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"

I, uh, also picked up a few of Zancan’s work on #fxhash and #objkt today—including this wonderfully bugged forest. I think I may be addicted to their work. The intricacy! And the philosophy, mind and heart behind it = !💚 November 28, 2022

#347 is pretty special to me.
First of all, there are approximately eight of these in the entire «Bugged Forest» by @zancan

This thread is my opinion, and as far as I know, opinion is an idea that deforms itself into thinking it's a fact.
Which is also a bug. June 21, 2022
