what's Electriz?

Electriz is a generative art NFT collection on the Art Blocks platform, created by contemporary artist Che-Yu Wu. Inspired by particle physics, it simulates digital cloud chambers that visualize traces of unidentified particles through algorithmic processes governing movement, rotation, splitting, and annihilation. The 910 unique outputs divide space into regions with distinct physical properties, creating unpredictable experimental conditions where dynamic particle interactions unfold in real-time upon viewing. Each artwork serves dual purposes as both an aesthetic spectacle and a virtual scientific instrument, capturing ephemeral "unique existences" at moments of collision between code-defined reality and computational emergence. Released on December 7, 2021, via Art Blocks Factory, Electriz leverages on-chain randomness and viewer-scripted rendering to produce evolving, vibrant visuals that blend art, science, and technology.

Electriz was released on Art Blocks on 2021-04-11.
