/ABOUT: ewok.btc is a scientist whose art includes biogenerative, scifi, personal, and comedic elements /NOSTR
/ALPHABETA: Overlay of molecular structures of two proteins. This piece is comprised of animations I made while in graduate school, which marked the beginning of my interest in digital, data-driven art. (coming soon to bitcoin)
/10KCOLLECTION.SATS: Depending on how you define “first”, the Ordinals projects Bitmap Punks, Honey Badgers, On Chain Monkey or Node Monkes could be considered the first 10k collection on bitcoin. I inscribed 10kcollection.sats as the literal first “10k collection” on bitcoin, as no other inscribed instance of this phrase could be found at the time of inscription via unisat.io. (magiceden.io)
/SIGNAL TO NOISE: Heatmap derived from data collected in four of my published scientific studies. I reversed the process of scientific discovery by stripping away the context of the data down to single digits. This makes the table appear to include only unrelated, random numbers. However, since the numbers come from real world, biological data, there remains meaningful hidden structure in the grid. This invites the viewer to participate in parsing signal from noise. Issuance of 25. (Gamma.io)
/SELF-PORTRAIT, MUTATION: Personal Sanger DNA sequencing traces. I extracted DNA directly from my cells to generate the bottom trace. In a second sample, I mutated my DNA to produce the top trace. Each peak and color represents a unique DNA base (A, T, C or G) in part of a gene with 19 bases shown here in total. This biogenerative process resulted in the center base changing from T to C, resulting in a slightly different, mixed peak by comparison. To further separate this work from being purely scientific, I did not record specific details about the experimental process. Issuance of 50. (Gamma.io)
/PEPEDASE: In bacteria, the enzyme Peptidase E (PepE) is encoded by the gene PEPE. PEPEDASE is a molecular view of PepE enzyme’s 3D structure based on publicly available scientific data. I made this as a believer in Matt Furie’s #SavePepe movement, and to help bring the bitcoin tradition of Pepe on Counterparty to the Stacks ecosystem, which at the time had very little Pepe content. Issuance of 5. (Gamma.io)
/MONOLITHS: A recurring theme in science fiction, art, religion and sacred geometries that adds depth to flat surfaces in the public eye. Monoliths are a multidimensional, collaborative, anonymous work between the person removing the graffiti, the artist whose graffiti was removed, and myself. (circa 2015)
/ZINES & STICKERS: (request for free, ewok [a.t) glowing.surf)
