Waveblocks
A limited NFT collection of algorithmically generated art inspired by waves. Waveblocks is a collaborative art project by Marc Hemeon @hemeon and William Ngan @williamngan.
Welcome List members will be the first to mint their NFTs. 10% proceeds of this project will be donated to Surfrider Foundation to stop offshore drilling.
About
Marc is a seascape artist who has been painting waves and water for over 15 years. William is a creative coder who has been producing beautiful art with code his entire life. Marc and William met a few years ago and developed a deep friendship based on art and design. They came together and merged their two worlds to create Waveblocks - 1024 unique wavescapes.
We have two goals with this project - 1) Can a computer create art that expresses emotion, much like a painting? and 2) Can we inspire a new generation of people to start creating art with code.
William created the open source library Pts. ptsjs.org which is core to our waveblocks project. We hope waveblocks gets you excited and inspired to express what you see in your minds eye.
Most ideas can be conveyed with the right combination of points, shapes, colors, motions, interactions, and more. Thats why William made Pts - is lightweight and modular. Written in typescript, it comes with many useful algorithms for visualization and creative coding. Its friendly API supports both quick prototyping and bigger projects. check it out here: ptsjs.org
Thank you for supporting our project.
