is a statement about the nature of the work. These faces are not real. The intelligence that generated them is not conscious. The permanence of the blockchain is maintained by machines, not by memory. Everything about this project, the artist's tool, the artwork's medium, the collector's marketplace, the network's permanence, is artificial. And yet it produces something that feels strangely human: faces that gaze back at you from 1,024 pixels of grayscale, computed by mathematics that learned what a face looks like by studying thousands of them. They are artificial, after all.
