The next Figure is generated when the previous auction is finalized, usually by the winner. However, anyone can also finalize an auction by calling finalize on the Marketplace Contract with the currentListingId from the Figures Contract.
Figures is an ever-growing set of numerals.
One piece from Figures, based on a provably fair randomly generated number, is auctioned on-chain every day, with the sale of a piece starting the auction of the next. The artwork is generative and stored directly on-chain.
