Akamai Launches First NFT Artwork Dynamically Fueled by the Internet
Akamai Technologies, Inc. unveiled the first Non-Fungible Token (NFT) artwork dynamically designed based on data drawn from the Akamai Intelligent Edge Platform; the NFT will visually evolve in real time as internet traffic changes and cyberattacks launch. Multidisciplinary artist and Associate Professor R. Luke DuBois was selected by Akamai to interpret its vast dataset. “Interpreting what the internet means to the world — the good and the bad, its enormous scale and its endless potential — was a challenge that immediately inspired me,” said DuBois.
