The Strip is the SPACEBOY story told as an original comic. Eight inked frames run the origin arc and Project Genesis, a collaboration through the COACT co-lab pathway. The artwork is strictly monochrome apart from the hair, which shifts from red to violet across the run - after which violet becomes the ongoing tertiary accent of the ecosystem.
“Some things are drawn before they are built. Some are drawn while they are being built.”
The comic strip is the story layer of the bench - the same frameworks in The Drawings, told in frames instead of sheets. Project Genesis is the first venture being drawn live, running through COACT's current COLAB pathway.
COLOUR RULE / STRIP 01
Every frame is monochrome. The only colour in the strip is SPACEBOY's hair, running red through to violet. Once it lands on violet it stays violet - and violet carries on as the tertiary mark from that frame forward.
STRIP 01
The opening run. Every frame is drawn in pure black and white with one exception - the hair. It burns red at frame one and shifts through the spectrum until it lands on violet.
GENESIS
The frames drawn while the venture is being built. The hair has already landed on violet, so violet stays - it becomes the tertiary mark carried from here on. Project Genesis runs through the COACT COLAB pathway - SPACEBOY draws the story and the frameworks, COACT Studio delivers the build.
The artwork and narrative are original works of SPACEBOY INNOVATION HUB (PTY) LTD, protected from the moment of fixation under the Copyright Act 98 of 1978 (Republic of South Africa). The venture itself is a collaboration delivered through the COACT COLAB pathway - no equity or IP holding is claimed here.
The strip keeps running. New frames land as the venture is drawn. If you want to be in one, or need a human to walk it with you:
