Generative art comes in a variety of formats. There's long-form art, where artists publish their algorithms directly, giving up control over the outputs and allowing the outputs to be generated in real-time.
There's also short-form collections, where artists create algorithms, curate the outputs, and then publish their creations with intention and sequence.
Artists have expressed a desire for a balance between these two approaches, which is why we have introduced a new format: Medium-form!
Medium-form projects allow the artist to select a collection of curated outputs and loads them into a sort of 'gumball machine.' When a collector mints a piece from a medium-form collection, they receive a randomly selected work that has been curated by the artist.
