Into The Collection
Deep Dives Into The Top Generative Art Collections

Fidenza by Tyler Hobbs with special guest Andrew Badr
In this episode we perform a comprehensive analysis of Fidenza by Tyler Hobbs, widely considered as one of the best generative art collections, a masterful manifestation of the flow fields technique, and considered the collection that put generative art on the map. Today we have a special guest with us, the great collector and Fidenza expert Andrew Badr, who is also an artist in his own right with the Artblocks Curated collection Aesemica (co-created with Emily Edelman and Dima Ofman). We lean heavily on Andrew's expertise for this episode and are confident you will enjoy learning from him as we did!
