NAME:
CYPHERPUNK MAILING LIST PUZZLE

CONTEXT:

Earlier this year, @bysmashtoshi invited me to create artwork for a book documenting the history of #Bitcoin. 
I worked the Cypherpunks Mailing List theme into a 196 piece puzzle. 70 x 70 cm / 27.55 x 27.55 Inch.

Sketching the cypherpunks mailing list, a melting pot of crypto innovation, the perfect breeding ground for Bitcoin. Looking at the history, all fits together like pieces of a puzzle, but there's a catch, where is Satoshi Nakamoto? How come his name isn't on the list?

Developing each part of the collage using artificial intelligence, the portraits using PincelApp and the objects using Dall-E. All images are humanised by analog errors caused when Gelli printing.

I will be screen printing the puzzle in a limited edition of 21 sets packed in boxes, sealed in a plastic sleeve, each with a QR linked to a certificate of authenticity containing a high quality photo of the assembled puzzle, numbered and signed.
So you can peek inside the box without opening it, hodl the value for future generations, but if you prefer to play, I urge you to open it!
