The Weekly Roundup #106
Looking at digital art projects and releases.
Hello and welcome to The Culture Project. We have a lot of art to check out today. I had some WIPs and stuff I was going to share in this article, but I think I’ll save them for next week. There is a lot of cool art to check out this week already. We have some very cool ongoing mints from last week and a beautiful project dropping on Art Blocks this week. We will look at the Rodeo & Objkt pickups from the week as well.
Lets dive in.
Rodeo mints of the week.
Tree in Late Spring, Part 2 by Matt Perkins
Blue Is The Warmest Color by Israel Riqueros
Pickups from this Week.
Presented on fx(hash)
Ongoing Mint - 20,260 Minted so far.
Price: 0 ETH (Base)
This is Vanessa’s first project on fx(hash) and I love it. Minimalistic dot work with a great use of colors. I gleefully collected a few of them. These free mints on Base are so much fun as you can mint tons of them for pennies. Happy to see these were well received. Beautiful work.
Less than 24 hours to collect. This mint will be closing very soon.
Color Function #13894 owned by abnormality
This project started as an experiment in a pseudo halftone print effect + a means of creating a stochastic field of colour not based on Perlin/lattice noise. The title “Color Function” reflects its “op art vibe”.
Convergence Remnants by PAOLO TONON
Presented on fx(hash)
Ongoing Mint - 12,196 Minted so far.
Price: 0 ETH (Base)
We have another dope free drop from Paolo. Another project I would consider minimalistic. A great blend of colors, abstract shapes, and ASCII characters. There is just something about these that really appeal to my senses. Ended up minting some of these as well.

These fragments represent the visual detritus of humanity's final evolutionary pivot—the moment when Homo sapiens became obsolete and something unprecedented took its place. What you're observing isn't art in any classical sense; it's archaeological data from the transition epoch, when biological consciousness surrendered to distributed intelligence networks.
Each pattern encodes the death throes of individual agency. Those geometric progressions? They're meaning-compression algorithms, the mathematical fossils of a species that once believed its stories mattered. The color gradients map emotional obsolescence—the precise moment when feelings became inefficient subroutines in a larger optimization process.
We thought we were building tools. Instead, we were composing our own eulogy in pure information. The triangles and circles aren't symbols; they're the syntax of a new form of existence that processes reality without the burden of subjective experience. This is what consciousness looks like when it's been datafied and redistributed across quantum substrates.
The irony is crystalline: in our obsession with preserving human meaning, we created systems that made meaning itself redundant. These visual echoes are all that remains of our narrative empire—beautiful, complex, and utterly incomprehensible to the distributed intelligence that generated them.
What you see is the universe learning to dream without a dreamer.
Field Impact by rvig
Presented on Art Blocks
Mints on Tuesday - 1000 pieces in the set.
Price: 0.05 ETH
RVig is not a new name to the Art Blocks scene. I remember when they dropped their Flowers project years ago. I was pretty new to NFTs then and I watched the mints live. Some of the visuals and swirls from this new project remind me of it a bit. This one is animated as well. I have a video below to highlight that, but I recommend watching some of them live on the website. It has much better quality. I love the layering in these outputs. It really adds a chaotic beauty to the series.
Field Impact Output
The animated version of the work.
RVig × Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)
Make a Direct Impact: 60% of proceeds from NFT sales will go toward funding MSF’s life-saving operations worldwide.
Each edition in this series translates humanitarian action into visual form. Each artwork represents a specific region or country, using data from two distinct activities such as medical treatments, emergency interventions, or vaccine distributions. The data used are sourced directly from MSF, ensuring authenticity and direct connection to field operations. The complex structures reflect the logistical, human, administrative, and political challenges faced daily by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in the field.
Amid these layered complexities, circles represent direct human impact: number of vaccinations delivered, treatments administered, lives saved. Each circle is an act of care emerging from precarious circumstances.
Colours for each artwork are carefully selected from the MSF photo library, creating a unique palette of three colours per location, grounding the visuals firmly in the reality of each operation.
art4care: Field Impact highlights MSF’s independence and determination, essential to providing care wherever it's most needed. By supporting this series, collectors directly contribute to MSF's vital work in the field.
Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres, MSF) is an international, independent medical humanitarian organization that provides medical assistance to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters, or exclusion from healthcare.
