Glitch art goes viral
A curated glitch‑art drop from @nygi_xxv blew up on social with 78 likes, 14 reposts and 83 replies, signalling real community momentum for glitch aesthetics (x.com). The thread is acting like a mini‑market for glitch pieces and short drops—good spot to scout emerging digital‑visual names (x.com).
Ancurated positions itself as a curator focused on empowering Black creators and “preserving culture onchain,” a stated mission visible on its site. (ancurated.xyz) The artist behind the drop, Nygilia McClain (known online as Nygi / @nygi_xxv), works in mixed media and VR and presented live Open‑Brush VR painting at NFT Paris as recently as last year. (shadowsbook.xyz) Nygi’s previous open‑edition work “Lucky Bunny” recorded 30,000 mints within its first 24 hours on a MegaETH/testnet release, with an initial mint price reported at 0.004 ETH. (outposts.io) Her drops have been hosted across multiple niche marketplaces—Lucky Bunny appeared on RaribleFUN, and a separate collection, “Twilight Relics,” was listed on Buildtree as a 10‑edition drop priced at 0.01 ETH. (outposts.io) Ancurated maintains an on‑chain presence (including a Rarible profile) and publishes short promotional posts about creators, a setup that has been used to surface and amplify individual drops.
