Bubble by Santiago

Bubble' is a dynamic, on-chain collection that calls attention to the objecthood of digital artworks by responding to market activity. Born in a binary state, each ‘Bubble’ is ‘inflated’ at mint, and designated a resiliency parameter. If the collector reaches the resiliency threshold, through trading before the parameter is met, the Bubble will explode! After that, the Bubble becomes ‘immortalized,’ irreversibly. Each token’s smart contract records its state (’inflated/immortalized’) on-chain, and displays a corresponding visual expression. Pulling on the tensions between ephemerality, permanence, and fragility, ‘Bubble’ both concretizes and questions the volatility of the market.
