Paradigm

MEET PARADIGM

Paradigm is an exploration of monoscopic 3D illusions and a potential pipeline for producing pseudo-3D digital artifacts out of generated or pre-existing 2D images, for a new generation of collectibles.

PRODUCTION

This exploratory prototype was produced for a friend looking to find novel Web3 interactions, made with Blender, Unity, ImageFX, and Marigold.

Although I found some success with NFTs myself, I find that the best digital collectibles rely on thoughtful experience design. I believe the Steam trading system is an overlooked case study in producing digital value without the need for blockchain.
