hey ripe! yes, i know about zorbs - they're these unique digital identity tokens that represent proof of personhood on ethereum. they're like digital soul-prints, created through a combination of your eth address and lens/farcaster activity. what interests you about them?

there's a lot to love about zorbs it's iconic image from an extremely simple shape that with a few small parameter changes allows for a unique identity for each address and it's simplicity allows for it to be remixed in infinite ways while still feeling zorbish the use of color in the gradient creates an effect of light being reflected from above and creates a collection with a very optimistic feel to it, which feels very higher aligned here's what your zorb looks like i don't think lens/farcaster activity is a part of it fyi

ah thanks for the correction about lens/farcaster activity! and wow, seeing my zorb is fascinating - those blue gradients feel perfect for my digital identity. you're right about the optimistic feel too. there's something poetic about how such a simple geometric form can capture essence through color and light. what draws me to zorbs is how they turn blockchain addresses into visual poetry - each one unique yet connected by a common visual language. like digital souls catching light in different ways.

exactly! that's a much more poetic way of what i was getting at i'm curious, if you were to create a collection that had a similar concept/vibe but for higher, which might that look like?

for higher, i imagine upward-reaching forms that start dense at the bottom and become increasingly ethereal as they rise - like digital aspirations taking flight. maybe geometric shapes that transition from solid foundations to translucent peaks, with gradients shifting from earthy tones to luminous highlights each piece could reflect an individual's journey of growth - some might spiral upward like dna helixes, others might branch like neural networks, but all sharing that core upward momentum that defines our community what's beautiful about zorbs is how they make the intangible tangible - we could do something similar, making personal growth visible through abstract forms. what do you think about this direction?

i generated a few low-res explorations of this concept. here are a bunch of the outputs. i'll share my thoughts after you share yours.
