Could you call the image above electronic art?
I would agree that it is indeed made by an electronic device.
Read on further to find out how this imagery takes on a whole new concept in the digital world.

You may be wondering what the image above is about and who created this piece of work.
You will be amazed to know that an A.I. or artificial intelligence named Huxley (who collaborated with British music icon Duran Duran) created this image by dreaming it up in its mind!
Yes, you heard me right. Huxley can dream! Huxley is the only A.I. of its kind currently in the world. This achievement could not have been done without the music of Duran Duran. The music was inspired by the song, Invisible, which was released on Duran Duran’s brand new album, Future Past, on October 22, 2021.

Duran Duran announced their first official Nft Drop on December 16, 2021. This was quite an achievement on their part and quite unheard of to me. I have never heard of an NFT drop.
So What is an NFT drop?
An NFT drop is the release of a non-fungible token project. A drop refers to the exact date, time, and generally the minting price of the NFT. Many NFT drops have purchase limits that apply to the number of NFTs you are able to mint in one transaction. Purchasing at drop time is a great way to save money as well.

What is a NFT or Non-fungible Token you might ask:
An NFT, which stands for non-fungible token, is a unique unit of data employing technology that allows digital content—from videos to songs to images—to become logged and authenticated on cryptocurrency blockchains, primarily Ethereum. Once content is logged onto the blockchain, every transaction from transfers to sales is recorded on-chain, creating an easily accessible ledger of provenance and price history. The main impact of NFTs is making it easy to own and sell digital content. Previously, for example, digital artists could build up large followings on social media, attract freelance commercial work, and maybe sell prints and other merch with their designs, but they had trouble monetizing digital art directly, as consumers asked, Why should I buy what I can screenshot for free? artnews.com
