The 4th Dimension of art experience by SOLANA Ecosystem
The Metaverse of Art with Solana Labs and Metaplex
Solana Labs and Metaplex act as ecosystem partners to help solve the biggest NFT hurdles. Solana Labs will host a series of education activities, art-talks and provide mentorship to introduce the participant to the NFT experience on Solana and the products being built across the ecosystem. Next to the general Solana track, All-Art protocol and Neon Labs provide two exciting sub challenges which inspire artists and developers to explore the 4th dimension of art experience.About Solana
Solana is the most performant blockchain in the world. It gives developers the confidence to build for the long term by delivering predictable scaling without compromising security or composability. Solana’s performance is driven by intra-shard parallelism, which is capable of processing thousands of smart contracts at once, and by Proof of History, an innovation in distributed timekeeping that unlocks low-latency, sub-second finality across the global state. To learn more, please visit https://solana.com/.Founded by former Qualcomm, Intel, and Dropbox engineers in late-2017, Solana is a single-chain, Proof-of-Stake protocol whose focus is on delivering scalability without sacrificing decentralization or security. Solana can currently handle 50,000 TPS with single transaction costs as low as $0.00001.
Co-exploration of art with the Solana ecosystem
How to interact with your fanbase in a digital museum or showroom?
How to create a Dynamic Showroom experience for Artists?Jury & Mentor: Tamar Menteshashvili (Solana Ecosystem Growth)
Prize: 2’000 USD Cash and 6’000 USD worth of Cloud Storage offered by Switzerland based PHOENIX SYSTEMS AG
Solana Sub-Challenge: VR-ALL-ART / ALL-ART
How would you (as an artist/developer) use the VR-All-Art platform and Solana to interact with your community while you work on your oeuvre? Can the platform enable collaborative art or can the community buy during the generation of the art work?
Prize: 2’000 USD Cash + 6’000 USD worth of Cloud Storage*
*offered by Switzerland based PHOENIX SYSTEMS AG.
Solana Sub-Challenge: Neon Labs
The growth in popularity of blockchain-based culture has lowered entry barriers to an otherwise very complex technology, making the benefits of decentralization more accessible for a wider audience. This has awakened an entirely new generation of leaders, introduced artist-centric business models, spurred artistic innovation, and expanded the design space for blockchains beyond finance.
Challenge:
The Neon sub-challenge is about continuing to reach new audiences through artistic expression of the Solana blockchain itself. This may be generative art in visual and/or audible form using Solana block/transaction data, or something entirely novel. In addition, artists and developers are encouraged to explore various formats for displaying this work. This could be in 2D or 3D space, embedded in a metaverse, or interact with the physical world; we welcome any number of creative possibilities.Jury & Mentor: James Ikeguchi

Open Innovation around Art and Music by Persistence
About Persistence One
Persistence is a multi-asset protocol focused on Liquid Staking (pSTAKE), NFTs (Asset Mantle) and Commodities (Comdex). Persistence ecosystem products are designed to stimulate global liquidity and enable seamless value exchange.Persistence’s Core mainnet is a Proof-of-Stake chain powered by Tendermint BFT consensus engine. Persistence’s multi-chain tech stack (currently supporting Cosmos, Ethereum and other Tendermint-based chains) abstracts away the complexities for developers and enables them to create DEXs, marketplaces, lending/borrowing platforms etc.
Challenge:
Open Innovation around Art and Music by Persistence
Major challenges of the NFT marketplace today are represented by:- Entry barriers such as acquiring crypto to pay for gas (rate on-ramps for first time users)
- Data Persistence: The security and privacy of the assets being minted as NFTs
- Interoperability: Exchange of asset cross-chain and cross-platform
- Limited support for asset creation: NFT market majorly only focused on art and collectibles use-cases
In this context, we invite you to design an NFT platform that deals with these issues. Here are the inputs for our challenge:
Build a solution to create customised auction and selling mechanism for the Music NFTs. Additional points for the team that works on fractionalisation of Music NFTs using the interNFT module.
Build a mechanism to transfer the Ethereum NFTs such as Cryptopunks, Meebits, Sandbox Collectibles, Bored Ape Yacht club into Cosmos ecosystem using Persistence SDK.
Build a lending borrowing platform for NFTs (similar to AAVE for fungible tokens) allowing to use the NFTs as collateral to borrow stablecoins/ETH.
Mentors & Judges: Tushar Aggarwal (CEO), Abhitej Singh (Biz Dev)
Prize: The winner will receive USD 50’000 worth of bounty.
Note: Only projects with full implementation will be considered for the bounty/prize.
What is an NFT?
Non-fungible tokens (NFT) are tokens that we can use to represent ownership of unique items. They let us tokenize things like art, collectibles, even real estate. They can only have one official owner at a time, and they’re secured by the Ethereum blockchain – no one can modify the record of ownership or copy-paste a new NFT into existence.
NFTs are currently taking the digital art and collectibles world by storm. Digital artists are seeing their lives change thanks to huge sales to a new crypto-audience. And celebrities are joining in as they spot a new opportunity to connect with fans. But digital art is only one way to use NFTs. Really, they can be used to represent ownership of any unique asset, like a deed for an item in the digital or physical realm.
NFT and the blockchain may create a second renaissance as we have seen it some hundert years ago.
The #hackARThon is listed in the Art Basel VIP program and hosted by art-st-urban.

art-st-urban
art-st-urban is a unique art – & cultural platform for art exhibitions, art education, art & music festivals, and art funding, the “Young Artist in Residence Programs “ (artists and musicians).
art-st-urban was founded by Heinz and Gertrud Aeschlimann 2005 as a private art and cultural institution which include the art center and museum art-st-urban, the sculpture park art-st-urban and the Young Artist in Residence funding program, embedded in the magnificent surroundings of former Abbey St. Urban, in the countryside of Canton Lucerne.
Their concept leads to a metamorphosis between contemporary art and the impressive history of the landmark – in harmony with business, science, medicine, music and technology and thus tie in with the philosophy of the over 900 year old culture of the Cistercian monks.
