As applied to the live music experience, to mosh is to be up front and close to the action. When you are shoulder-to-shoulder with your fellow enthusiasts, feeding your energy back to the musicians and facilitators who are crafting the communal experience. To be "caught in a mosh" is to be so deep in it that you have given up some of that feeling of control, which can be both scary and exciting. My handle Cardanomosh reflects my desire to experience as many different aspects of the Cardano blockchain as I can while feeding back my energy to the creators and operators who are making it all possible. There is no scene unless you show up for the scene.

Collecting art, music, and the printed word combines private world-building with financial and social validation of the creators behind the collected works. Collecting also honors the hard work and financial risk of the publishers and distributors who curate and make creative works available. The world-spanning openness of the Cardano blockchain transforms, amplifies, and extends the creation, distribution, and consumption experience for everyone. My collection is not just a bunch of stuff in my house anymore. On the blockchain, and on Kreate, everyone can see and enjoy the world I am building.

I don't consider myself an artist, in the true sense, but I enjoy the ways that technology makes it possible to transmit ideas into new forms that can be shared and leave their mark on the world. I am interested in the ways generative AI prompt engineering can induce novel, unexpected results. I enjoy the invocation of sensical hallucinations from the AI at the intersection of intention and accident, often with an element of the absurd. I am interested in the idea that the AI will keep evolving in terms of both the deep learning models and the training corpus. I see artistic value in capturing moments in that evolution where the AI generates outputs that, if preserved, may with the passage of time become recognizable epochal variations. 

And it's fun. That's the main thing. Enjoy it for what it is.

Raw generative AI for Inktober 2024. Day thirty-one: prompt word 'landmark'. Stream of consciousness automatic prompt writing. Is it art? We'll see.

Is Inktober compatible with raw generative AI art? Let's find out. I'm following the daily prompt words from the 2024 list, leading into automatic stream of consciousness word choice for my prompts.

Inktober 2024 (AI Style)

Landmark

Standalone generative AI artworks that are not part of a conceptual collection. I seek to coax the AI into doing something it doesn't know it wants to do. The Cardano blockchain is the ideal place to preserve these moments of machine inspiration. The owner of each 1/1 NFT has full exclusive rights to the image, forever.

Singular AI Artworks

A collection of 24 blacklight posters, in the classic psychedelic style, that may be too frightening to hang on your bedroom wall.

Blacklight Terrors

A collection of 34 NFTs, being an exploration of the absurd, as the fierce and gentle nobility of the cheetah manifests through the history of art and culture.
