SPECTRUM

SPECTRUM represents a systematic exploration of the visible electromagnetic spectrum, rendered as a comprehensive collection of 3,701 unique digital artifacts. Each piece captures a precise wavelength of light between 380.0 and 750.0 nanometers at 0.1nm increments, creating a complete mapping of human visual perception.

This work operates at the intersection of scientific precision and artistic expression. By isolating individual wavelengths and their corresponding chromatic values, the collection transforms abstract electromagnetic radiation into tangible digital objects. Each token embodies the fundamental physics of light while existing as a unique cultural artifact on the Hedera blockchain.

The methodology employs algorithmic generation based on established wavelength-to-RGB conversion formulas, ensuring scientific accuracy while maintaining aesthetic coherence. The resulting palette spans from deep violet at 380nm through the full visible spectrum to deep red at 750nm, with each intermediate frequency precisely calculated and represented.

SPECTRUM challenges conventional boundaries between scientific documentation and artistic practice. It presents light not merely as a physical phenomenon but as a medium for digital art, questioning how we perceive, categorize, and assign value to the fundamental components of visual experience.

As blockchain technology enables new forms of digital ownership and provenance, this collection positions pure light frequencies as collectible entities, creating a bridge between the ephemeral nature of electromagnetic radiation and permanent digital artifacts.
