The internet is being rebuilt from the ground up, and the social landscape of the internet is undergoing a tectonic shift.
These two tidal forces are pointing to a new stage of the attention economy and forcing us to reexamine the fundamentals.

Today we're bringing together everything:
- DAOs taught us about ownership
- working with consumer apps showed us scale
- launching rollups revealed centralization risks
They were all pieces of a bigger puzzle
What we learned:
- communities need real ownership
- reaching scale comes from user alignment
- value must flow to apps and their users
- tech alone doesn't drive adoption
Autonomous chains are our answer:
a way for communities to truly own their platforms, control their economies & build their future.
Excited to share more about what we're building. This brings together everything we've worked on since brainstorming the earliest aspects of Syndicate in 2018. The future is autonomous.

ORBIT: Creator Editions features Sean (@seanxthielen) who recently won our Cyberphysical Brand Concepts Contest with @IDEOVC with his innovative design "SLING"
In this interview, we explore:
🟥 Sean's journey into blending physical objects with computing, focusing on embodied experiences with Meta Ray-Bans and the Humane AI Pin, and how they enhance his artistic process
🟥 The creation of "SLING," a functional accessory to provide a consistent field of view for the AI Pin
🟥 The collaborative design process resulting in a unique wearable that merges form and function.
🟥 Insights on demand-driven manufacturing, sustainability in fashion, and the importance of reducing waste through pre-orders.
🟥 Reflections on the mechanics of pay-to-vote contests, the hyper-financialization of art, and lessons AI can learn from crypto's interactions with creativity.
And much more! Dive into the full conversation to explore Sean's unique perspective on the intersection of art, technology, and design.
Don't miss your chance to preorder "SLING" on Crowdmuse this Friday 29th Nov

this very DIY contest + campaign with @IDEOVC got us to test some of our assumptions around the design -> distribution -> production phases to get creators to design something people want + to avoid overproduction.
still yet to see if this model works with a community voting on a design + whether they would actually buy the final product!
its a tough model to coordinate manually, which i would rather feed the process into an agent to run multiple contests like this at a faster pace on @jokerace_io
a lot of this still depends on whether the creator or the platforms used have the distribution to help accelerate eyeballs + paying customers.
we saw over 3000 votes from 53 unique wallets on the contest with 1,722 votes going to the final winner @seanxthielen yet we are still to see whether this equates to sales on the winner's pre-order drop. if it doesn't we have to understand why sales don't convert even if a community was excited to vote...

Now that the Cyberphysical contest has come to a close, we wrote up a retro to share our learnings.
Throughout a three-month campaign, we explored themes around ->
// the adoption of 3D design, genAI, and digital tools
// how this can help creators design concepts of physical prouction
// how community voting can help distribution of ideas and if it translates to final sales
