👋 Any musicians on here?
300+ signups for early access to SparkHouse.la with zero promotion. It’s almost like IRL community matters. Probably nothing.
Looks like CoApp is also a big fan of Humpty. Let’s $CO. @givebot @humpty.eth #CommunityBuilder
Greetings Audio Engineers, Producers, Recording Artists, and Songwriters of Farcaster! 14-time Grammy Award winner Manny Marroquin is putting on The Larrabee Studios Creator Series, an all expenses paid (thanks to help from Sony) 3 day workshop at his studios in LA. I know Manny and he is the real deal. If you're a creator in any of these areas (in any genre!) I encourage you to apply. And tag/fwd to creators! Applications close July 11. More info and application: https://www.larrabeestudios.com/creatorseries
Last year at /farcon I was inspired to start something new in the arena of my previous work at Facebook & Instagram, engaging creators and public figures to help them build content and community. We need to make it easy and compelling for them to get onchain. At first I thought this would mean building a public figure centric Farcaster client, a modern version of something I worked on for FB circa 2014. Many explorations and conversations later, I realized that the best way for me to make an impact would be further upstream - truly meeting creators where they are. We were successful (and I have mixed feelings about that success) at FB/IG because we put in the irl time. Offices and events around the world. Popup studios with legit tech to create, and access to smart, chill people to help you. Programming and community (online and irl) to help you grow. We also took a global view, and respected and reflected the nuance of working in different markets, verticals, and cultures. (continued)
In 2021, @coordinape shipped a novel product to help teams recognize and incentivize mission aligned behaviors. What started as a solution for @yearn was quickly adopted by hundreds of teams, but the barriers to scale were many. Teams had to spend time learning and using the product. Creating tokens took time and money. Someone had to admin it all. That's all changed. Right now, communities are setting up the first @coordinape CoAgents to help them recognize and incentivize values-aligned behaviors where they happen. I love this video from @zemm because it captures the energy of the building happening on @farcaster and @base.base.eth. We're not far from CoAgents creating new tokens and distributing them for communities with powerful tools like @clanker and @bankr. Things like this happen first and faster on /farcaster. If you're in crypto and you don't get that, you're forgetting why decentralization matters.
