# Owner's Manual Your Scrip is an advanced device that can contain other inscriptions — from text, stories, lore, ideas, to art, video, audio and more. *Here's how to inscribe onto your Scrip*: Make this screen bigger by opening your Scrip in full screen mode by going to ordinals.com/content/yourInscriptionID Two Steps = (1) Write something + (2) Inscribe a Child to your Scrip 1. **WRITE SOMETHING BELOW**! — a note, an idea, an observation, a story • Delete all of the words currently in here and create your own 2. **INSCRIBE A CHILD to your Scrip** • Copy the markdown on left side, or download it as a file from the navbar • Paste the text or upload the file on [Chisel](https://chisel.xyz) • Inscribe it as a child to your Scrip using the Parent/Child setting • Ignore the "Bring Your Own" setting 3. Note re: inscribing children: • You can fund step 1 with any wallet. • You can send your Scrip in step 2 using any wallet. It will come back to you in the same transaction as your child gets inscribed. • Ignore those Xverse and Unisat buttons. • Check [mempool.space](https://mempool.space) to see the current and recent fee range • Advanced users can use your own node for this, of course Done! Once the block confirms, come back to your Scrip and click the Field Notes button to see it render. Scrips are what we make of them — thou mayest make with us.

There are things that bring us joy. And sometimes — sometimes just a glimpse — there is clarity. I do not know of your world, but here is what fuels ours: - The beauty of people uncovering their own creativity - The feeling of teamwork in together manifesting meaning - The magic of learning - The joy of self discovery ### Welcome, you have found a Scrip - You hold in our hand a Scrip — an advanced device that contains an emergent onchain world. - As we hold the Scrips in our hands, zoom in, and then inscribe our own content into them, we begin to manifest *new* meaning. - Which means: Scrips are what we make of them. ### Where did these Scrips come from? - Each [recursive Scrip](/children/4a86d375a70a4ecc7ffcd910e05f5e0771ae6a50133543f1bf6b5651adbf0019i0) is an AI-manifested AᚱTIFACT, quantum-entangled with the [OG Scrips](/inscription/4a86d375a70a4ecc7ffcd910e05f5e0771ae6a50133543f1bf6b5651adbf0019i0) through a 150-parent "Vault" inscription. ### On emergent art > Emergent art is not something you **spectate** > It’s not someone else’s art you **participate** in > It’s a crystal ball from which you **become** the artist by **deriving** and **manifesting** your visions of the whole work > *The audience is the artist is the art is the Emergent Artwork* - Scrips are emergent art — AI-manifested digital artifacts that evolve and expand as we inscribe our own ideas/stories/art/meaning to them via parent-child inscriptions. - Scrips aims to expand the scope of what's possible with Bitcoin, from a transaction ledger, to file storage, to a canvas for networked creativity. - Thank you to [Casey](https://github.com/ordinals/ord/) for arming us with the tools and supplies to pioneer this frontier. ### Postcards to the future > We're sending postcards to the future for excavaators to find in the generations that follow. Within these Scrips, you will find an emergent, interconnected network of field notes, art, stories, lore, content, media, and more. These Scrips contain glimpses of our visions, our derivations, our fears, our memories, our ideas, our hopes, our dreams. These Scrips contain a world, our world, your world. Thou mayest continue what we've begun. Welcome. — 𝚃𝚒𝚖𝚜𝚑𝚎𝚕

Note: to embed an image inside your file, you must adhere to the format: > /content/inscriptionID — and the inscriptionID must be a jpeg/png/gif not an HTML/text/other file type
