i downloaded all 10.000 of those ugly lazy lions nfts and turned them into a mosaic of a person right-clicking
Stellar (not lewd)
@Dee they are literally generated. as if they were picrews. so, not surprising, but sad nonetheless @nicodotgay
@Dee @nicodotgay Procedural generation?
@Dee @nicodotgay @drwho virtually all the nft collections are done this way. There are a few dozens to a couple hundred « traits » which are then combined on a template to create the individual nfts.
@qorg scraped them from opensea's api, deleted all the ones that didn't match the color palette of the base photo close enough with imagemagick, and used a python/opencv program called polyfoto that i found on github to assemble the mosaic from the remaining lions
what a shame
@nicodotgay I love it.

@nicodotgay there we are. this is actual art, instead of procedurally-generated crap
@nicodotgay this is art and it belongs in a museum
@nicodotgay but, who owns it???
@mmu_man @nicodotgay nobody, but you can buy a link that points to it for a mere $20k
@nicodotgay very weird way to get introduced to lazy lions, this whole thing knocked me right out of balance i tell you hwat
@nicodotgay wow, it's a kind of #mastoart

@nicodotgay wow! this is really cool! out of curiosity: may i ask about how you went about making it?
@nicodotgay beautiful, and I think we all can agree that this is mine and we can start the bidding at 200€ 😂

@nicodotgay 🤣 👍 well done nice job
@nicodotgay this is fantastic! 
@nicodotgay how do you do such kind of compositing? Is there a software you would advise on linux?
whoop, whoop! it's da sound of da police
@nicodotgay this is the neo-pointillism we deserve, but also the neo-pointillism we need.
@nicodotgay now that's art. That's an image with inherent worth.
