Lifeforms are NFT-based entities.
Like any living thing, lifeforms need regular care in order to thrive.
If not properly looked after, lifeforms die.
A lifeform that has died will
no longer appear in wallets, is not transferable, and cannot be brought
back to life in any way. How do you care for a lifeform?
Within 90 days
of receiving it, you must give it away.
Lifeforms are open for public creation. The amount of lifeforms that can be created is uncapped. After lifeforms has been
open for some time, this page will include population and life expectancy data. For the moment, this information is unknown.
Lifeforms run on polygon, a proof of stake network with a low
ecological footprint. Currently, lifeform creation costs ~10 MATIC.
Lifeforms was created by Sarah Friend, and you can direct questions, comments, and bug reports to her.
The project launches also with many thanks to Simon Denny and Bettina Steinbrügge for providing a
physical installation context for the first lifeforms at the Kunstverein in Hamburg, and for undertaking their
foster care. To Dre Roelandt, for their patient help fabricating the silicone bodies for the first three lifeforms. And
to Marie Claire LeBlanc Flanagan: the seed of this project
was planted during conversations with them while they were working on their
project Common, an experimental video game about decentralized networks of care and
community trust
