Hello and welcome to The Culture Project. I’ve been sick this last week and absent from socials for the most part again. I’m kind of lurking more than posting recently. I’ve been working on a few projects away from digital art in my spare time. I finally have the time to focus on the manifold contract and publish the first of our Brush Strokes V0 pieces. There is a wonderful range of abstract art coming out this week to check out. One project I’ve been really looking forward to is finally releasing, Conversations by pxlshrd. It was going to release last month, but got pushed back till now.
Lets dive in.
This will be the first piece minted to the manifold contract for Brush Strokes V0.
Brush Strokes V0 #00 - Going to the Culture Project wallet.
Presented on Highlight
Ongoing Mint - 1533 pieces minted in the set.
Price: 0.0008 ETH Mint Fee (50% to creator)
I love the shifting perspectives from piece to piece in this series. I ended up minting a few because of how much I liked them.
One of my mints.
Mazemania are algorithmically generated maze-like patterns, presented as immersive isometric landscapes.
Additional visual elements have been incorporated to create surreal effects, including impossible geometries and an illusion of three-dimensional depth.
A very personal approach to Optical Art through a long-form generative collection.

Mints on Monday - 128 pieces in the set.
Price: 0.5 Tezos
Some more great work from Kusamehewa. I’ve really enjoyed these last few projects they released. They are interactive and can change a bit as you mess with them, but I really enjoyed the outputs how they came out. A really beautiful range of colors and patterns.
Amara began as a way of playing with gradient colour palettes.
There are a lot of key inputs that will impact on the design.

Mints on Wednesday - 2 sets of 100 pieces.
Price: 0.002 ETH (Base) // 5 Tezos
A set of projects that are on ETH and Tezos. Something we’ve seen other artists do. The algos seem to be a little different from each other from the outputs I got. One seeming more tamed and the other a little more wild. Both showing some amazing outputs.
Subaqua is inspired by organic growth patterns found in nature, such as cells and coral structures. By mimicking some of the rules of nature—repetition, variation, and randomness—it attempts to evoke life and transformation. Each 'cell' follows its own unique path, influenced by slight changes in speed, size, and rotation, creating a dynamic, evolving visual. The color palette is procedurally generated, producing harmonious, shifting hues. Each iteration feels both familiar and entirely unique, much like the natural processes that inspired it.

Mints on Wednesday - 50 pieces in the set.
Price: Ranked auction with rebate. Pay lowest winning bid.
The description below for this project is just a small snippet from it. I really recommended reading all of it and watching the video they created for the project. This looks like a deeply personal release and I love how it has all come together. Some of the outputs I’ve saved so far are so damn good. I already have one picked out if I happen to get to mint one.
This video was really well done. A preview into an abstract mind.
The forest has become my safe haven. While walking in the woods, this repetitive, mechanical action cleanses my mind and creates more lucid thoughts than musing at my desk. It’s the meditative quality of these walks, that has translated itself into an extension of my workspace, in which ideas come together and blockages dissipate. In this motion, my projects take form—to the point where wandering has become a precondition for doing work. I enjoy mixing the sounds of the forest with ambient music on my earbuds. Preferably without field recordings to avoid artifice and overlap. Sometimes a tune captures a moment perfectly and the universe seems to align; it raises the experience to create this weird state of overwhelmed consciousness as if opening a window to a higher, dream-like plane of existence.
