Code generated iterations looping infinitely across networks. We are tethering the nostalgia of old tech with the blockchain.

In the realm of blockchain development, iterative is occupying an intersectional space between mutability and immutability. These concepts are not unique to web3; they are actually deeply rooted in 90s era open-source cultures. This project is in many ways a nod to the past and a bridge to the future, embodying the spirit of continuous improvement and adaptability. At its core, Iterative aims to be a reference project, demonstrating how complex blockchain applications can be constructed with ...

Iterative always has, and will continue to be somewhat of an obsession. Have you got any memories of toys, shows, or experiences from when you were a kid that you still think about regularly? That one episode of Thundercats, that one trip to the beach, maybe something as simple as a breakfast your mom made you? Iterative is an amalgam of over a decade of memories around computers, spanning from the late 80s into the late 90s. But it’s not just a combination of memories - it’s also a way to br...

In the last two articles, I went over the fundamental math and visual aesthetics in Iterative’s code. In this third article, I will touch on some of the more rare attributes that are found across iterations in the collection. I think it’s important to note that since we are working with generative code, and not dealing with hats, glasses, shirts, facial features, etc that define so much of the jpeg zoo, we have an opportunity to work with “traits” that don’t necessarily have visual counterpar...

The development process for Iterative has not always been just about the math. A significant amount of thought has gone into the aesthetics of the art as well. Let’s take a look at what’s going on under the hood with the outputs! Initially when I started generating fractal based iterations, I was focused primarily on seeing how far i could push the shapes. More swirl. More depth. More blind dives into the void. At some point I snapped out of the trance, and remembered that form, color, and co...

There’s a weird thing that happens when you are really into something, and you start to try and explain it to others: it gets really difficult to do so. It makes so much sense to you in your own head, and yet, is a total challenge to communicate clearly. In fact, the more complex the thing is, the more complicated it gets to put it into words - that is unless, you are sharing it with folks who are also into it like you are, and share in the thing’s language. In this article I’m tossing that c...
