What is Replisome Protocol?
Replisome Protocol is a media lego infrastructure that aims to empower creators to create composable contents with programmable copyright. Collectors are allowed to copy legos for further creation, and owners are entitled to monetize their artworks in the community by innovative business model.
Why build Replisome.xyz?
I was inspired by Loot, which many derivative projects are built on top of. The way digital cultures take shape without permission is fascinating. A lot of creativities was emerged. I start experimenting the idea of media lego, whose content is composable for any protocols or application without sacrificing its provenance, ownership. Media lego may flourish potentially our digital culture. In the end, I think we may need to a protocol that empowers creators to create more derivative works with their audience.
How does it work?
There are four concepts in this protocol.
Metadata
Your content is processed and stored in metadata contract, which ensure your content is absolutely unique and can be used by others. RasterMetadata is the only working type in the beta version. we will develop more metadata types(e.g. music, animation, voxel) you can imagine on this protocol.
Ruleset
This is the place you setup permission and royalty for your creation. Ruleset is linked to Copyright. There are two type of ruleset: upgradable and unupgradable. Upgradable ruleset give you flexibility because you may want to change policy or licence in the future. Unupgradable ruleset makes your artwork trustless. CC0 preset is an unupgradable ruleset that allow anyone to copy it for free.
Copyright
Copyright is an ERC721 contract representing the underlying concept and right for the artwork. Metadata and Ruleset linked to Copyright. The owner have the right to change its ruleset, and have potential to build new programmable economic model for the artwork
Artwork
Artwork is an ERC1155 contract representing the instance of the artwork. Its tokenId is same as copyright. It can be reproduced and used just like physical product.
How can you use this dapp?
- On /about page, you can learn this protocol before official documents are released.
- On /explore page, you can browse all artwork created on Replisome.xyz protocol, and go to /artworks/{id}.
- On /artworks/{id} page, you can see informations about this specific artwork, including metadata, provenances, derivatives. And the most important thing is to copy it if you like it or get inspired.
- On /painter/draw page, you can create an unique pixelated artwork using provided tools and artwork you've copied before.
- On /painter/enact/painter/enact page, you can configure permissions and royalty settings. In beta version, we only provide CC0 preset, but that is not limitation. We will develop more rulesets in the future.
- /painter/mint page is the last step to create unique and composable artwork. After you finish all transactions, you will get copyright and artworks of your creation.
