🎁 Giveaways
Sadly no giveaway today... Huge L from me. I had a couple of good ones lined up but couldn't get the newsletter out in time. I'll do better next time for you all, but don't fear, there are still some goodies lined up! On that note, if you are an artist or creator and want to give away allowlist spots or some free art or anything, let me know we can try to arrange something!
By the way, would you be interested in smaller, but more frequent newsletters? This would allow me to get these giveaways to you sooner with more time. Let me know!

Highlight On-Chain Projects
Highlight has recently opened up their platform to allow custom rendering contracts, which in turn has allowed artists to create on-chain projects!

Newly featured projects (full archive)
ZIMA - Nahiko x Highlight
Legendary on-chain artist Nahiko has a released his newest project ZIMA, which is described as “a collection of code poems (poems written in javascript) running inside the NFT, and paired with beautiful talismans”. Aside from the beautiful artwork, Zima looks to push boundaries of artwork that can only be done on-chain. By the way this is still minting!
Final Forms - 8-Bit
Final Forms is the latest project from 8-Bit, who we featured last issue. This minimalistic geometric collection uses simple shapes and colors to create beautiful compositions. While simple from first glance, each piece has unique shapes that can be observed.
Witness the Draft - Untitled Frontier
Witness The Draft is an innovative art project by Untitled Frontier that combines literature, social, and dynamic on-chain NFT. These NFTs, each featuring a unique grid of eyes and daily log, allow owners to interact socially by "witnessing" others’ pieces, symbolized by opening or closing eyes. When one witnesses another piece, their piece will open an eye at the index of your piece. Such a fantastic feature! Read more about it here.

The Workshop - seb
The Workshop explores the contrast between the Renaissance and modern times, where advanced digital tools often obscure craftsmanship, seb wanted to ensure the essence of art remains visible—even in paintings made of 0s and 1s.
One - Miragenesi
ONE is a unique, collectively owned, and collaboratively generated NFT that evolves alongside its collectors, each represented by circles that vary in position, color, radius, and depth with every trade. This ERC1155 token comprises 110 fragments, each connected to an owner’s wallet, which serves as a seed to generate circles within the piece. Some circles may shift to the background or even fade to black, only to re-emerge later, as blending changes dynamically with time, ultimately rendering the NFT dark at night and offering a new visual experience.
Mass - James Bloom
Mass is a shared 3D interactive blockchain space that dynamically evolves for each viewer, blending community connection with fragmentation and unreliable communication through deliberate code bugs, reimagining our online environment as a space of unpredictable change and decentralized agency.
Boo's Crew
Boo is a little pixel ghost just trying to live his lil life! Now he's lost in the metaverse and has mixed with some of his favorite collections. 👻
birds
"birds" is the newest edition in the ripcache collection "Remote Control". This latest on-chain art project continues his exploration of themes around surveillance and technology. This is a good chance to own an on-chain ripcache work at an affordable price before these become unattainable.
