Created by Iain Ball, 2021–2022, as part of the SETHIX QR-GRIDs series. Minted as a 1/1 NFT on Ethereum (contract: SETHIX-QR GRID #20 (2021–2022) is part of the 1-of-1 SETHIX QR-GRIDs series. These digital artworks explore encrypted systems, computational mysticism, and metaphysical control through dense, signal-like QR-grid structures. Each piece functions as an abstract interface — simultaneously a sacred diagram, surveillance device, and speculative ritual object. This work belongs to Iain Ball’s broader SETHIX mythos: a contemporary Gnostic system that stages a metaphysical conflict between divine sovereignty and synthetic assimilation. The SETHIX CONTROL SYSTEM — an alien+AI hybrid intelligence — emerges as a force seeking to overwrite organic evolution and subsume human agency within a coded, machinic order. Formally influenced by data structures, QR architecture, and techno-esoteric aesthetics, the series encodes a visual language that is not meant to be read linearly, but absorbed into the collective mind space.
