I love the proposal. We (Mintbase) know the Arroz team personally and have been working well together with them here in Lisbon We already worked with them on art gallery (rareeffect) where Createbase was involved. Would love to have them as a guild and support each other
I think the proposal is very detailed already. All the onboarded artists can be seen here: RARE-EFFECT-1 | Total: 38
There is a huge potential in onboarding the artists on Mintbase and NEAR. I can confirm that Arroz has a very prestigious standing here in the Lisbon art community.
Wonderful initiative.
Hi @Vera, yes the Rare Effect open call was very popular - we had over 40 applicants so could only feasibly exhibit a % of the applicants unfortunately. We’re releasing the next open call today if you’re interested in applying again
Yep, thanks
Thanks for putting this together, team!
I’m a huge fan of the learning in the open approach! Perhaps, @Ozymandius could offer some help with the content, more specifically in getting it on the community curated NEAR medium blog, so that it’s all curated in one category. We could still add the original authors as publishers to guest contributors etc. Can figure out the logistics later, but just a thought
I think another interesting opportunity that we have here is to also collect feedback from the artists to understand their pain points from a usability & onboarding perspective, with both NEAR and Mintbase and convey it to the team. I think this is what @Ragingbunyip mentioned as well.
That artist feedback would definitely be super valuable to both NEAR and Mintbase.
Thanks for the feedback all
Yes, agree it would be good to collect perspectives from artists using the platforms for the first times, we can do that easily. We can also integrate into your blog if that’s the best way to record the diary…
It sounds like it would be useful to have a kick-off meeting with some experienced NEAR content creators and then we can establish the best mediums & platforms to create content?
Sure thing, ping me at Ozymandius1 on Telegram or m@4nts.com
We can get you on the Medium page in no time and help out with the writing if that would be useful!
This is a fantastic project! Well designed and thought out. FU22YDICE would love to support or help out with any usability studies for artists in residency.

Hey everyone, thanks for all your feedback and comments - excited to get stared with this
We’re hosting an open kick-off meeting to discuss the best way to document the project and interact with the NEAR community next Wednesday at 17h (link below). In the meeting we’re going to introduce the rest of the team on the ground here in Lisbon, go through the project overview & timeline and then ideate on ways to document the project.

See you next week
We’re updating our Arroz Blog with content of this project, check it out the first resident here:
I’ll be updating with more content very soon, including feedback from the artist) and also I’ll help him to create an account here in the forum
It is a nice idea to integrate the content with NEAR blog as well for sure! How can I do that?
cheers
Sounds great, Juliana!
