This image is generated by manually entering 30,000 values between 0 and 9 into custom software. Each keypress selects one red, green or blue colour value. When three values are entered, a pixel is set to those RGB values.

The aim of this process is to create a random distribution of colours, for the artist to act as a random number generator. Humans are not good at this task, and so patterns appear in the image, basic traces of the human gesture in the digital image.

Transactions on the Ethereum network are verified by a system called proof of work, which involves forcing computers to solve meaningless, difficult equations before data can be written to the blockchain. https://rhizome.org/editorial/2021/mar/03/another-new-world/

The most popular series of NFT collectibles are algorithmically generated. Most culture now has the feeling of having been made by algorithm; and the reason for this, is that humans have begun to act like algorithms. https://www.spikeartmagazine.com/articles/downward-spiral-popular-things-dean-kissick

In Proof of Work the artist manually chooses a colour value for each pixel in the image, attempting act as a random number generator. Due to the repetitive nature of the task, the artist fails to generate true random values, creating patterns the image that attest to the physiological and mental state of the artist at the time of creation.
