Abstract: Systems and methods for creating programmable art are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for creating programmable art, comprising: receiving, at one or more processors, a data package comprised of at least one image and image details from a user, wherein the data package further comprises a set of properties and logic for the image and image details thereby creating a piece of programmable art; reviewing, at the one or more processors, the package for compliance issues; creating, at the one or more processors, a cryptographic token linked to the data package upon receipt of a whitelisted cryptographic signature from the user; and updating, at the one or more processors, a smart contract stored on a distributed ledger network with the cryptographic token and data package.
