Mirror, this is a test. I’ve recently received word that creator rewards for free NFT collects are being enabled and I had to come see what that meant!

One issue: my old wallet was compromised and I don’t use it anymore. I may need to update my ENS name as well…

But, whether this is your first time reading my writings or if you’ve been following my escapades for some time already, you’re probably equally likely to be surprised by what I’m going to be discussing in this quick post. After all, this is only a test!

2024 has been a whirlwind of activity thus far. The Page Token has been deployed to Osmosis and the incentive gauge has been deployed. This mechanism has attracted over $40,000 of liquidity in the first few weeks of its operation, and real-time information is available here:

Additionally, governance for PageDAO is now live on the Osmosis blockchain. PageDAO’s radical transparency is enabled by this structured DAO tooling that makes it possible for us to use the $PAGE token as we have never been able to use it before, for onchain governance and membership.

The teams at Osmosis and DAODAO both deserve a major shout-out so follow them on twitter if you don’t already and I’ll present one more massive PageDAO development from January 2024: the Secret Labs grant. The details of that arrangement can be found at the PageDAO Website here:

Oh. I almost forgot. I’ve enrolled at Texas Tech University in the PhD program for experimental psychology, the Neuroscience program in particular. I’m working on developing a line of empirical research that will add shape to our conception of conscious thought itself, if things work out the way I am hoping they will. In any case, I believe I will learn a lot from this final degree and it may result in me returning to my old favorite job of all time: teaching college.

ETHDenver is going to be beyond fun this year, and it is with boundless enthusiasm that I will now pivot to announcing my current project.

My writings are scattered across the internet. Recently, I constructed a ResearchGate profile for my new institutional affiliation, and one of the tasks I undertook was to relocate a handful of scholarly articles to a new home, which you can find here:

This brought up a deep welling of fear within my soul: I’ve also written literally hundreds of articles on sites as diverse as Medium.com, Publish0x.com, Mirror.xyz, Paragraph.xyz, and dozens more.

Mirror and I have a long history of not working together effectively, but I believe I am seeing a new direction for the platform and I believe that direction offers something incredible: platform rewards. So I’m excited - and my dread has disappeared. Instead, I think I have the energy I’ll need to begin rereleasing all of my old blog content here. I’m not sure what the order will be or how long this will take or even really how many things there are that are worth revising/preserving, but I intend to seize this opportunity to do a better job of presenting it all.

And I will make them all limited edition NFTs, which you can collect if you like. And, because this is Web3, if you do we can both get rewarded. Here’s the split, from Mirror’s announcement:

Don’t forget to follow me here, on Mirror. I may have quite a few releases coming soon, all via Web3 and all to be collected, here, for the first time, in the same place!
