Live Events
On the occasion of Berlin Science Week, LAS Art Foundation presented terra0: Autonomous Forest, a multifaceted artwork that rethinks land ownership through blockchain-based governance. Opening the project was a series of in-person discussions that took place 6, 7 and 8 November. These are followed by an NFT sale, which enables holders of cryptocurrency worldwide to acquire both an artwork and a place in the DAO that stewards the forest together through the non-profit organisation, or Verein.

At the heart of the Autonomous Forest system is a custom smart contract, the piece of code deployed on the Ethereum blockchain that defines how tokens behave. This contract is designed with a double function: on one side, it issues the NFTs that represent visual artworks, on the other, it governs how those NFTs can be staked to unlock membership and voting rights.
Each NFT in Autonomous Forest corresponds to a specific parcel of purchased forest, mapped through a custom geohash grid that links physical land directly to the Ethereum blockchain. Each grid cell covers an area roughly 9.54 × 12.38 metres making the NFT not just a digital token but a direct index to a tangible, measurable piece of land.
The NFTs in Autonomous Forest can be staked to acquire voting rights within the association’s Community Council (DAO). Staked NFTs become non-transferable, separating governance from market speculation, while unstaked NFTs remain freely tradable. This means that owning governance tokens is legally equivalent to membership in the Community Council.
