Provenance
Minted by Dmitri Cherniak Acquired from above Catalogue note The Wrapture is a generative edition with unique properties. Technicallycould have been capped at 666 editions, however holders of The Eternal Pump had the opportunity to limit the edition to 50 algorithmic editions if they cooperated. The rules were fairly simple: as long as no one traded, sold, or listed their edition for sale within the year, no additional editions would be made available for minting. However, if one collector broke the rules, the remainder of the 666 editions will be opened up to the public for minting. Collectors were faced with an interesting dilemma, ultimately they won and the edition was capped at 50. Made by Dmitri Cherniak with Javascript and GLSL.
