A few things I like about this work:<p>- With generative art there's usually a tension between variety and beauty, but Fidenza achieves an extraordinarily high level of both.<p>- I like the Artblocks model in general. Pieces are minted on-chain. It means the artist can't curate the output, so the algorithm itself is the art. Artists have been making generative art for decades, but it feels like this is the way it was always meant to be done.<p>- Artists can make certain outcomes of their generative algorithms more rare than others. The decision of what should be common or rare can be made for commercial reasons (kind of like hologram trading cards), or artistic reasons. After studying all the ways Fidenza runs, it seems like Tyler Hobbs has hewed really closely to the artistic ideal.
