💃 Dance & Choreography · historical dance archives

Kinetic · x402

A high-fidelity motion database where every frame of archival dance is metered. Pay 0.01 USDC to stream a sequence, unlock a historical step breakdown, or license a choreography string for AI training. Move from 'ownership' to 'flow'—choreographers get paid in real-time as dancers session with the past.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the historical dance archives engine is metered with x402: 0.01 HBAR or 0.01 HTS USDC per call, paid from the embedded wallet, so choreographers — or the agents working for them — pay per query and get a HashScan receipt every time.

Why this primitiveTraditional archives are static; x402 turns them into a liquid library. By pricing access at the micro-level (per-view or per-step), it removes the friction of high-cost subscriptions for students while ensuring every 'unlock' of a legacy move directly compensates the estate or archival fund.
