Thank you! I'm trying to use old net.art and conceptual art ideas to
help people think about smart contracts, and using smart contracts to
shake up old net.art and conceptual art ideas. There's a critique of
objecthood and property in each that I think can benefit from exposure
to (although almost certainly not agreement with) the other.

Yes it's evil actual running code. :-)

Web development takes at least 3 languages nowadays (usually 5+),
which is crazy. I show only the actual contract code to keep things
manageable.

Yes when making something that's meant to have the force of law (or
philosophy I guess for some of my contracts) it's important to get
things right. I'm very wary of the idea that smart contracts remove
human fallibility and corruptability from interactions, as the
contracts are ultimately written by people and any computer program
can have bugs in it.
