Chaos Roads is a fully onchain, EVM-generated, runtime crypto-art collection.

Chainleft is an integral contributor to the on-chain community who provides so much knowledge and value to the space. He just released a project, [Chaos Roads](https://opensea.io/collection/chaos-roads), that is pushing the boundaries in many ways (including a fully on-chain minting website, what?!). It is our very honor to interview him and learn more about his background.

### Hey Chainleft! Can you give a brief introduction of yourself?

Hi, I’m [Chainleft](https://twitter.com/ChainLeftist). I’m a West Asian immigrant. I finally settled in Central Europe after living in six different countries and started a family here. In the crypto space, I’m mostly focused on art and historical NFTs. I’m also openly leftist, I aim to contribute to bridging the gaps between leftist ideals and the trustless automation of the smart contract systems.

### Could you tell us a bit about your background and how you got into art and coding?

My background is in data science; I’ve previously focused on machine learning in the fintech space, but recently I’m more on the e-commerce side. Having coded numerous data visualizations in the past, creative programming was a smooth transition. I previously did street art and photography as a hobby but never professionally. Today I’d probably call myself a blockchain native artist focusing on glitch art, on-chain art and conceptual art.

I like going beyond using blockchain only as a medium for transacting art and use it as the canvas itself. In this moment of art history, blockchain allows a vast number of new concepts to be realized. Tokenization, programmability, and crypto-social relationships open up unique possibilities where we can create art that is uniquely possible only with blockchain. These possibilities endlessly fascinate me.

### How did you find your way into Web3?

I’ve heard about Bitcoin long before, but I only got actually interested in blockchains when I heard about smart contracts. The trustless use cases smart contracts unlock fit my personality and my political alignment much better. At first it was simply thinking about what DAOs can do. Then it was researching altcoins and trying to understand their use cases. Most of these turned out to be scams, but I truly believe those use cases will be achieved some day by genuine builders.

### Do you remember the first time you heard about NFTs?

I’ve heard about NFTs back in 2017 during CryptoKitties mint, but I truly “got” NFTs only in 2021. I believe it was either int.art or Art Blocks that really made me feel like “OK this is the same feeling I have when I hang an artwork on my wall in real life. It’s the same feeling, projected in the digital realm."

### What sparked your interest in historical NFTs?

It was probably immediately after getting into NFTs. In the peak mania of 2021, there were so many mints happening per day that it was very clear it couldn’t have been sustainable. I have tweets from September 2021 calling 99.9% of pfp projects scams. There was a need to find scarcity within NFTs, and historical NFTs with immutable timestamps were the inevitable answer.

### Could you briefly explain the concept behind your project Chaos Roads?

![chaosroads](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/5FVsSiFQ47gMT1Gj8Wd1m4/560783d1351521c4947d759b710db187/chaosroads.png)

Chaos Roads is a very rich collection in its concept explorations. My ultimate goal before I even thought about the collection has been to showcase that the blockchain medium we have here is a canvas and we can use it to conceptualize new art forms. This is why I built three art pieces into each token: A visual painting, a musical piece and a poem. All of these artforms would be generated, and then distorted (both literally and conceptually) by the Ethereum Virtual Machine itself, fully within the chain. This is called “runtime art” where the “always-on” Ethereum computer is used to create an always-living art that keeps changing dynamically.

So what concepts could be explored using this runtime medium? EVM gives us an always-on computer, but it also gives us control. So the idea behind Chaos Roads is to explore this relationship between disorder and order. The smart contract is set up to ensure that the pieces distort visually, musically and literally; but it also gives collectors a chance to “control” that chaos.

### Chaos Roads was also the first time an NFT mint site was fully onchain. How did this come to be?

![on-chain-site](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/4zcwUbbKYJovv1MgTDZ0qo/3bdc408904fd2800e28267223b3eca3a/on-chain-site.png)
*Fully onchain mint site*

There are a few discord servers where the next evolution of onchain methods is being discussed. One of them is of course our Pushers server, but at a larger scale, I would consider Mathcastles (a pioneering art studio that released Terraforms) and Linagee Name Registrar (the oldest NFT smart contract on Ethereum) servers to be places to be for anyone interested in the technicals of this topic. My journey in this rabbit hole started in these two servers.

Mason Keresty, the developer who rediscovered the LNR contract, is a friend. We have chatted a lot before and he mentioned the etherweb protocol they were building in LNR. The protocol at that point was designed to use calldata to store the sites onchain at that point. We talked about the more recent onchain standards and how fully onchain storage at the state level would be a more permanent solution.

In the meantime, other developers built interesting experiments on Arbitrum or on Goerli, and a read-only onchain site was published on the mainnet.

So we decided to do Chaos Roads mint fully onchain. The most challenging part was the allowlist access. This requires access to merkle tree proofs which are normally stored on the website frontend. They’re actually useless after the mint.

0xDerpNation coded a mini version of ethers.js package (an incredibly difficult task) and Mason stored the merkle tree proofs within calldata (this was OK since allowlists are temporary requirements anyway). I added the merkle tree proof transaction link within my mint contract so that allowlist verification can happen fully onchain. Mason then built the minimized website and stored it in ethFS that Frolic had built (another Mathcastles discord alumni). We accessed it through .og protocol and here we are!

We have done dozens of tests and were testing until the very last minute :)

![discord](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/1LMKPDF5Iinul8HpDFhjbl/722b8af997b9bdabcf20ecab37c981a6/discord.png)
*The eureka moment*

### When creating art what are your biggest influences or sources of inspiration?

For me, art is more than a beautiful aesthetic. I’m deeply interested in medium-native art, where the new medium can cause new concepts to arise. And that’s not just limited to NFTs.

When I was living in London, I was fascinated by street art. Not just the aesthetics of it, but also the culture of it. Using a medium outside its original purpose, playing with the concept of permanent buildings and transitory state of public paintings, and of course the rebellion against the constantly surveilling CCTV cameras. To me, this new art style allowed new thoughts and emotions to be expressed. I remember searching for every new Otto Schade, Cranio, Banksy piece in the streets.

When I look at NFT space, artists that use the medium to communicate new thoughts and emotions inspire me the most. I’ll definitely forget some but some are: Rhea Myers, Mitchell Chan, Sterling Crispin, Simon de la Rouviere, Nili Werner, thedude, Crash Blossom, 0x113, remnynt... Aesthetically I’m a big fan of glitch art. Obviously XCOPY, but also JAK, Manic, Hafftka. Too many to count to be honest!

### Why did you choose to make your art fully on-chain?

I recently wrote [an article about this](https://mirror.xyz/chainleft.eth/CzPqeZliHEZ2WFcyDiMJtWuwQTJDKZUNEw5YCJ-AweE)! For me, beyond the obvious practical persistence advantages of onchain storage, fully onchain art is also conceptually very interesting. I listed four reasons in my article:

A) In the transitory world of NFTs, knowing something will be permanent is very interesting. It’s almost a critique towards ever-changing narratives.

![Genesisleft](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/6ouFomGWkJs3GreXmEdeZY/3a8318772981be2932272a4f12df22b6/Genesisleft.gif)
*Genesisleft*

B) Painting the medium that’s meant for financial transactions is a big F* YOU to the finance maximalists. We’ve seen this recently with the lash out against ordinals from Bitcoin maxis. This is enough reason for me to mint stuff onchain :)

C) When a medium comes with new concepts but also introduces restrictions, people start innovating. The amount of cost optimization I’ve learned over the last 1.5 years is an artistic journey in itself, and I love this process.

D) Specifically for smart contracts, onchain art also creates very interesting mechanics like permanent dynamism, programmability or social coordination.

### What advice would you give to someone who is interested in creating fully on-chain art?

Onchain doesn’t have to be expensive as people say! I started with 1/1s and learned how to optimize SVGs. Artists and developers are finding new ways to optimize even further and things are getting cheaper per gwei!

![early-chaos-roads](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/5jLeMmJpAaPSrSl0XtQumV/90b7ff485740710ea69e7609140d80cf/early-chaos-roads.png)
*An early sketch of Chaos Roads*

I’m now building gen-art where thousands of pieces can be created by storing only 25-30 kb of smart contracts, with minimal mint price. This is by far the most innovative niche within the NFT space. Onchain art is the frontier of not just NFT art, but art in general in 2023.

### Where do you see on-chain NFTs going in the future?

Storing art onchain is fun, but I think we can go beyond that. I think a lot more “onchain mechanics” exploration will happen. I’m hoping to see more interoperable experiments, and more social coordination art onchain.

### Which piece of artwork do you not own that you want to collect?

I think an onchain collection is never full without an [Autoglyph](https://www.fullyonchain.art/collections/autoglyphs) :) Almost impossible to come by, but one can hope!

### What can we find Chainleft doing when he’s not busy with NFTs?

Either working at my day job, or playing with my kids.

### Thanks for taking the time for this conversation, what is the best way for people to follow you and your work?

You can find me in our discord server [Pushers](https://discord.com/invite/m2rMTHpw3j), in Bluesky as chainleft.bsky.social and on Twitter as [@chainleftist](https://twitter.com/chainleftist).

### Can you give a brief introduction of yourself?

I'm Mad Jack, a creator from Ontario, Canada.

I'm most known for creating [Mad Masks](https://madmasks.io/), an on-chain collection of 1024 pixel art masks with 12 ultra-rare mega masks. There are 12 base mask designs with 4 colour variations of each, making 48 different masks with various combinations of traits.

### Please tell us about your background and how you got into art and coding.

I've always been a computer nerd. Starting back when CD Roms were a revolutionary technology and dial-up internet was the only thing available. 

My Dad worked in IT, so I always had access to a computer. Regarding art, I was highly encouraged to create thanks to my mother, who continually crafts something and is a talented painter.

I started as an illustrator during school and shifted to web/graphic design. Since then, I have been working as a co-founder of an agency for about 15 years and counting. My focus is working with clients to reimagine their business and improve their physical and digital presence. 

Front-end web development is part of my skillset, so I've always dabbled with art and code. My expertise shines through in transforming a brand for digital.

I became interested in blockchain because of the intersection of art/development and the community built around it.

### Do you remember the first time you heard about NFTs?

I heard about NFTs in the news when they took off. Headlines were about how much money people were making and the craze capturing hope and promise. Mainly the big names like BAYC and Punks. I missed the initial run.

I started purchasing mostly ETH around 2017 but had not fully explored NFTs until January 2022. I was on holiday and revisited Twitter, discovering a rabbit hole of unique and fun content. At that time, we were at the top of a bull run, so the energy differed from the bear market. If I recall correctly it was Jack Butcher that got me onto NFTs since I was following him before through Visualize Value. 

My first purchase was Larva Lads, a wordplay on legendary Larva Labs, a clever punk remix. It's a unique community that made me appreciate meme culture's power. It's also where I connected with so many inspiring people. 

Twitter is where a lot of the content for NFTs lives. It's a gateway for discovering everything from influencers to collections to enthusiasts posting about this or that and spaces. You can really learn a lot if you know where to look. And there are so many helpful people here generous with their time. 

Navigating the space is an experience from your first crypto wallet to joining Discord and having fun in the metaverse. And simply having engaging or entertaining conversations.

![mm-01](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/4jpR4CY7U5kyjYYhkmbY1B/ab0216a76745e4d77194fea3066a1dd6/mm-01.jpeg)

### What inspired you to create Mad Masks?

Masks have always fascinated me. I've drawn, painted and even collected a few pieces over the years. 

Whether for utility, ceremony or simply as an art piece, they have always been interesting regarding the variety of use cases. Many of my childhood heroes, like Batman or Spawn, wore them too.

Part of it was creating something that was a passion of mine. The other part was frustration with how the space sometimes makes you feel. For anyone who has been here for more than a year, you have experienced the good and the bad and you see the same things repeatedly happen, which can be maddening. 

Specifically, in the context of NFTs, I wanted to create an end-to-end collection to explore generative art and see what I could develop with my take on adding something familiar yet refreshing.

Often in collections, you'd see masks as an accessory, so I wanted to make an entire collection dedicated to masks with enough variation and interest within the masks themselves to feel complete as a set.

### For Mad Masks, who or what were your biggest influences or sources of inspiration?

I've been a fan of pixel art since my childhood with playing games on Nintendo and GameBoy. My all-time favourites were classics like Mario, Mortal Kombat and Pokémon, to name a few!

The masks themselves are inspired from around the world. I wanted to represent as many cultures and continents as possible, from Native, Mexican, African and Asian-inspired reference points.

In NFTs, there were several collections I was inspired by, especially collections like the legendary Gremplin's Cryptoadz, Nouns and The Boneys, which is a smaller collection and more focused on the art and fun, a vibe I align with significantly.

### Which tools did you use to create Mad Masks?

I'm old school when it comes to making things. I created the original art in Adobe Illustrator and migrated it to Figma to finish.

One of the challenges with being an independent creator is the lack of a team and resources to lean on. Within these confines, you must rely on platforms to launch your collection successfully. 

When I first started, I wasn't sure if I would use IPFS or on-chain, but I was lucky to have discovered Indelible Labs, which made launching the collection possible. They're dedicated to helping creators launch collections fully on-chain. Configuring the mega masks was a little finicky but we made it happen.

There are so many tools you can use now where you don't need to reinvent the wheel when before, you needed to often create a custom solidity contract. I'm a big no-code advocate and value the developers that create platforms to empower creators to help put work out there that might not otherwise see the light of day. 

It's essential to try different things and have other skills, but you should also focus on your strengths and be realistic with where you spend your time and effort.

### What is something most people don't know about Mad Masks?

The reality of how long it can take to make something.

I created everything from scratch and as an independent operator doing this solo, it's beautiful and challenging to create something on your timeline and with a specific vision.

I toyed with the idea and developed it in my spare time for many months before officially launching the mint on Nov 5th as a nod to Guy Fawkes. A good product takes time to craft, especially when building a narrative, art, traits, website, content, promotion, and so on.

The backstory was essential to set the tone and help shape a storyline to accompany the collection from a lore point of view that is somewhat undervalued in the space. I went as far as creating a language that helps realize the parallel universe.

Mad Masks launched without promises outside of the art, yet I've since added a token-gated member area with more content coming soon. There might be other things coming this year. And we'll see. It's essential to be honest and upfront, where most collections seem to overpromise and underdeliver time after time.

The art is cc0 which inspires collaboration with the community and other creators, an aspect I want to explore even more.

Your Mad Mask can be rendered off-chain for instances like where you want to use it on Twitter. Compatibility with on-chain can be hit or miss from platform to platform.

If you look closely at the collection, you could find a twin or at least a look alike. 

There are also hidden traits in the collection!

![mm-05](//images.ctfassets.net/0ty17mikmgai/73i4XtBEuEMrW0DZp2UNX5/b37b61b517a796500efc38010c23df27/mm-05.jpeg)

### Why did you choose to make Mad Masks fully on-chain?

I appreciate having the art stored as code, which feels somewhat elegant and semi-permanent, compared to owning a token pointing to a URL somewhere else, which feels incomplete and problematic long-term.

Not having to worry about IPFS and web hosting with the storage of assets seemed like a no-brainer to me. The cost of on-chain is less economical, but because the collection was smaller, it was not an exorbitant fee to make it happen. If your artwork is optimized, such as pixel art, it aligns perfectly with on-chain as a solution which should be a first choice if you can make it work.

The enthusiasm for on-chain is small but present, and various communities I collaborate with appreciate prioritizing this aspect of NFTs.

### Where do you see on-chain artwork going in the future?

I have several associates that are creating outstanding artwork on-chain. 

Watching the direction of 1/1 artists I admire deeply, like [ripcache](https://twitter.com/ripcache) and [SmokeStacks](https://twitter.com/smokestacks), who are exploring and pushing the boundaries of what you can do with on-chain art. Especially when creating animation and interactive experiences, the possibilities for on-chain are endless. 

There is something special about creating on-chain work, including PFPs and art itself, which is a massive draw for me.

### Which piece of artwork do you not own that you want to collect?

I have a never-ending list. 

I went down the PFP rabbit hole, and recently my attention has turned toward generative and 1/1 artists.

Art Blocks is always putting out fantastic curated series of works. Grails such as Chromie Squiggles, XCOPY and others are high on my list as desired, yet slightly out of reach at this point for me. Owning a 1/1 ripcache would be epic! 

As a collector, there are emerging artists you can support with editions and other avenues to find something you can afford.

PFPs are something I come back to and they are iconic pieces. I think that will always stay the same. One day it would be epic to have a CryptoPunk. Memes play such a huge role, which is why I look up to artists like Batz who is doing an amazing job synthesizing the culture.

My goal is to help bridge the gap between PFPs and art.

### What do you like to do when you're not busy with NFTs?

I spend a good part of my time in client services at work and outside of that, I have a family that supports what I do which is a blessing.

My daughter recently turned 1.5 and I'm delighted to see her growth as she discovers the world, which is a true joy.

Recently I've been rediscovering my passion for illustration which has led me down a path of drawing and creating digital art again, which is something different style-wise than you'd expect since I'm mostly known at this point in the space for pixel art. But it's full circle for me going back to my roots.

You might see some 1/1 and edition work as I explore other aspects of creating. It likely will not be on-chain due to the nature of the art. But you never know.

I'm excited about this space long term. We're still in an early cycle, and I genuinely believe we're part of a movement that will transform and continue to evolve.
