Satoshi, the Creation of Bitcoin
A two-minute poetic short by Arthur Machado that approaches the creation of Bitcoin as an audiovisual origin story. The film is a compact work rather than a conventional explanatory documentary.
The Bitcoin angle
Bitcoin's creation is the film's subject and its formal challenge: instead of explaining the protocol in documentary interviews, Machado translates the Satoshi origin story into a short visual treatment.
