barcodes #3

This token was created for THE PASSAGE: Pitch Drop experience, an interactive minting experience where your choices determine the design of your token.

To take part, please purchase an Edition 5 Coin on fx(hash) by HERE & NOW. The artwork and experience draw inspiration from the 'The Pitch Drop Experiment': the world's longest-running laboratory experiment. Since 1927, only nine drops of pitch have fallen, and it has never been witnessed live.

The title of my collection is “barcodes”, as unique visual identifiers for their respective generative token.

Barcodes initially displayed data by varying width, spacing, and size of the lines. Today, we can additionally separate barcodes by color and hidden layers.

In our realm of little dots and noise, we can distinguish data (token holder, contract address, purchase history) using these features, but we can add one more:

The time it takes for the “pitch to drop”. The pace of the barcode’s formation.
