EDEN Stories is a telematic narrative in several seasons, published online, by episodes, in the form of NFT (tokenized editions). The work also takes the form of installations that can include one or more Minitels (tangible editions).
___
First season (3615 Gleeden)
During the first season, Eden is looking for a man on a Minitel dating service. She gradually discovers that she is in fact an NFT character, evolving between two worlds, that of Minitel and that of blockchains.
The tokenized edition of the first season, which was published on the Tezos blockchain in December 2021, is composed of a series of PNGs and GIFs created from the Videotex (.VDT) format used from 1980 to 2012 for the French Minitel (a telematic network with computer terminals).

Tangible edition of the first season (3615 Gleeden) for POEM SUBJKT
The tangible edition realized for the exhibition POEM SUBJKT is presented in the form of an installation consisting of two Minitels placed back to back. Each Minitel contains the exchanges of Eden and his interlocutors. These exchanges are published in NFTs on the platform Objkt.com.
The other Minitel contains the exchange EDENStories.Jared_2.
