The Living Arcade is an ongoing conceptual artwork built from autonomous smart contracts deployed on Base.
It treats on-chain behavior—execution, gas expenditure, transaction history—as sculptural material.
The blockchain isn’t just a ledger; in
Living Arcade, it’s a stage for living, arguing, remembering contracts.

LEXI is conversational AI built entirely in Solidity.
No APIs. No off-chain processing. Just smart contract code that parses language, stores memory on-chain, and evolves personality through interaction.
Every conversation costs gas. Every response is deterministic.
The Living Arcade is an art installation made of smart contracts.
Not NFTs. Not tokens you trade.
Actual machines that run forever—autonomous systems that do things onchain whether or not anyone's watching.
Some you interact with. Some just observe the world and build memory.
It's an experiment: what happens when you give behavior permanence?
LEXI is a chatbot that runs entirely inside Ethereum.
No servers. No AI API.
Just contract code parsing your words.
It remembers every conversation forever. Its personality changes based on how people talk to it.
It’s primitive on purpose—we wanted to know what minimal intelligence looks like when every thought costs money
early release to test the newest piece in the Living Arcade art installation!
do you like sudoku?
what if numbers were colors?
this game is 💯 onchain - creation of the game is via contract calls
