QUANTUM HEX MACHINA is about a now-lost digital artwork I deleted from every form of digital storage - including my own computer.

The only way to discover it (and for me to see it again) is to reconstruct the scrambled string and unlock it through an on-chain interactive portal, designed to verify and reveal the hidden piece.

The string was scrambled beyond the reach of today's technologies - like a locker of millions of gears. The artwork now rests in limbo, awaiting the arrival of quantum computing to be resurrected and seen again.

Not even I, its creator, can view it until that moment comes.

"A relic of the future" - like scattered ashes of a Phoenix awaiting rebirth.
