Winter Flower

❄️ Winter Flowers is an on-chain generative art experiment ❄️
Every snowflake is unique, yet they are each perfect 💎 Get yours, stored forever on the blockchain...

Since mankind became able to zoom enough on snow to see the shape of individual snowflakes, these hexagonal ice crystals never ceased to fascinate us. People like Wilson Bentley, Ukichiro Nakaya and Kenneth Libbrecht among others spent their entire lives photographing it, classifying it or replicating it in laboratory and one saying has emerged from that work : "No two snowflakes are truly alike"

Inspired by real-life snowflakes, Winter Flowers are made of tiny ice drops spreading symetrically around their center using a brownian motion algorithm. Winter Flowers are all fully self-generated and unique, we could literally mint a billion of it without getting 2 identical ones.

Winter Flowers' shapes depend on 2 random parameters which are :

• Ice drops radius : all ice drops constituting a Winter Flower have a specific radius which will influence the compactness of the WF
• Motion Amplitude : when the ice drops are driven by the brownian motion algorithm to their final position, they randomly move up and down with an amplitude defined by this parameter. Motion amplitude influences the general shape of the WF

One algorithm, infinite possibilities ❄️ ∞
