London-based artist Anthony Heideman, better known as MountVitruvius or “MV,” has carved out a unique space in the field of generative art by incorporating personal memories and literary inspiration into his algorithmic creations.
His 999-piece “Mind the Gap” series is inspired by childhood games and exploration, and is released for the first time on generative art platform gm. Studio, while his “Render’s Game” series explores the iterative nature of cumulative achievement, paying homage to MV’s artistic journey and Orson Scott Card’s 1985 science fiction novel “Ender’s Game.”

Neel Shivdasani is an artist and technologist from Atlanta, who creates generative art while leading AI innovation at the media software company Automattic.
Shivdasani has a professional background that includes working at top digital publishing and e-commerce platforms. His expertise in technology is undoubtedly undeniable, but his true creative passion lies in pushing the boundaries of using code as an artistic medium.
Shivdasani's first series, 'Tropism', was released on OpenSea in 2021. During the Marfa Art Blocks Weekend, he launched 'Motion Pictures', a series of 100 pieces that turned animated art into a tactile interactive experience, visible both on-screen and in prints.
