FUTURENOW
---------

There are two goals here:

1.  Accelerate onchain discovery, adoption, and usability
    
2.  Incubate creative sovereignty, acumen, and potential
    

### Onchain

A world where creators own their equity. A life where visual artists go on tour. One where virtual get-togethers provide dining tables for the global communities.

Onchain is young, and therefore defenseless. _Don’t click a link you don’t know_ is the epitome of this defenselessness.

Simultaneously it is ripe with potential. It can not be nurtured without a hands-on approach.

**_FUTURENOW_**\* \*is currently a solo project that will hopefully grow beyond [me](https://twitter.com/0xlght). It will start as a place to aesthetically contextualize the distillation of my first hand experiences onchain, and the wisdom I have bled, perspired, and grieved to earn; in hopes that it accelerates the efforts of the adoption wave and budding potentials.

### Incubation

Creatives are a curious bunch. I know because I am one. The difference in many cases is that I have a love for the market side of things. I see it as a creative endeavor as well.

From the 2.5yrs of daily networking with other creatives onchain, I see that I have something many are looking for. I will bring that to **_FUTURENOW_**. It is my hope that it energizes them the way my digital sensei @[jackbutcher](https://twitter.com/jackbutcher) did for me in 2020.

Beyond that I hope to attract other talent interested in the good fight. It will be my pleasure to welcome them in and scale this thing into an onchain-native superpower.

Some of the things long-term that interest me here are:

*   curation daos
    
*   onchain media
    
*   onchain creative consultation/edu-packages
    

and more.

The first project to this new brand will be the ebook of my essay series _A Non-Technical & Highly Speculative Look at Memes: Parts 1-7_. It will go onchain of course.

After that I have a surprise aesthetic gift for a certain curator in the space. With their blessing I will also be releasing that onchain.

The meme here is _access_. Access to acceleration and incubation. Any onchain creative that wants it can come get it. There will be free components to most things and I will do my best to make them of good enough value that purchasable items are more for supporting the brand and bonus content.
