## Intro
DMT-Chaos is a project showcasing the UNAT (Unique Non-Arbitrary Token) Standard.\
A new method of constructing generative art using the raw elements of data found within the Bitcoin Blockchain. \
\
Chaos uses the [DMT/NAT/UNAT](https://digital-matter-theory.gitbook.io/digital-matter-theory/introduction/digital-matter-theory) framework, which is built on top of the Tap Protocol.\
The creative blueprint is dictated by the Nonce value assigned to each block of Bitcoin. \
Nonce, is a random number that bitcoin miners identify in order to mine a new block. \
Essentially the nonce is a random number generator that is governed by the blockchain itself. \
\
The art engine and trait layers are inscribed immutably on Bitcoin, allowing the collection to continue producing itself into future generations.
## Chaos Framework
### The Nonce Field
The DMT-Chaos project is proud to be the **first** project to leverage the Nonce field of Bitcoin as the basis for generating its art. \
\
A nonce is 32 bits long, and roughly tops out around 4.3 billion. \
\
The number is completely random in its output will only be used once, ever. \
Adding a new layer of non-arbitrary substrate to the already non-arbitrary asset.
## Chaos Genesis
### gib.618.11.Element
\
DMT is also responsible for determining how many chaos tokens exist and which block qualify to reference the nonce in its art generation. Coming into being by way of the gib.618.11.element, \
which identifies the pattern 618 within the bit field. \
\
There are currently 4 periods in which chaos exists and are found within the following block-height ranges:\
\
336672-338687 \
437472-439487 \
538272-540287 \
667296-669311\
\
Resulting in a current total supply of 8064 Chaos tokens.\
\
The 618 pattern is expected to occur again in the future and each time it does, it will yield a fresh batch of 2016 tokens and art pieces. To give a rough estimate based on historical data, the 618 pattern occurs on average once every 3.75 years. This is not to say it cant happen next week or 10 years from now.
### A Living Digital Organism?
DMT chaos demonstrates many attributes that would define a living organism: \
\
Self organization and construction - (Recursive coding)\
The ability to reproduce, grow, develop, and adapt - (DMT)\
Homeostasis - (Nonce Value/Law of Averages)\
Energy use and consumption - (Bitcoin PoW)\
Responsive to its environment - (Bitcoin Block Data)
