Compas is a collection of 10,000 pixel characters on Ethereum. Each is drawn on a small grid against a flat colour field, with its own headwear, body, mouth and extras. Their metadata describes them as «lightweight onchain pollinator companions for the Exquisite Hive».
Items appeared on OpenSea in July 2026.
Exquisite is a collection of on-chain agents. Compas is its counterpart: a companion for each agent and a smaller character to collect on its own.
The pairing is read-only. A holder can bind a Compa to an Exquisite agent as a companion, and every Compa has a public passport page. The work treats a character both as an image and as an identity that can be looked up.
Every Compa is generated from its token number. The image is a small SVG, 128 by 128 units, built from layered parts; the colours of each piece are defined as variables in the file itself. OpenSea lists the metadata as fully on-chain.
The same renderer serves the gallery on the Exquisite site, where the first 240 can be browsed in a single wall.
Pixel art as SVG, generated and stored on Ethereum, ERC-721. Because the drawing is vector code, it scales cleanly to any size and keeps its hard edges.
Each Compa also exposes a machine-readable agent card, so the character can be read by software as well as seen.
