With things becoming increasingly hostile in the US (tactics which are sure to be copied by other regimes worldwide), it’s important that we continue working just as hard as those who try to control through fear in building our new borderless and conscious community.
And it needs to inspire.
And what’s more inspirational than art?
This week I spoke mainly to artists and patrons. The artists have ideas, but they require support and funding. Then there are patrons who would like to support projects but maybe aren't sure where/how to do it.
One structure that came up more than once was the idea of an Everywhere Sharing Fund, with associated guidelines for art and sustainability projects. For example, one of the art guidelines could be that it needs to be displayed publicly during Everywhere in November.
Again the blockchain comes up as a means of transparency.. having it run and managed through a DAO. But again this feels overly complicated for a first iteration.
So far I’ve been happily supporting smaller initiatives, but there is more we can do if others also feel led to contribute. Those who do can message me directly, and I’ll also put out an open call through the Everywhere instagram (now over 700 followers!) in the coming days.
