888 days ago, @vrde and I hid some poetry in the ether in a fit of computational poetics.
They wrote me today about how the moon is 88% full. It’s the 8th month of the year.
It’s time for Verselets to surface.

Q: What do Dadaist poetry and fashion have to do with my & @vrde 's new project verselets.garden?
A: Everything.
Dadaist readymade poetry emphasises power of the object. They’re amulets, after all. Verselets is a collection of computed objects based on poetic emotion.

An overall story told in looks, each a narrative in its own right. The whole, the sum and entity of its parts. This was the principle that guided my selecting, structuring and curating the collections of amulets for verselets.garden.

Enjoy the glimpses collected for verselets.garden in sips, or drink them in from top to bottom. Flick through them, or keep them forever thanks to @vrde's clever contracts.

for the next hour, send me an image or phrase and i'll write you a short poem it inspires...

Want to know about @vrde's brutal computation behind our poetics project verselets.garden, you say? Say no more. 👀👇
Code rundown time!
First of all, mad respect to the 🐐 @nicksdjohnson for creating the Amulet contract. To understand how Verselets works, you first need to understand what Amulet does.
Amulet is responsible for two things:
- Check that your amulet is valid (less than 64 bytes and the hash contains at least four consecutive 8s).
- Check that it doesn't already exist.
If both conditions are true, you can register your amulet as an ERC-1155.

babe wake up new amulets just dropped
888 days ago, @amuletrix and I hid poetry on-chain, in Ethereum.
Each poem satisfies:
𝒫 = { s ∈ {U 0000 … U 10FFFF}* | |UTF8(s)| ≤ 64 ∧ "8888" ∈ SHA256(s) }
Even the moon is 88% illuminated today... I think the universe is telling me to release Verselets once and for all.

I’m honoured that @vrde asked me to go on the quest with them. They’ve always had a really active sense of aesthetic, and to be able to collaborate on creating some new lenses through which to look at computed poetry has been a gift.

Take a little stroll with us through our garden of tiny verses. We’re cultivating meaning in a rich soil of linguistic data. 💜
