Join our inaugural liveminting event, where you'll see the live creation of unique NFTs for Stephen Wolfram's picks of cellular automata from the computational universe. Mint your own NFT in the Wolfram Language using the Wolfram Function Repository function MintNFT: https://resources.wolframcloud.com/FunctionRepository/resources/MintNFT/ Liveminting NFTs with the Wolfram Language on the Cardano Blockchain: https://blog.wolfram.com/2021/07/21/liveminting-nfts-with-the-wolfram-language-on-the-cardano-blockchain/ Visit the liveminting website: https://liveminting.com/ Register for NFT giveaway: https://liveminting.com/register-nft-giveaway/ Learn more about cellular automata: https://www.wolframscience.com/ Chapters 0:00 Stream starts 0:40 Stephen gives an introduction 46:49 Stephen starts investigating the CAs 51:56 Liveminting begins 2:59:43 Q&A section 2:59:51 Do we have enough storage space to store the blockchain? 3:01:33 Do you have an opinion on the Chia "proof-of-storage" network, or more generally on the blockchain sustainability discussion? 3:04:30 When talking about data-storage for over 100+ years, which way would that be done? On hardware(in a Faraday cage)?, in a cloud? or by other means? 3:10:05 How is the 'memoires' example possible? How can the blockchain guarantee it can only be decrypted at a future time?! 3:11:02 ​Have you tried using a genetic algorithm for picking CA art pictures? For example generating iterative mutations with a human selecting the seed picture in each step. 3:12:42 Is there a marketplace to put this on sale now? Where is the contract for these NFTs? As I understand there is no marketplace yet, but functionality is already there, right? 3:12:53 Is there a way to make these "live" NFTs such that they continue to grow over time? 3:13:31 Do these store a PNG version or PDF version or the code to make it? 3:13:57 Is this minting code on GitHub or the function repository? 3:15:15 A question does irreducible also mean the complexity bigger "at each" step. Or can a computation that totally irreducible always have same complexity for each step? 3:17:06 Would you tell us about the limits of this rendering, namely why they are all "pyramid" like and what other way they could be calculated? 3:18:00 What are the gas fees to buy one of the nfts you just made? 3:19:11 Would there be anything interesting about cellular automata that used more than one start point? What if each start point was its own thread of rules? 3:21:15 ​Is it possible to make a reversible CA to get some initial condition of a compressed program? 3:25:38 ​Was there a reason that you chose the Cardano chain?
