Introducing PERMA 📸

PERMA is an image exchange network built on Ethereum. Every photo is owned and shared by the people of the network. Whether it’s an app or a physical camera, how you take the photo is entirely up to you. When you press the shutter button, your image immediately becomes ownable, immutable, and tradable.

Think of internet pen pals, but for photos. The aim is not to be ‘status seeking’; the simple exchange of photos can eventually become socially valuable for the people within the network.

Founded in 1969 by Michael Morris and Vincent Trasov the Image Bank helped facilitate the exchange of ideas, images and information between artists through the use of the postal system.

Image Bank compiled and printed address and image requests lists that were sent to participants through the mail creating an open ended decentralized method of networking.
