“A truly open heart and the sign of true love is complete surrender. To give full love is a beautiful surrender because it means you are willing to completely let go of any control over what may happen next. This is a crazy thing, to let everything go so your heart can join another, and that is why so few people ever do it. The entire semblance of control is an illusion anyway, and when one truly loves, that illusion is plain.” -Trey Ratcliff

This Machine Elf collaboration brings together the generative fractal work of Trey Ratcliff and music composed by Tina Guo to form a visual meditation. In this first release from the series, a limited edition of only 20 videos, each has a variety of different characteristics. Because Tina created this music specifically for the heart chakra, each of the 20 pieces contains a different written “heart musings,” each of which are embedded into the videos at the end. Each of the 20 pieces have a unique rarity based upon the word content of these musings. Tina’s sound meditation became one of the mathematical waveform coefficients that fed into the generation of this fractal. You will notice it move and dance with her cello. Also, #20 of 20 is quite unique, as it is the only one that is rendered in 360, thus making it usable in VR.

This is the first of many Machine Elf collaborations and collectors of multiple artists will reap special benefits. See more about the project at www.the-machine-elf.com or join our fun discord at discord.gg/treyratcliff
