Hacker extraordinaire Grimes is writing her first book for publication, and it’s going to live on the blockchain. Grimes describes the project as an “intergalactic children’s metaverse book,” as if any of those words make sense together.
The artist announced her book this week in a virtual appearance at the Avalanche Summit, a Web3-focused conference in Barcelona. The as-of-yet-untitled children’s book is part of the Avalanche Foundation’s $100 million “Culture Catalyst” initiative, which hopes to launch new cultural projects on the blockchain. Culture Catalyst is being launched via OP3N, a Web3 community platform.
