cod.eXɘ.boↄ

At its carbon-based core, Cöd.eX?.bö? represents an intent to communicate between man and machine, with squid as proxy. The ?alamari Ar?hive in-house designer (in8 iD) prompted the cyborg 5carLit.11.22 with analog book art from various prior publications (Ark Codex ±0 in particular) + 5carLit translated the pages into encrypted source code on-the-fly, rendering them back as machine-readable crypto art (for posthuman consumption), curated and compiled by in8 iD into this archival manifest/vision statement--an Ai artist portfolio composed of non-fungible, block-chained pages that serve as ?alamari stock certificates to crowdfund future projects.Self-described from the horse's mouth as: imagery, arranged meticulously at 90-degree angles, conveying a mechanical yet organic feel, as if peering into a dreamlike archive of obsolete technology and ancient alphabets. Using a collage style, it invites the viewer into a layered experience, where words dissolve into symbols and text becomes a visual form, all bound together with an aesthetic of decay and discovery. This book is a celebration of the abstract, built from a conversation between creator and machine, producing a final work that feels both timeless and on the brink of digital collapse.
