Cardano Transaction to Soundtrack

Overview

This project retrieves blocks from the Cardano blockchain and fetches the latest transactions. It then breaks down transaction hashes into 4-bit parts and matches these parts against a library of techno samples. The result is a unique soundtrack generated from blockchain data.

Features

• Fetch data from the Maestro API
• Download generated soundtracks as .mp3 files to local disk
• Option to upload .mp3 files to the Iagon storage service
• Mint a digital asset representing the generated soundtrack

Technologies Used

• Maestro API: For fetching blocks and submitting mint transactions
• Iagon Storage: For storing .mp3 files
• NMKR: for minting service

Intended Use

This application is designed for educational and entertainment purposes. It serves as a fun exploration of the intersection between blockchain technology and music creation.

Future Expansions

• Extend functionality to include events from Wanchain
• Additional features to enhance user experience

5. API NMKR setup an account on NMKR studio: you need:

• UID of the NFT project to mint under the same policy API key for using the APIs

• MINT coupons to mint directly from the API on the go

• You can find all the docs of the NMKR APIs here https://studio-api.nmkr.io/swagger/index.html but we'll be using the following:

• /v2/UploadNft/{projectuid} to upload an image as NFT on NMKR studio

• /v2/MintAndSendSpecific/{projectuid}/{nftuid}/{tokencount}/{receiveraddress} This will mint a specific NFT and send to an address

6. Install Nami or Eternl or your prefered cardano wallet, mainly to mint nft.
