Comment from the creator:

"The value of a copy is less than the value of the original."

In the digital age where technology has developed, this theory may be distorted, so we replicated the banana 100 times through a 3D scanning and a 3D printing copy cycle. The project attempts to refute this theory by selling the 3D data generated in the copy cycle as NFT and comparing the unique value of each copy. Furthermore, assuming that the 3D data is purchased, branched into secondary and tertiary copies, and then circulated, it is a project to observe the companion of them.
