Quine by Larva Labs

Quine by Larva Labs is the final Art Blocks Curated release ever, a conceptual exploration of code that outputs its own source code. Project Details Artists: Matt Hall & John Watkinson (Larva Labs) Collection: Art Blocks #497 (final Curated release in history) Edition: 497 pieces Mint: October 9-10, 2025 Concept: Programs that generate themselves The Concept In computer science, a "quine" is a program that produces its own source code as output. Larva Labs brings this meta-programming concept to generative art - each piece displays both a visual graphic and the JavaScript code that creates it. Copy the visible code, paste it elsewhere, run it - and watch it regenerate the artwork. Code becomes both medium and message. Significance Larva Labs, creators of CryptoPunks, close the Curated era with a work that returns to generative art's conceptual roots: code as the fundamental creative act.
