From my previous article this week talking about Time Pieces' Good News Show hosted by Rachel W (still my favorite Space after four years of listening to social audio broadcasts), to conversations led by some of the most forward-thinking minds in the Latin American region from Mexico to Argentina, this week reminded me exactly why I joined Web3 in the first place. It’s not just a technological shift, it’s continuing education, inclusion, and above all, hope. For many of us, it’s about building systems where creativity is valued and rewarded fairly.
With all this energy fueling us, we’re excited to step forward with a major announcement. Over the past few months, MAGENTA DAO has been quietly building in stealth mode, laying the foundation for a new phase of growth and community impact. Today, we’re proud to unveil the next step in our journey:
We are thrilled to introduce our Mentorship Program, aimed at students passionate about film and content creation, with a particular focus on animation in its early stages. We are actively onboarding students in Mexico, Colombia, Dominican Republic and Florida, and we’re inviting educators and institutions to review our proposal and provide feedback.
This is a living, evolving program and your insights are essential. We welcome private conversations and collaborations with schools to improve and refine the experience for students. Together, we can shape a program that genuinely supports and empowers the next generation of creators in Latin America.
Mission Statement
"To democratize the streaming industry through blockchain technology by empowering both content creators and viewers. Our mission is to foster innovation, inclusion, and transparency in media production and distribution enabling creators to directly benefit from their work, while giving the community a voice in platform governance."
Vision Statement
"To become the leading decentralized platform for content streaming breaking down barriers between creators and audiences. We envision a world where creative work is rewarded fairly and accessibly, driven by community-led governance that promotes diverse and independent media landscapes across the globe."
As we open this new chapter, we want to make one thing clear: MAGENTA DAO is not just a platform, it’s a movement. A community dedicated to reimagining how media is made, shared, and valued. We are learning together, building together, and uplifting the next generation of talent across Latin America and beyond.
We’d love to hear from you. If you’re interested in contributing feedback or learning more about our mentorship program or long-term vision, feel free to book a call with us. We also encourage you to follow MAGENTA DAO on Warpcast, the decentralized platform where we’ll be engaging and compensating our community.
We’re just getting started—MAGENTA DAO is here, and we’re building with purpose.
I’ve always said that people only get old when they stop learning; so I’m not getting old, just getting wiser.
Today, I joined the Time Pieces weekly Twitter Space: The Good News show hosted by Rachel W, and my mind was blown by all the valuable insights. I’ve listened to her shows before, and after four years of listening to various Twitter Spaces, hers remains my favorite. Why? Because I always walk away feeling like I’ve just listened to a group of seasoned professionals at an executive level. No disrespect to the many Millennials and Gen Z creators, some of whom I do listen to from time to time and who offer great content but I personally can’t handle high-pitched or overly animated voices for too long, especially when I’m listening through my AirPods. That’s just me.
Today’s session was so good that I had to share it in two different group chats I'm in: 1 with my fashion colleagues, 2 with my childhood friends both full of Gen Xers (with a few late Gen Xers in the fashion group). I also sent the recording to my Millennial daughter, who’s in a creative field but doesn’t usually make time to learn about AI. That’s how impactful the conversation was; it reminded me why I joined Web3 in the first place.
What originally drew me to Web3 was the steep learning curve. Let’s call it what it really is: continuing education. People often refer to YouTube as a kind of university and while the content is definitely there, staying motivated to consistently search for and absorb it can be a challenge. So, as silly as it might sound, if you can find a Twitter Space for just one hour a week that gives you solid takeaways, then by all means, make time for it; I'd recommend The Good News Show. During COVID, I listened to the Bankless guys a lot, they do a great job onboarding people into the world of crypto.
I’ve found tremendous value in listening to strangers talk about emerging tech, and the knowledge I’ve gained feels priceless. With that said, I’m sharing the link to the Time Pieces Twitter Space here where you can listen to the recording. If you're interested in AI, web3 or have children, I think you'll find it just as interesting as I did.
Sincerely,
