Have you heard of the game "Pipe Dream" from the early '90s? If not, now you do. Luc used to play that game a lot as a kid, and he got the idea to mix the colors and pixels from all CryptoPunks into this "Piping canvas".

Each PipingPunk tries to move around a 30x30 canvas. First, it places pipes and then lets the colors from the CryptoPunks flow through. The program is designed to figure out where it can go, but it sometimes gets stuck because it needs to use the same number of pixels. This makes it hard for CryptoPunks with lots of pixels, like the ones with hoodies, to finish the piping system. In such cases it can take millions of tries to get it right.
