BUILT ON eleven years OF DIGITAL ART DATA.
Every instrument in The Vitrine is calibrated against Protagonist Art's catalog (1,000+ minted works) and the secondary-market data for digital art going back to 2014. The Mint's generators are seeded from compositional principles documented in the Vol. 02 research. The Profile's archetypes are derived from collector survey data. The methodology is in the Catalogue, free.
