Learn Cosmic Signature
Explore how Cosmic Signature works, from your first gesture to the three-body physics behind each artwork. These guides explain Performance Cycles, protocol rules, and the records you can inspect on Arbitrum.
Cycle 1
Start here
Four guides on what the protocol is, how a cycle runs, what a gesture does and where the art comes from.
What the protocol is
Procedural art on Arbitrum, shaped by the gestures of each Performance Cycle.The Performance Cycle
How a cycle opens, runs on its clock, finalizes and allocates its reserve.How gestures work
What an ETH or CST gesture costs, what it records and how it extends the clock.Three-body art
How an on-chain seed and three-body physics give the same artwork every time.

A Procedural On-Chain Art Protocol on Arbitrum

Cycle 0
How it runs
The chain it runs on, its contracts, CST and the Cosmic Council, and anchoring.
Built on Arbitrum
Why the protocol runs on Arbitrum, an Ethereum Layer 2 network.Contracts and verification
Where to find the contracts and source code, and how to verify them yourself.CST and the Cosmic Council
What CST is, how it is imprinted and how holders coordinate the protocol.Anchoring NFTs
How anchored NFTs share each cycle’s Anchor Distribution, and how release works.
Context
Public Goods, where the art is collected and traded, and what the protocol is not.
Think you know the protocol?
One hundred questions in three tiers, based on the white paper. Every answer explains the rule behind it and points to the section that settles it.
