Mur (Swedish for 'wall') was released on fx(hash) on May 6th 2022 as generative token 12541 with an edition number of 365. All iterations were minted on the same day.

Mur is a series of computational drawings of stacked and falling bricks. The bricks are placed in different configurations of walls, towers, stacks and paths, and are then exposed to gravity.

The project was much inspired by the etchings of Giovanni Battista Piranesi and the tradition of vedute ideate and caprice, detailed drawings of imaginary sites.

The graphics are coded with p5.js and the rigid body simulations with ammo.js. In live mode, press 's' to save a screenshot and 'e' to save a high resolution image. Press 't' to toggle textures.

Each scene is drawn first brick by brick as the bricks fall or stay in place, then the scene is drawn in a snapshot as a whole after a certain physical simulation time. Mur is optimized for Chrome, uses WebGL and may not work in all browsers.
