The Doppelgangers NFTs will use outtakes and manipulations of the original Twin Flames photographs.
Each of the 1,000 pieces has an algorithm that will add pixelated rectangles to transform the photos into more abstract art.
Pop Wonder 'This is Fine'
Pop Wonder, known for his iconic cartoon style, sold "This Is Fine" for 15 ETH on Tuesday through SuperRare.
Inscribed "The first time burns, but after a few dips it feels like home," the artwork might take inspiration from the recent bear market NFTs have experienced recently.
