what's ringers by dmitri cherniak?
Ringers is a generative art NFT collection on the Ethereum blockchain, minted via the Art Blocks platform, consisting of 1,000 unique pieces that algorithmically depict strings wrapped around pegs to create abstract, tension-filled compositions. The core value proposition lies in democratizing access to high-quality computational art, allowing collectors to own verifiable on-chain editions of algorithmically generated works that blend mathematics, physics, and aesthetics. Key technical features include a custom algorithm that simulates physical string behaviors with procedural variations in peg placement, string count, and tension dynamics, ensuring each output is distinct yet cohesive within the series' minimalist style. Targeted at digital art enthusiasts and crypto collectors, Ringers occupies a premium position in the generative NFT market, with floor prices historically exceeding six figures in ETH and notable sales like 10-21 ETH for individual pieces. The project has fostered ecosystem ties through museum collaborations, such as editions with LACMA and MoMA, and integrations with platforms like Avant Arte, elevating generative art's institutional recognition.
