/ About the project

Echoes is Mikasa's on-chain visitors’ book: every signature is etched forever in Ethereum’s ledger.


An SVG image is generated entirely inside the EVM each time the work is viewed, so the handwriting of friends, family, and mentors appears in real time, woven permanently into Mikasa's personal history.

Each autograph lives natively on chain; the NFT is only a lens that lets anyone leaf through the pages.

A custom contract by Mikasa grants one carefully chosen address at a time the right to sign, keeping the record deliberate and orderly.


These pages are never for sale, they are time-stamped mementos of friendship and life.

Mikasa opens the book with the palindrome “echoes echo echoes.”

The line can repeat endlessly without losing sense, as it is itself, an echo:


echoes echo echoes echo echoes…


The title (Echoes) also nods to the Unix command echo, which prints whatever follows to the screen.

Here, the book is a blockchain-native version of that command, letting every signer make their words echo for eternity on the Blockchain.
