what's Augurs NFT?
Augurs NFT is the digital art project of Brazilian artist Henrique Cartaxo, focusing on video performances, glitch aesthetics, and algorithmic explorations of the digital body. His works blend film editing, documentary elements, and coded narration to create dystopian tutorials that disrupt traditional authorship through AI narration and image degradation. Minted primarily on the Tezos blockchain via platforms like Teia and Objkt, the editions explore themes of social performance, artificial misinterpretation, and the residue of human expression in degraded archives. Cartaxo's practice collapses dance, code, and visual damage into interactive pieces, often released as limited editions or 1/1s. By deploying glitch techniques and instructional errors, his NFTs reframe the viewer's interaction with form and meaning, emphasizing shared ruptures in digital media. This approach positions Augurs NFT at the intersection of contemporary art and blockchain, enabling accessible ownership of conceptual video art without centralized intermediaries.
