ETH Node, by @larvalabs , 2026 What do you see? A cube covered on all sides with grids of pixels. Patterns form across the surface as it emits a cool blue glow. How was it made? The piece runs on a live connection to the Ethereum blockchain. An Ethereum node continuously listens for new blocks as they are produced (roughly every 12 seconds), pulling the block’s transaction data to drive a real-time animation. Gradations of blue moving toward white indicate the cost of each transaction, reflecting either its computational complexity or the gas price set by the sender. On the occasion where a CryptoPunks transaction is mined, the LEDs are color-coded to the type of transaction. The effects of the transaction are then transmitted across the NODE space as it faithfully documents the living, decentralized art project that is the CryptoPunks. This work, currently on display at @nodefnd, is adaptable. In future exhibitions, the Ethereum node can be configured to respond to other artists’ smart contracts, allowing the piece to evolve with the space.
