There are 3 different shapes drawn: Every like, reply, recast you’ve received is represented by a heart. Every follower is an avatar. Every cast / reply you’ve sent is an arc. Additionally, your fid determines what color palettes you are eligible for. FIDs <= 1000 and <= 10000 are eligible for unique color palettes

Each shape drawn is a one-to-one relationship to your social activity. However, note that the shapes are drawn on a larger canvas than what the final art piece displays. So this means that while every bit of your social activity was drawn, it may not show on the art piece depending on the placement.

Because of the relationship between your social activity and generated piece, there will be a wide variety of potential outcomes. Someone with very little social activity will have a minimalistic piece with a few shapes on the canvas - as opposed to someone with a lot of activity will have a full canvas.

The size of the shapes also varies based on the total number of a given activity you’ve completed. It is an inverse relationship - meaning the more of a certain activity you have, the smaller the shapes will be.

I started off this project focusing on the data initially, and built the systems to aggregate an individual’s social data. I went through a lot of iterations on what I could do with it, and played around with a few different algorithms but wasn’t happy with any of them until the end result you see now.

Once you interact with the frame, all your Farcaster social activity is pulled, parsed, and stored. Once done, a separate function is called to generate your art piece, while giving you the option to reroll if you aren’t happy with it. Once minted; however, you can’t reroll anymore so choose wisely!

Hope you enjoyed this look into the project, and the end result! Please take a look and mint if you like the pieces :) - thanks for reading!

My social graph yesterday vs today 😅 - thanks for all the love and kind words 🙏

For those who DM’d me, I’ll get through them asap. There still a bit of mints pending/got dropped for reasons I’m not sure atm. But I have all the data and will mint them to you soon! https://opensea.io/collection/socialgraphs
