“Pindar's byteGANs are how I imagine the inhabitants of the Ethereum blockchain, between a little virus and a classic pixel art being. They have their own character, skin color, and evolution story. It's like rewriting "Sapiens" for the Ethereum blockchain. “

Description:
“The bitGANs are a culmination of my life’s work. It is a brief history of this space, as well as a semi-autobiographical record of my journey through it. Furthermore, it is growing quickly to include the story of a group of enthusiasts that are calling themselves the bitGANg. bitGANs began when I accidentally stumbled into a beautiful and hypnotic algorithm while making nounGANs. It continues today as each drop reveals more and more about why they have begun appearing and where they are coming from. Their future includes the involvement of the bitGANg, with plans to release all the training data used to make bitGANs, as well as tutorials explaining the secrets behind how the training data was used. Join us in solving the mystery of the bitGANs. There will only ever be 2048.” The skullGANs represent Evolutionary Intelligence. Their existence is a battle being fought within the human mind, where higher order brain functions are at constant odds with reptilian instincts. Does free will even exist, or is everything just a complex biochemical reaction.
