the unfinished is still unfinished.
you decide
The renderer below is waiting for its final parameters. Two are still open — how many sketchbooks exist, and what a page costs — and the drawing reacts to every hand on the dials: yours the moment you choose, everybody else’s as the tally moves. A vote in pencil is instant and moveable. A vote in ink is a post that exists in public, and it is the count.
no. 3174 — the piece the current consensus is choosing. it redraws when the room changes its mind, and it gets more finished as more of you decide. it never gets all the way.
CURRENT PARAMETERS
3,333 / 5,555 / 7,777 / 10,000 above; accessible / balanced / conviction below. faint strokes are pencils, full-pressure strokes are ink. the bars are as finished as the vote is.
vote 01 — supply
how many sketchbooks did the artist fill? every token is one page of an 83-page sketchbook — turn a page’s corner and the book stamp on the back says which — so the supply is a shelf: 3,333 pages is forty books, 10,000 is the full hundred and twenty.
and the shelf already owes a debt: 2,032 guaranteed spots are out in the world — counted live off the list, so this number moves as spots are granted — whatever the room votes. every card below says what one of those spots is worth at that size, and — the number that matters more — how many pages are left open for everyone who finds this project after the list closed.
one mint per guaranteed spot, and not much book after the list.
a more concentrated collection with fewer total outputs.
enough room for serious variety while keeping the collection contained.
the collection as calibrated - and the widest open door.
vote 02 — mint structure
not three prices — a philosophy. gtd / fcfs / public, in dollars, and what each one does to who ends up holding. the drawing loosens as the door opens and tightens as conviction rises.
reward the earliest believers heavily and keep the barrier as low as it goes.
early supporters keep a major advantage while the mint stays accessible.
more commitment at every stage, with a smaller gap between early and public.
something missing?
propose another supply or structure. one per device, replacing your own is allowed, and a person reads every one before anything appears here — text from strangers goes through a human first.
