Enclave passport NFTs and their origin

(edited)
This is a click-baiting essay.

enclave bookstore

Anyone who cares about our webmaster @张杰平 knows that he has taken over a bookstore. I wanted to go to its predecessor "Dianguangyingli Bookstore", but unfortunately it was closed at that time. Later, after the "Mind Bookstore" was closed within two years, Zhang Jieping finally decided within two days that the store would be reborn as "Enclave Nowhere".

About the story of this bookstore, I won't go into details, you can refer to:

enclave nowhere

I really like the description of this "enclave":

It is the projection of those whose past has been lost, and whose future has not yet arrived, in the here and now.
It is an adventurer's imagination, a time and space that does not exist, a utopia for marginalized people.
In the homeland, there is always an enclave. It is in an enclave that has been entangled with the native land.
is no where. is now here.

I went to the enclave bookstore alone, one of which was to catch a glimpse of the legendary Whole Earth Catalog, which Steve Jobs introduced at the end of his famous 2005 Stanford speech , quoting the phrase: "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. ".

But I did not dare to read too much, for fear of damaging the old pages, so I mainly read The Millennium Whole Earth Catalog (1994), which is protected by a book cover. This is a "tool guide", similar to a book review magazine, in which topics are chosen to reflect the areas the editors valued at the time. At the end of "Editor's Words":

It's becoming obvious that many of the most vexing problems we face these days have come about because otherwise intelligent people have not thought about what they are doing in a comprehensive way. There are “unexpected side effects” — a polite way of saying that someone literally didn't know what they were doing.

For example, he criticized at that time "the engineer who made the refrigerator only wanted to preserve the food, but did not expect the ozone layer (which would be destroyed by the refrigerant)", and believed that the reason was education:

They lacked a comprehensive education… Comprehensive is different than general. Generalists attempt to know a bit about every subject. Focus is not necessarily implied, nor is attention to interactions. Comprehensive thought requires focused widespread knowledge plus study of connections and patterns. It is not commonly taught. Overspecialized education is the problem.

Today, the problems faced by human beings have changed a lot, but they are still facing a similar dilemma.

"Enclave" is also a geographical academic term: "A country is located in the territory of another country", the source and related articles can refer to @李易安's :

In addition, "enclave" is often used to refer to "specific isolation area" in the field of information. For example, "Secure Enclave" is a specific area used by Apple to securely store fingerprint or facial recognition data, from the processing of daily operations. The core of the device is completely isolated.

In Matters Lab Discord 's online learning session "0429: How to Build Indestructible Decentralized Rich Applications?" ( YouTube video , only for Travellogger holders to watch, requires Discord certification and filling in the form), once mentioned a Analogy: "Enclave as an autonomous region in a computer".

From these perspectives, it may be said that Web3 is an "enclave" of Web1. After all, Web3 inherits the vision of Web1's pursuit of "decentralization", which can be described as a renaissance ( reference material ), while Web3 DAO is more like an enclave Autonomous organization.

Enclave Passport NFT @ Tezos

I mentioned earlier that I went to the enclave bookstore, and the second is to apply for an enclave passport ( Facebook introduction ). As the first enclave member, you can get an airdrop of NFT on the Tezos chain.

After talking so much, is it finally time to mention the enclave member NFT? This is not the case. The previous big talk is the meaning that this enclave member NFT brings to me. This is a common feature of NFTs on the Tezos chain, focusing more on artistry, ideas, and even connecting with the real world.

The latter is a bit like POAP.xyz (see Xu Mingen's introduction ), but it is a bit strange in the high-value transaction and heavy-investment Ethereum system, but such on-site attributes seem quite natural in the Tezos world, you can refer to:

Perhaps it can be said that Tezos NFT often carries more than just a picture, for example, the enclave member NFT carries... it is actually a 3D membership card! ? https://www.akaswap.com/akaobj/8251

From the analysis of the akaSwap web page, it can be known that the tokenID of the enclave member NFT is 8251, and the content is a 3.82 MB file.

But there is no extension, and I can't see what format it is... So through the akaSwap API ( file ), you can find this paragraph in the metadata of the enclave member NFT:

 "formats": [
  {
    "uri": "ipfs://Qma2hBeecQhFXoJT8B7HbtqjEam5mFSxwsXrCU8aL79aUV",
    "mimeType": "model/gltf-binary"
  }
]

So I learned that this is the gltf-binary format of the 3D model. I try to find an online 3D model browsing website to open it, drag the file into it (need to add the extension .glb first), and compare it with the akaSwap page, as shown below:

akaSwap vs online 3D model browsing site

Well, so this file is indeed the ontology of the enclave member NFT. However, the presentation on the akaSwap website on the left is particularly textured when it is lighted up...

postscript

Finally, when will the enclave bookstore open an account in Matt City?
