The whole Ethereum network works as a co-creator of this piece. Blocks are being mined every few seconds. Each one is just a long row of digits, abstract and indistinguishable to the human mind. But combined, they are making possible the operation of the world's largest distributed computer. This piece helps to visualize the ever-evolving state of the Ethereum network and celebrates individual blocks forming the backbone of the network. The number of the latest block mined at the moment of creating this work defines its pattern. The first 64 shapes store the hash number, and the miner address sets the seed for the underlying dot pattern.
