DocT is a Germany-based multidisciplinary artist and practicing pediatrician whose work combines storytelling, anthropology and technology into conceptually driven visual narratives. He has said his time working in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq is part of why he began making art. His digital editions are released through VIVID Gallery, often paired with physical objects that fuse early data-storage technology with blockchain permanence.
In My Brain On Chain (2025), he inscribed an MRI scan of his own brain onto the Bitcoin blockchain, an edition of 33 released through VIVID Gallery in January 2025 at 0.0125 BTC each. Each piece was paired with a physical “OrdiObject” — a refurbished Sony floppy disk drive from the late 1990s or early 2000s that serves as both packaging and frame. As he put it, “through the decentralized permanence of blockchain, thoughts are no longer bound by a single mind”.
