Born in Budapest some years before the fall of the iron curtain, Daïm Aggott-Hönsch spent his formative years in Szentendre and studied the visual arts as a child under a renowned artist and educator, the late Jenő Zaszlavik. 

After his family's immigration to Canada in the 90s, he spent some years in Oakville, before settling in Toronto. Daïm began his mathematical and algorithmic explorations in the early 2010s, becoming an emerging artist in 2016. 

In 2019, Daïm joined the burgeoning cryptoart community, shifting his efforts from producing archival prints to issuing natively digital non-fungible tokens (NFT) of his increasingly varied static and dynamic works. Daïm's innovative slow artwork "Ancestral Memories" was a short-listed NFT Awards 2020 nominee and his generative Cryptoblots project was one of the series featured in Sotheby's 2021 Natively Digital auction's Art Blocks lot.  

His digital works form a part of a number of high-profile collections, including but not limited to Vignesh Sundaresan a.k.a. Metakovan, Pablo Rodriguez-Fraile of Lot 555, and Colborn Bell of the Museum of Crypto Art (MoCA).

The Center for Complex Network Research (CCNR) at Northeastern University, known as the BarabásiLab, which Albert-László Barabási established in 2007, is a thirty-person lab dedicated to a deeper understanding of networks—how they emerge and evolve, what they look like, and how they impact our understanding of complex systems. CCNR’s research spans a wide range of subjects, from protein interactions within a cell to how distant galaxies interact in the cosmic web to what blend of access and performance leads to success in art.

The lab consists of postdoctoral researchers and students who are working toward their PhDs. They are physicists, computer scientists, neuroscientists, designers–even art historians. In addition to his theoretical breakthroughs in network science, Barabási and his lab are renowned for producing highly creative visualizations that depict the research findings in 2-D and 3-D models. Examples of BarabásiLab’s visualizations have been shown before at the Serpentine Gallery in London and the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in New York City, and is the subject of a solo show  BarabásiLab: Hidden Patterns. at the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, and at ZKM in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Gergő Sós is a Hungarian artist, living in Veszprém, Hungary, where he teaches applied graphic. Gergő’s favorite concept is minimalism, which emerges both in his music and visual art as he constantly strives for simplicity.

The love of nature inspired him to create the fusion of monochrome visual art and drone music. In his Monoton/Monokrom project the visual representation of the terrain is transformed into audio with the help of drone music. As he lives in Veszprém, Gergő’s main inspiration is the landscape of Bakony, however he is also amused by the plain, which was the main element of his project with Kodály Filharmónia in Debrecen.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

This is a very long description.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
