13/ The Chromie Squiggle 3D Project is a celebration of the possibilities that blockchain, interoperability, and composability offer to creators and collectors. If you’re here collecting, designing, or building the infra for digital objects – you know how powerful these are. htt
Snowfro’s Chromie Squiggle (2020) was an instructional guide for the world’s creative coders to employ verifiable randomness to their algorithmic work – using blockchains as part of the work’s creation. As both an object of art and an icon of history, Chromie Squiggle represents one of our space’s most influential collections. Today, MONA’s Chromie Squiggle 3D Project (2024) is a technical celebration of the possibilities that blockchain, interoperability, and composability offer to the internet’s next generation of creators, collectors, and designers.

10/ The Chromie Squiggle 3D Project is not just a technical achievement – we believe the work reflects the broader impact 3D generative media will have across contemporary art, modern gaming, and the emerging crypto economy. https://t.co/semEbDdgaQ
What MONA has built here captures the essence of interoperability that makes the blockchain such a powerful tool. We’ve demonstrated through generative art the power of individual expression as part of a larger family of works and they’ve taken it to the next level by enabling collectors to live with their Squiggles in a 3D environment. I can’t wait to explore all of the Squiggles in 3D and see what MONA can unlock by recreating the Squiggle in this way.

9/ Throughout this process, @ArtOnBlockchain’s input and collaboration was invaluable. Snowfro’s insights helped us navigate the project's complexities while maintaining the integrity of the original Chromie Squiggle algorithm. https://t.co/7AGSamtZb4

8/ By meticulously designing each of the 12 categories (six main and six hypervariants), we ensured that the 3D Squiggles would resonate with collectors familiar with the original project while also appealing to new audiences. https://t.co/jvrRVIA9vd

7/ We had to ensure that the Squiggle maintained its characteristic fluidity and randomness while also gaining depth and volume. This involved small tweaks to the original algorithm and introducing new parameters to control the 3D form's curvature, orientation, and thickness. ht

6/ Our main challenge was translating the 2D algorithm into 3D space. In the original Squiggle, each point on the line is calculated based on specific mathematical rules. Our task was to take these points, represented as circles in 2D, and transform them into spheres in 3D https

5/ Converting the Chromie Squiggle to 3D was a meticulous process. It started as a three way dialogue between @monaverse, @artonblockchain, + @derekedws. Next, we tapped the help of in-house award-winning game designer and Art Blocks artist, @ryangreen8. https://t.co/hXyfIDmmlQ
When Justin approached me with this initiative I got super excited but also realized that while recreating a “normal” Chromie Squiggle in 3D might be relatively straightforward, recreating the variants was going to be really complex. I was worried that a good result might simply not be achievable, especially with variants like Slinky and Ribbed Squiggles. I was ultimately blown away by Ryan’s magical coding skills and his ability to interpret the complex variants as well, which required not just a deep understanding of the Squiggle math itself, but an artistic approach in the subjective interpretation and evolution of the 2D Squiggle into 3D.

4/ Snowfro’s Chromie Squiggle experiment fused generative art, math, along with the permanence guarantees and verifiable randomness afforded by the @ethereum blockchain. At MONA, it was important for us to follow the same design constraints as the original artist. https://t.co/V

3/ The beauty of the Chromie Squiggle lies in its simplicity. Using minimal dependencies, the collection’s onchain algorithm has generated a total of 10,000 unique variations, each distinct yet part of a cohesive whole. https://t.co/xKy2UWhMwW

2/ To start, this project is more than just a technical exercise for our team. This project is MONA's way of paying tribute to Chromie Squiggle, and giving back to our crypto art community at large. https://t.co/cyarPuPN03

1/ Over a six month period, our team took on the challenge of converting the Chromie Squiggle into 3D, using Snowfro's algorithm as the foundation. Today, in collaboration with @ArtOnBlockchain, all 10,000 Squiggles are now available to explore in 3D, AR, and VR at @monaverse. h
