Terraforms by @mathcastles has been one of the most inspiring pieces of art for me. I wrote a long-form essay discussing both the technical and artistic vision as well as how it pushes the medium forward. Hope it can inspire others as well!

The Hypercastle Explorer application from @hypercastle_exp allows you to explore the Terraforms by @mathcastles hyperstructure in 3d.
@HEEEEEEEEEEE_ just posted this clip of it running on the Steam Deck by Valve.
Explore the 20 levels of the hypercastle where ever you go 🏯🏰

Super happy to see the @mathcastles team getting the recognition they deserve. By far one of the coolest and more interesting generative land/art projects in the space. Respekt to @0x113d and @xaltgeist for building something magical 🪄✨ Long live the Hyper Cone.

Brand new multi-player / experimental / re-mixable font (re-)living as eternal code on ethereum itself… Coming Soon.

We just put p5.js and three.js onchain, as composable libraries.
I designed a system for deploying and reading very large files to the EVM, which makes them available for anyone to incorporate into their works.

@stargeistt Yes, it works for storing data of any kind. The SSTORE2 piece of this was used by @ETHTerrestrials to store SVGs on chain, for example. The memory manipulation in assembly just allows for much larger files
English
@xaltgeist So, could this approach also be used to store onchain images?
English
Thoughts on this technique for serving large files onchain: The main issue is to avoid gas limitations when concatenating huge strings. My solution is to manually copy chunks of data into memory, and then directly manipulate the memory location that stores the string length

He's too modest so I'll splash: @xaltgeist (who you should follow) coded contracts to do this and get three.js and p5.js onchain a few months back xalt's technique use inline datablobs on EVM (via contract storage + assembly tricks to compose large byte arrays in memory)
English
A preliminary question is how to get these large files into dynamically generated strings (like tokenURI) since ordinary string concatenation is basically off the table. Might require generalizing the manual-memory-manipulation approach for any endpoint incorporating these files
