Ladies and gentlemen, imagine a world where NFT artistry and creative coding merge, ushering in a revolutionary era of interactive masterpieces unlike anything you've ever seen before, or will ever witness again. Enter "Dream Engine," a pioneering creation within the Web3 landscape that transcends belief and beckons you to explore the unknown.
In the ethereal realm of Dream Engine, you're invited to peer into the inner musings of the blockchain as it envisions the unfathomable. It's like gazing into a mirror that reflects our digital souls. As you contribute your essence through simple interactive play, you'll witness your unique self transmuted into a symphony of sound and a solor system of color, light and numbers, constantly connecting within the intricate web of the blockchain. For the first time ever, it's a journey into your very identity, dormant DNA brought to life to reveal who you truly are.
Dream Engine is a mesmerizing blend of auditory and visual abstraction, serenading you with tranquil frequencies tailored to your individual spirit. It responds to your simple interactions, producing psychoacoustic music that unveils your essence through a cosmic mirror. Each creation is an exclusive ode to you, marked by its distinct, intrinsic hashtag, until you begin to interact and create your own words, your name, it then reflects you in sound and vision. That goes for any word you speak or type in it. See and hear what your kids sound and look like, your family, its Endless and SAFE locked on the blockchain. It is a first profound connection that we created to the elusive blockchain.
But this is no ordinary art "on the chain." Dream Engine is "chain native," deeply interwoven into the blockchain's fabric, capable of weaving a unique audio-visual tapestry that can never be replicated. The code breathes life into an ever-evolving symphony of colors and forms, reflecting each of you equally, yet uniquely, with the healing power to calm your souls, and of course all anonymous.
Drawing inspiration from graph theory, creative coding, mathematics, Einstein's relativity, Leonardos cryptic mathematical computer cyphers, and the music of orchestras going back centuries when they were allowed to play every hertz to evoke feeling in their compositions and audiences. This was broken down in the 1920s when 4/4 songs became the standard and the law as 44 Hertz which was the magic number for listeners to buy music. It was propaganda to sell records.
However, Dream Engine transports you to the past and future simultaneously. This is how music has alway been meant to be heard. with no bounds on Hertz, making it healing, soothing, creative and meditative.
Dream Engine works by charting a course across neighboring nodes, crafting constant evolving soundscapes, each note originating from the very letters of its cryptographic code, which existed from the Renaissance. These tones are not merely audible; they paint a vivid and unparalleled picture with unique and healing hues and harmonies which massage the essence of our psyche.
Dream Engine resonates with hypnotic, therapeutic melodies that flow in waves, eliciting crests and lulls within your sphere of creation, meditation, and dreams. Each Dream Engine is a product of its immutable hash, yet you possess the power to metamorphose it into a vessel of artistic expression, allowing you to orchestrate your own narrative and essence between 88 hertz and 880hertz, which is used to sooth people.
You can play it like an instrument or experience it in a massive exhibition on giant screens or listen on your headphones.
Click 'play' to immerse yourself into its magical music and visuals or play a thousand of them at once to create an ever-changing orchestra, always healing, always calming, always in sync with you, your neighbors any accompanying Dream Engines. They will never go out of sync or harmony no matter if you played all 2048 of them at once in one room. Id like to see that - wouldn’t you?
And of course, you can simply use it to listen to the blockchain while watching it dream. This was its original start point, but it grew into a profound machine.
But we must ask ourselves, as Philip K. Dick did, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" By interactively unleashing your inner selves into Dream Engine, you will transcend to birth your own Electric Sheep, known as "The Dream Composition." In synergy with its sibling, my first Artblocks project, Talking Blocks, an enchanting audio-visual feedback loop that listens to its environment, forms, fusing Dream Engine with the blockchain's endless possibilities, Talking Blocks and you at the center. It’s truly profound.
Dream Engine inhabits a 4th dimension that was previously hidden from view, a space that raises the question: Are there ghosts in the machine? The answer lies within your hands.
To embark on this surreal journey go and play with Dream Engine.

A symphony of nothing but squares and triangles to create something beautiful.
This is a project I made when I was just getting started with generative art.
I decided to revive it despite all its flaws to preserve this piece of my humble history.
FOCUS is the second project in my ‘Zenerative’ series of Zen-inspired generative art, following [Ensō](https://www.artblocks.io/project/34).
The algorithm can produce interactive pieces that are elegantly minimal as well as artworks featuring complex patterns that explore visual illusions and artificial space. FOCUS outputs span three responsive aspect ratios, each of which have three possibilities for the central shape - or focus. Drawing inspiration from the Zen art tradition of doing more with less, the limited palette consists of black, white, and five colors. This palette both constrains possible outcomes and allows the creation of unique perceptual interactions. Except in extremely rare scenarios, each piece can provide a wide variety of visual experiences through its interactive features: use up and down arrows to adjust the pattern recursion factor, left and right arrows to adjust the midpoint count, ‘h’ to hide or show the central shape, and ‘s’ to save.
As a gift to my collectors, FOCUS has a free-to-claim, 100% on-chain, generative SVG companion project called [deFOCUSed](https://matto.xyz/project/defocused/). (Thank you!)

Eight a symbol of luck, fate, a cosmic slot machine. The I Ching gives a glimpse of the future & some traits allow you to draw your own art. Luck of the mint, art of the flip to explain the randomness of one’s unique traits. The fruit of the slots to the binary I Ching of 8 sides & planetary gender. These traits are in the art & in us. They might seem imperfect but their unique lucky combination give each a power no one else has.
**At least 12% of the profit is donated to CasaBrumar Foundation & Safe Space and other LGBTQ+ charities**

The limited palette consists of black, white, and five colors; this both constrains possible outcomes and allows the creation of unique perceptual interactions. Inspired by the Zen art tradition of doing more with less, FOCUS does not utilize any pseudo-random number generation, and each output can be recreated by hand using simple math, estimation, and dedication.

FOCUS is best viewed live and full screen.
*Interactive features: use up or down arrows to adjust the background pattern's recursion, and left or right arrows to adjust the number of midpoints along the sides of the background pattern. Use ‘h’ to hide or show the central shape, and ‘s’ to save an image. To use the token's hash to 'autoplay' the token, use Matto's [FOCUS animator](https://matto.xyz/tools/focus-animator/index.html).

Six works from the _Placement_ series were on exhibition at the Art Blocks Gallery in Marfa, Texas from May – October, 2022.
_Placement_ is a series of 500 artworks that are iteratively generated by an algorithm built by the artist. These hard-edge color-fields are visual representations of the underlying code; their color juxtapositions provoke a long look that goes beyond ‘seeing’. The frame assists in this process as it emphasizes concentration akin to the design of a digital display. The mechanisms of production – code and silkscreen – fade away to present artworks of pure color projected onto a screen or laid on top of paper. In this way, the artist relates the allure of vivid, saturated ink to the mesmerizing glow of a digital display. Cooper is engaged with themes such as digital materiality and the phenomenological.
The Wrapture is a generative edition with unique properties. Technically it is capped at 666 editions, however holders of The Eternal Pump have the opportunity to limit the edition to 50 algorithmic editions if they can cooperate.
The rules are fairly simple: as long as no one trades, sells, or lists their edition for sale in the next year, no additional editions will be made available for minting. However, if one collector breaks the rules, the remainder of the 666 editions will be opened up to the public for minting. If no one breaks the rules for one year, the edition will be capped and collectors will be free to “move” the art with no repercussions.
Collectors will be faced with an interesting dilemma - should be fun to watch.

_Somewhere in a galaxy far away, a multidimensional being is looking at this clock and thinking about the impermanence of existence and the infinity of the universe. This art is endless and deterministic._
**Use full screen for total immersion.**
Controls:
- Click/tap or use keys 1 to 9 to switch speed.
- s = toggle starts.
- t = toggle hyperspace.
- Space = pause.
This project symbolizes generative artists united by the common idea of Art Blocks. Each panel on the block is a small generative art piece with several random parameters that live their own life while simultaneously being part of the composition.
Each art contains one letter of the words ART BLOCKS. A collector who possesses all nine letters becomes a member of the TBOA club.
**Attention! Extremely Experimental Project!**
This project is the quintessential generative art. Each instance of this project is an infinite deterministic ratio and resolution agnostic art generator. _Every click = new art_. The main format is a 3x4 poster. But by pressing "f," you can stretch the art to the whole screen (any screen). All elements of this art are rectangles, and the main number of this project is 4. You can use the generated images commercially (read the license).
**Controls:**
- "f" = fullscreen
- "s" = save art
- "t" = 30-sec interval infinite slideshow
- "u" = 3-sec interval slideshow + save (а convenient way to make images for the gallery)
- "1 - 9" = change pixel density. (Changing the ratio and pixel density resets the art counter to 0).
Ieva [iɛvʌ] is an algorithm that creates a shape in a specific sequence from a random point on the grid and smooths out its corners. Overlapping such shapes creates endless possibilities of combinations that will always remain balanced and aesthetically pleasing.
The title of this project is the name of the investigator who made a criminal case against me for making art. This name occupied a big part of my mind while working on this project. And I decided that it should be perpetuated in art.
You can do the "investigation" for Ieva (because she doesn't want to do it). To do so, you have to click on the art.
**Controls:**
- "click" = investigate
- "space" = automatic investigation
