Using blockchain technology to publish poetry may seem strange to some, but it is actually a great opportunity for poets to take control of the direct line to their audience. You can bypass the traditional publishing system, that often overlooks fresh voices, and still have an opportunity to earn some income. It is still a struggle, though. And of course, there is this negative attitude to anything crypot or blockchain. With trpplzine, I'm trying to change that. It is intended as a bridge between those living and creating in the world of crypto and blockchains (we call that living onchain) and those who are not. That is why the poems in the zine, all created by poets who have used blockchain tech for publishing, are copied on a typewriter before they are cut out of the paper, and pasted into a master file with sticky tape. There's real handcraft involved in creating this zine, and I've tried to make that obvious. - continued (1/2) https://kismet.art/artwork/0x2ea58dc6019f2ad55c4586d30b24f8275e6bfea6/1

Working on trpplzine again. My zine to celebrate onchain poetry. And to build bridges to the craftsmanship of making poetry, all poems will be typed out on my typewriter. You can support the zine. Funds raised will cover production and distribution costs, and if I reach the target, will also cover artist rewards. https://artizen.fund/index/p/tpprlzine

Working on raising funds for trpplzine #1. I am finally going to make it happen. Lining up poets, preparing the master copy and now also trying to raise funds for production and distribution of the zine, but also to be able to give something to the contributing poets and artist. Let's see where this goes. Boost here on Artizen https://artizen.fund/index/p/tpprlzine arkeshare

In this well argued and researched essay, Cameron Armstrong argues for a Corpus Levy to be paid by makers of frontier AI models to compensate for the use of, what @cameron calls, the public genius we collectively generated over the existence of humanity. I fully agree on this. Although Cameron argues to start with America only, I think jurisdictions the EU, Switzerland, Canada and Australia should certainly join in, as they have comparable systems with their private copying levy schemes. We need smart, forward thinking legislation for AI, not dysfunctional extensions of existing copyright laws. https://www.wysr.xyz/p/the-private-capture-of-public-genius arkeshare

Second attempt. Already better. This one was easier to capture and that made a lot of difference.

First attempt at making stamps of found textures, inspired by @anacarolina.eth. Have things to learn and experiment with. This is going to be fun.
