About
Winner is a limited edition project aiming to create an artwork that ties together its collectors. It's minted on ERC-721TL contract by Transient Labs and enables collectors stories as metadata.
During the project, each collector had the chance to contribute by minting their arcade-related nostalgic memory on-chain to the artwork. Those that did were eventually included in a metadata update, and became part of the artwork forever.
After then, I hosted a public raffle where I randomly chose one collector who'd win a custom arcade machine 1/1.
Four phases of Winner Programmed
I. Minting
Minting consisted of presale and public. Presale was ovcerallocated.
II. Collector Stories
All collectors were invited to share a nostalgic memory of what this artwork reminded them of.
I wanted to experience what their childhood might have been like, to understand them better.
III. Becoming the Art
A snapshot of the holders has been taken and I updated the metadata.
Every collector who inscribed a story became a part of the artwork.
IV. Win 1/1
After a public raffle, one lucky collectors would get a custom arcade machine 1/1.
It could've been a whack-a-mole, a basketball or an air-hockey. Choice were theirs.
Winner Programmed concluded in March 2025.
