Simple Golden Ball(Mini)

The rise of AI in the creative scene has been met with both praise and criticism. However, the fact that new designs can be born from only imagination or ideas, even without any skills, is likely to significantly push the boundaries of creation. As a result, my mother living quietly might be able to design a logo on her smartphone and make money by selling T-shirts.

My first work on Zora is themed around a "dialogue" with generative AI.

There are no limits to generative AI. As everyone gets excited about its skill level, I deliberately seek the simplest and most compact tasks as a punk reaction to complexity, positioning it at the opposite of complexity and pursuing the limits of simplicity that anyone can imagine.

In our dialogue, by demanding simplicity to the extreme, AI broke through limits, and there were moments when the concept of minimalism collapsed.

Among various variations generated, this Golden Ball was the closest to the image I had imagined beforehand.

For the debut collection, three sizes: Small, Medium, and Large will be available. This mini size is an additional ball for those with a fancy for a fourth.

In the real world, the price of gold varies according to its purity and weight, but as an NFT, the price is fixed, and with Zora, it's available for free mint. This is a kind of humor that can be realized because it's crypto.

A sphere, without distinction of up, down, left, right, front, and back, can't even stay still unless it's genuinely flat. It's the simplest yet most elusive object among all shapes in this world.

Whether you complete the entire set or cherish the size you prefer is up to you. This questions the meaning of simplicity in today's world, where information is saturated, and things tend to be overcomplicated.
