gollark: So I decided to look at the website on a device which could actually render the sculpture thing, and looking at the FAQ, this seems... odd...:> Each unique seed is stored immutably on the blockchain, and while seeds are case-sensitive, your seed (and therefore, your sculpture) cannot be duplicated by anyone.... *what* does case sensitivity have to do with anything? How can it "not be duplicated"?
gollark: There's this nice one I use for wallpapers: https://github.com/TomSmeets/FractalArt/
gollark: Calling NFTs a form of art themselves, and not the artistic thing they happen to be tied to, seems like calling the fiat currency you might buy artwork with also art.
gollark: Anyway, while it does seem like a cool generative art-type thing (the viewer runs very slowly on my phone so it's hard to tell) I don't think the NFT bit is intrinsic to it at all, or relevant to it except as a somewhat weird way to have it pay for itself.
gollark: 5 million LoC implies you wrote 120000 a day, which seems implausible. And/or would suggest you did waaaaay too much work.
