Challenges

The road to success in the NFT market is not easy. One of the biggest challenges was gaining the critical mass of users and collectors. The NFT industry is still in its early stages of development and many people still do not fully understand how it works or its value. The new and digital nature of NFTs can generate doubts and distrust among some users.

Another challenge we faced was the paradigm shift in creating generative art. Many artists are used to traditional techniques and media, and entering a new world of emerging technologies represented a challenge. By incorporating artificial intelligence and procedural generation into art, new possibilities were opened up, but there was also a need to learn and adapt to a new creative process. Artists had to overcome their fear of technology and venture into new territories to explore and experiment with these new media.

Solution

With this project, we seek to push the limits of technology and creativity. With EMPROPS, art is not only created through code, but is also generated in real-time through a collaboration between the artist, their generative code, and one or more AI systems.

Initially, the first version of EMPROPS was implemented on the Secret Network blockchain. Secret Network is a privacy-focused blockchain that focuses on protecting the privacy and anonymity of transaction data. The Secret Network blockchain stands out for offering complete privacy and security in transactions and associated data, thanks to its advanced cryptographic technology. This guarantee of confidentiality is highly valued by collectors who seek to protect their information and investments.

The first EMPROPS collection was an unprecedented success, with 1024 tokens generated through a procedural algorithm in p5.js that created a wide variety of unique and unrepeatable art. p5.js is a powerful tool in generative art, as it offers a wide range of creative possibilities and allows artists to explore new ways of creating digital art from code. Each piece of art generated by the algorithm had a unique and distinct combination of colors, shapes, and patterns, making it unique and valuable. The collection was very popular among collectors and sold quickly. The combination of technology and art generated great interest in the market and established EMPROPS as an innovative force in the NFT space.

Currently, EMPROPS has explored new technologies and entered the Tezos blockchain. Tezos is a leading blockchain in the world of generative art that allows artists and collectors to explore new ways of creating, storing, and selling art. Tezos' ability to perform smart contracts allows for the safe and reliable creation and transfer of art tokens, making them an ideal medium for the transaction and exchange of generative art.

The adoption of Tezos allows EMPROPS to offer a more robust and secure platform to its users, which in turn increases confidence in the NFT market.

The exact generation process for each collection varies from project to project, but in general, all EMPROPS collections are created in real time through a unique collaboration between the artist, their generative code, and one or more AI systems. Each piece is unique and is generated in real time, resulting in authentic and constantly evolving art.

With EMPROPS, users can experience and participate in a new digital art form, while enjoying the privacy, security and transparency of transactions on the platform.

Conclusion

EMPROPS is an ambitious project, the combination of artificial intelligence and generative code created a visual experience that shocked everyone who had the opportunity to experience it.

EMPROPS marked a milestone in the history of our company and at LKMX we are proud to have conceptualized and executed this project that pushed what is considered art to the limits and, at the same time, revolutionized the way people think about technology and its role in artistic creation.

The three-way collaboration between the artist, code, and AI systems demonstrates the vision and dedication of our team to carry out innovative projects. Our team will continue to work hard to carry out more innovative projects in the future. We will continue to explore the limits of technology and creativity to provide our clients with a unique and innovative experience in the world of art.
