This is a GIF built upon random words beginning with N, F and T. There are 48 of them out there. I've chosen as the name of the artwork and the method of creation is described below. The only missing thing is the inspiration - it comes partly from my absurd word art pieces and partly from a tweet by Rizzle yesterday. To that tweet, I answered with made up but sensible words for N F T - this one this time here is a randomization game.

First Stage Two random word generators with slightly different characteristics are selected. Random searches for N, F and T are made. Whenever a word starting with that letter flashes, that word is used. Subsequently a list of 48 words for the 48 frames of the GIF are built.

Second Stage Words are inputted to the GIF green concentration level 48 frame GIF. Font, color and placement decisions are made. Ordering is based on the randomization of the First Stage.

Third Stage Final GIF touches including border, speed and size are determined before the drop.

Fourth Stage Drop, description, pricing and minting.
