About

New York is a galaxy of light, with stories scattered like stars across the dark expanse of the city. WINDOWS is an immersion into this interconnected world, where individuality breaks through the rigidity of the grid and humanity comes alive like a biological circuit board.

The CITY is the culmination of it all: a dynamic, living metropolis realized as a 1/1 artwork that we invite you to help build and experience alongside us.

Threaded through all three levels is a bespoke communications system: an onchain network of connection that turns these works into the seeds of many stories. How those stories unfold is up to us, and you may have more influence than you think.
