OF GENERATIVE ART.
Rising Echoes by Medusa
In Rising Echoes, we push the boundaries of generative art, being one of the first using recursion techniques on Bitcoin.
Inspired by Mondrian’s iconic subdivisions and sci-fi aesthetics, this collection reflects the infinite potential of technical precision and artistic expression.
With every piece, a world of complex geometries and colors evolves, drawing the viewer into a futuristic cosmos of order and chaos.

BREAKING THE LIMITS WITH RECURSION
A SCI-FI COLOR SYMPHONY
“Inspired by the geometric precision of Mondrian and the bold colors of sci-fi, this collection invites viewers to explore a fusion of art, technology, and imagination.”
PIONEERING RECURSIVE GENERATIVE ART
MASTERING DETAIL THROUGH CODE
Crafted through intricate JavaScript and P5.js coding, each piece is a technical marvel, with 24 unique packing functions, 39 growth techniques, and 4 grid generation methods. The technical depth behind each piece mirrors the complexity of recursion itself, where each pattern grows with impeccable precision.
HISTORIC BITCOIN COLLECTION
As his debut collection on Bitcoin, Medusa cements his place in the generative art space. Inscribed on Hal Finney’s legendary Block 78 Sats, Rising Echoes connects the legacy of the blockchain’s early days with the future of digital art.
BREAKING THE LIMITS WITH RECURSION
Utilizing recursive inscriptions, Rising Echoes breaks through the limitations of Bitcoin's 4MB storage cap. Each piece references the algorithm inscription, creating an interconnected web of art that thrives on the blockchain. This innovation opened the door to more complex, evolving artforms on the Bitcoin network.
A CHROMATIC HOMAGE TO SCI-FI POSTERS
With 96 unique color palettes, including tributes to classic sci-fi movie posters, Rising Echoes adds a nostalgic twist to its futuristic theme. The palettes evoke the wonder and curiosity of exploration, pulling viewers into a world of discovery and color.
THE STATS BEHIND THE ART
Hovering over each piece reveals detailed stats—color palette, building heights, and even a rarity score—allowing collectors to dive deeper into the structure and uniqueness of their artwork.
A TRIBUTE TO PIET MONDRIAN
Inspired by the works of Piet Mondrian, Rising Echoes takes his concept of grid-based abstraction and brings it to life through subdivision algorithms. These algorithms mimic the recursive nature of Mondrian’s art, creating a constantly evolving canvas that expands his legacy into the digital realm.
