Hello friends 👋,
Just got back from an amazing few days in Paris. Multiple blockchain-related events took place, headlined by Bright Moments and NFT Paris. I was really impressed by the vibe, the incredibly high attendance, and the quality of the events.
The future looks extremely bright for our space.
This hidden gems edition covers some of my favorite finds of the week…
💎 Gem of the day
Lightbreak by Luke Shannon via Bright Moments
Luke crafted a 100-piece masterpiece for Bright Moments, an artwork that transforms from amazing to outstanding when viewed on a high-quality display.
Lightbreak is an algorithm that deals with light, reflection, refraction, and self-reflection; a particle of light starts at a position in a direction and then interacts with itself; its path becomes boundaries for itself and other light.
This is an animated piece, so I highly recommend you open the original work in full-screen mode.

🔥 Product to Watch
Algorithmic Perfumery via Metaversal
During the Metaversal side event, a machine that produces AI-generated perfume according to your personality was displayed as a performance. To get your perfumes (3 bottles for $40), you had to answer a personality 10-question test, which would be used as the input.
Thanks to ClownVamp for the alpha. Talking about ClownVamp, he has a new AI collection coming out in a few weeks called PUPPIES.
