A Bugged Forest This long-form generative project on the fx(hash) platform took advantage of a programming bug to embrace the creative outcome one can find by releasing control. The 1000 trees proudly exist each with their unique character and their flaws. The project was released from the deep of the metal festival Hellfest, a hot, earthbound, hostile to some, friendly to others location, which adds a deeper meaning to the idea of embracing the uniqueness of the individuals ( even the freaks), of releasing control through art, or that of collective suffering in the face of climate change.

The Bugged Tree This work was the one that appeared by chance following a bug in a tree algorithm. It is the precursor of the long-form "A Bugged Forest" generative collection, true to the saying "The tree that hides the forest"

Picking up a stunning, black-and-white piece from one of Zancan's classic #fxhash projects for just $450 feels like an absolute steal.

So happy to have added this beauty to my collection ๐Ÿ’Ž โ€” CJ ๐Ÿ”ฎ๐Ÿฆ‰ (@moneybycj) May 19, 2023

I really enjoy pairing artworks, even pieces I don't own

So after seeing @NiwinEth post about picking up a bugged forest by @zancan, that incredible composition motivated me to search for a complimentary piece

My first thought was to go for this AM by @andrea_ciulu owned byโ€ฆ link December 23, 2024
