# ZABAL Update #4 — Introducing ZABAL.art

*The New Home for Submissions*

With the first wave of ZABAL updates now in motion — the AMA, the fractal, the leaderboard, and the December flow — today marks the next major step:

**The launch of** [**ZABAL.art**](http://ZABAL.art)**, the official submission page for the ZABAL stream.**

For the first time, there’s a single place where anyone can share what they’re working on — music, writing, builds, ideas, experiments — and have it reviewed live during stream sessions. No scattered links, no lost DMs, no guessing where to send things.

[ZABAL.art](http://ZABAL.art) keeps everything organized, simple, and visible.

**Why** [**ZABAL.art**](http://ZABAL.art) **exists**
----------------------------------------------------

The ZABAL ecosystem is expanding fast.  
Streams, recaps, the SongJam leaderboard, daily yaps, spaces, and governance are all moving at once.

What we needed was a central hub — a front door.

[ZABAL.art](http://ZABAL.art) gives us that:

• One place to submit anything you want reviewed  
• One place for me to queue, sort, and prioritize  
• One place for the community to follow along during streams  
• One place that can scale as ZABAL grows throughout 2026

This page becomes the intake layer for the entire ecosystem.

**How it works (simple)**
-------------------------

Step 1 — Go to [**ZABAL.art**](http://ZABAL.art)  
Step 2 — Submit what you’re working on  
Step 3 — Include your name, intro, and wallet (optional)  
Step 4 — I review it live on stream  
Step 5 — It gets added to the weekly recap on Paragraph

That’s it.

No voting yet.  
No multiplier logic yet.  
No complexity.

Just submissions → stream → recap.

We’ll layer in more features over time — but the goal right now is clarity and consistency.

**This stream cycle becomes the backbone**
------------------------------------------

[ZABAL.art](http://ZABAL.art) is the first piece of a bigger streaming loop we’re building:

• Submissions flow in  
• I review them live  
• The community reacts and participates  
• Everything is archived into the newsletter  
• SongJam + Empire Builder track the activity on the backend

By January, this loop will be fully developed.

For December, we’re keeping it simple — open the door, start the flow, and refine as we go.

* * *

**Live tests begin this week**
------------------------------

The first testing streams will happen over the next few days as we start running submissions through the system.

This is the warm-up before the real push in January.

If you have something you want reviewed, shared, or amplified:

**Submit it here:** [**ZABAL.art**](http://ZABAL.art)

This is the beginning of a new chapter in how we build together.
