It can be easy to forget how vast the universe is and how many potentialities there are for each of us. Only in rare moments when we fully open our hearts do we have the chance to experience this flood of awareness. In these moments, we realize that there is only *one edition* of life, and that we are all a part of it.

This algorithm behind this piece can create an infinite range of oscillating energy fields, yet it is constrained to a *single snapshot* created by the first observer to mint the work. It is a reminder that, despite our daily struggles and the sense of isolation that can come with them, we are always united by a constant flow of energy. Despite the single edition of our lives that we've come to know, we are so much more.
