How a pixelmix is made...

Creating a pixelmix is a done through a series of steps run on the pixelmix servers, daily.

1
Every evening at 01:00 UTC, an internal job kicks off to start the process.
2
We look at all the tokens and the address holding at the time of job kick-off.  This nightly snapshot updates an internal record that will be used for the daily run.
3
We download and store the metadata for each NFT token in a holder's address.
4
Using the NFT metadata, we download/update and store the image for each NFT.
5
In order to create the pixelmix image, we analyze each of the stored images for its color composition and generate a corresponding pixelmix tile.  Then we assemble the individual tiles into the larger pixelmix mosaic.
6
Once we have the full mosaic pixelmix image, we update the metadata for the pixelmix NFT in the holder's wallet.  Where possible, we will force a metadata refresh.
7
Your pixelmix has been (re)generated for the day! We repeat this process daily so you can have a new piece piece of generative art every day!
