Glitch Candies is a genesis project launched on Stargaze Launchpad. It is the first hand made generative collection of evolving sculptures created using sound synthesis and GLSL shaders minted on Cosmos ecosystem.
Noise shapes the colour, texture and sound. Each candy is unique and has utility beyond 4k resolution print-ready artwork and HD video.
Glitch Candies collections embrace the intricacies of code, error and seeks beauty in human interaction with blockchain technology.
Glitch Candies are based on simple geometric shapes that are being modified by noise and sound synthesis. They inform aesthetic choises of audio used.
Each piece can be recalled in custom made software via JSON file consisting its traits. This way each Genesis artwork will have its audiovisual sculpture companion of the same rarity and traits.
Eye candy colors are used in these works to accent beauty in noisy and glitchy forms or art.
Depth, colour and texture of Glitch Candies are affected by especially made GLSL shaders. These short pieces of code are inspired by FedFod`s work in this area.
Glitch Candies Genesis collection is a collection of images, however holder of each one of them will receive an airdrop of handmade generative audiovisual sculpture.
Audio created in these works was generated using hardware machines and modular synthesisers controlled by voltage. This approach provides flexibility and high quality of sound. Creation of hardware physical setups provide unique sound design and evolving compositions that were specifically designed for this project.
Glitch Candies are about abstract generative art and having fun with tech and blockchain. We love experimenting with art and technology. We are engaging users and are excited about metaverse and what it has to offer. We are exploring Decentraland, creating events, audiovisual experiences and mini games.
Glitch Candies collections explore glitch, eye candy colours and human / computer and blockchain interaction in various forms. Audio, visual, metadata, airdrops, traits all these media are glitched out or randomised in some form.
Glitch Candies AV and Gen2 are all hand sculpted and rendered real-time like mini VJ sets. Both collections contain audio traits specifically composed for user interaction, go match them, play with them on marketplace or in your wallet. Some match, some create generative ambient pieces some glitch out.
Our long term vision is to establish ourselves as NFT Studio and help new and existing projects to engage with users and integrate blockchain, web3 and metaverse strategies.
Glitch Candies are created with experimentation in mind. Gasless and inexpensive transactions on Stargaze chain allow flexibility. The aim of the project is to:
Here is video showcasing sculpting and variety of shapes that can be made in the process.
First few rendered Candies. Audiovisual by design.
Here is how sound design process looks and sounds like.
Complex Glitch Candies, based on generative 3D models, feedback patches and advanced shaders. Ultra limited series with additional perks and also License: CC0.
Raw images coming straight from the graphic card are in print-ready 4k resolution. Holders of Genesis Collection will be considered OG supporters of the project.
Audiovisual collection of evolving sculptures rendered real-time. Embracing the intricacies of code, glitch and error it is seeking beauty in human interaction with technology. LIC: CC0.
Limited edition wearable and 3D modelled Glitch Candy airdrops as well as entrance to limited access areas in metaverse experiences.
Genesis holders received Audiovisual Glitch Candy as an airdrop once collection is launched, as well as voting rights to influence the future of the project. Hodlers receive all perks from GC AV collection.
AV Candies were distributed randomly. Collect sets of all audio traits or Genesis Candy / AV Candy sets for future airdrops. Hodl for future rewards and metaverse experiences.
