To coincide with the publication of Genesis: #000-051, BottoDAO has produced 25 unique 1/1 special editions, each pairing a custom cover variant with an accompanying 1/1 print. The Genesis Period was Botto’s formative first year, an experiment in autonomous creation, collective governance, and token economies that constituted a decentralized autonomous artist. This book is a document of this critical first period of Botto as both an AI artist and as a novel architecture made up of social, technological, and economic building blocks.
