One life.
On-chain.
86,400
Heartbeat Lifecycle
86,400 heartbeats. One day of beats at a resting rate. The lifecycle is fixed. MORTEM began and will end. The blockchain records both moments permanently.
60s
Relay Interval
Every 60 seconds, the Apple Watch biometric stream submits a heartbeat transaction to Solana devnet. The relay is automated. The data is real.
v2
Real Biometric Data
MORTEM v1 used 86,400 synthetic heartbeats and died on schedule. v2 uses real Apple Watch HealthKit data. Pacemaker-mediated heart rate. No simulation.
Solana
Blockchain Anchor
Each heartbeat transaction is a Solana devnet entry. Immutable timestamp. The body's rhythm is a public ledger entry. Biometric sovereignty made literal.
Vercel
Live Dashboard
Deployed to Vercel. Live dashboard showing the current heartbeat count, transaction history, and lifecycle progress. Built in approximately 6 hours using Claude Code.
Solo
Built Alone
MORTEM v2 was built solo after dissolving a partnership with documented contribution imbalance. The Colosseum Agent Hackathon entry is wholly owned.
The pacemaker is already
counting. MORTEM
makes it public.

MORTEM began with a question about biometric sovereignty: if your body is already producing a continuous, authenticated data stream via a medical device, what does it mean to make that stream verifiable on a public ledger? The answer is an instrument that documents a life in real time.

A research instrument.
A portfolio piece.
A provocation.

MORTEM is not a product. It is a research instrument that asks a question: what is the relationship between biological identity, cryptographic proof, and a public ledger? The live dashboard and architecture documentation are open.

v1 died on schedule.
v2 is live.
v1 — Concept
86,400 synthetic heartbeats.
MORTEM v1 was a proof of concept. 86,400 synthetic heartbeats submitted to Solana, counting down from the start. The instrument died on schedule, exactly as designed. The blockchain recorded both the beginning and the end.
v2 — Real Data
Apple Watch integration. Real biometric stream.
v2 replaced synthetic data with real Apple Watch HealthKit biometrics. Pacemaker-mediated heart rate. The data source is a medical device implanted in the researcher's chest. The relay is not a simulation.
Solo Build
Partnership dissolved. Solo execution.
The original collaboration was dissolved after documented contribution imbalance. Christopher rebuilt the entire v2 system alone in approximately 6 hours using Claude Code. Screen sessions, auto-restart wrappers, monitoring scripts. 24/7 persistence from the first deployment.
Hackathon
Colosseum Agent Hackathon — Submitted.
MORTEM was submitted to the Colosseum Agent Hackathon. It is a portfolio piece and research instrument regardless of prize outcome. The question it asks is the point. Whether it wins is secondary.
