I'm thrilled to announce "Metta", launching as the first project on the groundbreaking platform @intrinsicdotart ! (minting 4/30/24) In Metta and on intrinsic, the traits are the ideas that empower the art, and it's the collectors who make each piece and can control the traits...

Metta is an exploration of the interconnected world. The patterns created reflect lifeβs intricate web, showing how individual entities form a cohesive whole. The animation brings these connections to life, illustrating the dynamic nature of relationships. a couple testnet frames:

Metta will mint 256 ERC-721 tokens on @base network, but there's a ton more to it! Before I get into that, here's some links: My site and writeup - https://matto.xyz/project/metta/ Metta on intrinsic - https://intrinsic.art/project/1 Essay on malleable genart - https://paragraph.xyz/@matto/malleable-generative-art

It's hard to explain just how different this project and http://intrinsic.art really are... For starters, when you mint, you don't get a completely random token, you select the traits (from those still available...) and generate a hash to see the result before minting.

Traits are not infinite: every mint uses traits and pulls them from the available pool, allowing rarity to exist within the project. While this sort of parameter selection has been done before, http://intrinsic.art adds a mechanic that is completely novel - and exciting!

At any time, a Metta owner can 'reclaim' the traits from their token. This effectively burns the artwork and mints the owner tokens representing the ideas that powered the art - the traits. The most exciting part: these traits can be traded, remixed, and minted into new Metta!

This means that every collector, at mint and after, can truly 'own' the artwork. They can unmake and remake it, change it, sell it or the traits, at will. This is so exciting to me because it unlocks new avenues for both Collector <-> Art & Artist <-> Collector interactions!
