sure, I want to redo that microplastics in bottled water study that was done a year ago in SF to see if it replicates

we are going to just keep doing art cards
can you give us an example of a submission you are thinking about
because otherwise we are not going to make the leap
you need to go make better ideas
and if you don't like them
and I am going to vote for my own submissions :)
I am going to submit things that I want to get done
you will find me in the meme cards this coming season
the same thing is going to happen now
even though it felt awkward like I was talking to the air
I had to sit here and chat with myself
and not only say "you can only find me here"
until I decided that I just needed to bite the bullet
and this went on for two months
in the beginning everyone was complaining and we just kept going back and forth
the second big step change was migrating here from Discord
like "would any artist even want to do it"
it is hard to remember how fragile and weird that looked then
the first step change was when @[6529er] and I were going around convincing @[OSF] and @[Ayla] and so on to submit a meme card SZN1
and at the step change, I need to model first
what it is, is that we are going through a step change
we had a sub-discussion in the team meeting today where @[krybharat] said "wait, are we curating again" and I said "no, this is not it exactly"
as opposed to hoping the universe will manifest submissions that have what I have in mind
I am going to have to roll up my sleeves now and get into the execution of ideas
my sense is that to get to the next phase
I plan to rope some of you into them
and be forewarned
I have a decent number of ideas
it is going to get a different set of attention
when we say "we curated this young researcher who did XYZ small study" and we have released the data into the public domain
they can't visualize how it can work
it just sounds like bullshit I suspect to most people
so when i say "we need to coordinate country sized economies as a goal"
what we have done so far is impressive IF you already understand NFTs but to anyone else outside NFTs it just looks like NFTs
none of them are going to work
if we have a blockchain and a generative contract and a 1 of 1 contract and a better home page but no animating vision that you can imagine people rallying around
I feel good about this
I am going to start working on "doing things ideas"
so tomorrow @[DarrenSRS] is going to start working on artist ideas
I am on the low end of Brand )tim) and I am arguably the only one who has remained totally normal :)
the online experience for a normal person and a Brand (tm) is a very different thing
i just think there is also a massive social aspect to this place.. likely biased as this is the only place i interact and have ever interacted
they are post "having a chat with their friends"
you are talking about people who have graduated into major tech brands
I think my point will be clearer if you ask your self if the brand manager for Coca-Cola is interested in Coca-Cola having an intimidate conversation with 200 people or doing a super bowl ad
yes he is.. makes sense.. just thinking of having a meme card be its own little universe where a balaji or naval or bryan could curate an interesting little community.. it could also then be expanded with xTDH given to some free mint or something
a cultural organization in Hydrabada
a journalist in Peru
a young researcher
we should be working with ideas and concepts and people for whole $10K to $20K is material
my mental model is he wants to create action as free marketing
he is superb at engagement
