Drag to comb the ink. Click to drop a new bead.

A grid of thirty-six pieces from the collection, each with its own palette and composition

Thirty-six of the 1,111. No two repeat. The palette, the current and the rhythm of the drops all come from the token's hash.

Ink on water that never settles

Suminagashi is a Japanese marbling craft. You let ink fall onto still water, then comb the surface until the veins tangle. No two sheets come out alike, because the water never does the same thing twice.

This collection moves it onto a 256 by 256 grid. It isn't a picture of the process. It is the process: a flow field carries the ink, each new drop pushes the older ones outward, and whatever crosses the edge is gone. There is no final frame.

It lives entirely on chain

No server, no CDN, no image hosted anywhere. The program that draws your piece is written into Base and runs in your browser when you open it. If every website in the world went dark tomorrow, your piece would still work.

The same token, the same artwork

Every piece is derived from its token's hash, so two people opening the same token see exactly the same pixels. Checked against all three JavaScript engines there are: Chrome's, Safari's and Firefox's.
