In order to function, allowing the joint work of thousands of people at the same time, the living artwork is made up of a grid of thousands of canvases. Each canvas is a limited 32×32 pixel workspace that can be drawn on to contribute to the overall theme or just for fun! The canvases have a feed, can receive likes, and people can subscribe to them among many other things.
In turn, the canvases are NFTs and are linked to an owner. This enables a marketplace where canvases can be safely monetized and traded!
