The Soul Collection

The Soul Collection is a personalized NFT experience that captures your 'digital soul'. Users go thru an AI chatbot experience before being able to buy a personalized video portrait minted on the blockchain. AI chatbot speech is generated via the Charisma API. Chatbot visuals built with WebGL glitch effects on pre-rendered video clips that are synchronized to the audio. The NFT is a randomized glitch art video portrait created in WebGL from a webcam image.

I was hired by Jason Zada to build the site front-end and design and prototype the NFTs. I built a custom WebGL rendering engine that generates an MP4 video that is then minted on the blockchain via OpenSea.
