Introduction
Entheos is the first generative AI art project on Cardano. Primarily an art project, Entheos pledges to spearhead the new wave of art into NFT space through creating a series of artworks showcasing Entheos’ ever-evolving technical innovation and artistic creativity. Through this, we wish to introduce the potential of AI art to the masses.
As a CNFT project, Entheos envisions a future in which Entheos holders get exclusive access to a community of artists, art collectors and others. The focus of Entheos community (Entheons) are the art industry and NFTs. Secondly, constant collaboration with other NFT projects on all chains is part of the agenda. This is because we believe no NFT projects are an island. Along the way, we wish to bring more smaller artists into the spotlight.
To summarise, Entheos is an embodiment of fine art and a CNFT project. While seeking to be one of the pioneers of AI art in this age, Entheos is a project that constantly creates value to the NFT space.
Roadmap
Entheos NFTs & Utilities
Pre-Generative Series
Gen 1-3 Entheos - All early releases of Entheos art signify early adoption and support of the project
Collectors Edition / Exclusive Tokens - 220 PreGenerative Series Collectors pieces were released. Only a small number of Exclusive tokens exist. Exclusive Tokens are the highest level asset Entheos offers.
Generative Series
Generative series was a large release of 25,403 NFTs which took place over 3 separate epochs (drops).
E1-E3
Epoch 1 - Consisted of a release of 10k unique NFTs. Each piece was algorithmically generated but gave holders the ability to select from different styles and backgrounds
Epoch 2 - Similar to Epoch 1 this was a large drop of over 9k pieces each piece of which was unique and algorithmically generated. Unlike Epoch 1 Epoch 2 offered the first 4k resolution images as well as added new categories that were not available in Epoch 1. Some of the styles in Epoch 1 were no longer available in Epoch 2
Epoch 3 - This was the last drop of the Generative Series and unlike the still images released in E1 and E2, here the works were AI generated animations which started as base images similar to those found in the previous epochs but then evolved into AI generated scenes with different features including scenes like natural forest and cityscapes, as well as objects like dragons and mythical creatures.
Signature Pieces pieces were released in all 3 epochs. Signature pieces are special pieces that will be used to generate more works in a later series. Only 300 signature pieces exist and they award perks and special utility to the holders such as discounted rates and early access to Entheos drops.
Evolves
Evolution provided a way for Entheos holders to evolve their Generative Series NFTs into higher quality animations. Evolution was available for any Generative series NFT and produced similar animations to those generated in E3 but of a much higher quality.
Custom evolution was available to a limited number of works and allowed holders to choose a phrase or set of features that would depict the end result of the animation produced.
What’s Ahead?
Phoenix Series (mid-February 2022)
Phoenix Series is a new form of animation in which the artworks move through a particular scene before evolving into an image of a phoenix. These pieces are available to holders who wish to burn a minimum of 1 Generative Series NFT. Phoenix Series NFTs will be the first Entheos pieces released to be works of are that incorporate soundscapes.
Collector Series (from mid-March)
3,000 Collectors Series NFTs will be released.
Each Collectors Series NFT will be minted 1 of a set of 10 pieces made from a unique piece of art.
Every Collectors Series NFT will be made from and inspired by a signature piece released in the Generative Series. Signature holders of the piece used to create the set will receive royalties in the amount of 10% on primary sales.
Exclusive tokens will be made available to any collector able to collect all 10 of a set. Exclusive NFTs will provide holders with the highest benefits including early access to works, free digital prints, and royalties on future project works.
