SKELTER | GRAPHIC NOVEL & NFT COLLECTION
In a classical dance class, a dancer shatters a mirror and opens a portal: a bloody possession, a journey to work, an office, the machines, her and the machines, alienation and awareness, a primordial explosion, assumption and light, a return to the land of this present underworld as a robot, a goddess, a salvation, or a new being. An infinite, spiral journey like a continuous helter-skelter.
When I get to the bottom, I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
Till I get to the bottom and I see you again
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer

NFT COLLECTION
The NFT collection consists of 100 pieces, based on real photographs taken from the work La Danza Rota by Ailo. These photographs were used to create maps, which were then processed using image-generating models of open-source code (Stable Diffusion), followed by mixed media techniques in digital art to seek an illustration representation in anime style. The images at the end of the story were created from photographs taken by Ailo on the street and collages she created. The texts, if any, are original writings by Ailo. The promotional music is a version of Helter Skelter by The Beatles, which did not make it into the final remaster.
The NFTs are uploaded to the SKELTER ERC-1155 contract on the Ethereum network, under the account ailo.eth, in edition format, sometimes animated and sometimes static images.
GRAPHIC NOVEL
The graphic novel was created and designed alongside the NFT collection. It has not yet been published by any publisher. The project aims to release the publication by the end of 2025.
