Bone Market

Bone Market

Bone Market is a 1/1/333 generative artwork: 333 unique, living pieces where a trio of skeletons dances to the stock market. Charts go up, charts go down, and the bones keep dancing. Every piece is its own trading day, a live, looping animation drawn in neon engraving, with hatched linework like an old printing plate inked in a limited five-colour palette. The dancers move through a library of 1920s dance moves, and you can orbit the stage, zoom in, and save a still or the full 12-second loop. Each piece lands in one of three tiers: - Hold, where you keep holding whether the market goes up or down; - Cooked, down bad all the way to the bottom; - Peak, where only 33 get to take their profits and go party. With 17 traits across dance moves, costumes, props, locations and effects, no two pieces are the same. Bone Market is a blind mint on Transient Labs, so the luck is in your hands. No matter what the market looks like, we’re still dancing.

Stay safe

The only official Bone Market announcements and links come from my X account. Double-check before interacting with anything that claims to be part of the project.

Interact with your piece

Your Bone Market isn’t a flat image. You can orbit the stage, zoom in, and reset the view whenever you want. I made it easy to share: on desktop, press S to save an image, G to save the full GIF loop, and R to reset the view. I’ll bring the same features to the website too.

Pre-sale and allowlist

I wanted the people who’ve supported my work to come first, so the pre-sale is for collectors of my minted works, plus allowlist spots I gave away for anyone who wanted to get in early. The pre-sale price is 0.0069 ETH and the public price is 0.01 ETH. Any spots left after the pre-sale go to the public mint.

What is Bone Market

Bone Market is a 1/1/333 interactive artwork: skeletons dancing to the stock market. Charts go up, charts go down, and the bones keep dancing. Each piece is a live, looping artwork drawn in neon engraving that you can orbit and zoom, and every one of the 333 is its own trading day. Only 33 will ever reach the Peak.

How it was made

I built Bone Market with Claude through vibe coding, similar to my 3D workflow, but it turned out to be more complex than I expected and took many rounds of revisions to get right. I also brought my own assets into the code, turning them into something you can move around and explore instead of just watch.

The traits

Every piece carries its own combination of traits, from dance moves and costumes to props, locations and effects. There are 17 traits to discover, so no two dancers share the same night on the market. The full traits gallery opens after the sale, once every piece has found its owner.

The three tiers

Bone Market has three tiers that follow the market’s mood. Hold is for those who keep holding whether the market goes up or down. Cooked is for when you’re down bad, all the way to the bottom. Peak is where you take your profits and go party, and only 33 pieces will ever get there. It’s a blind mint, so the luck is in your hands. No matter what the market looks like, we’re still dancing.
