[@tabear](http://gov.near.org/u/tabear)
**Target:** muti.sputnik-dao.near
**Current Balance:** 8,359.26 USD in Dai, N and $mmj
**Previous report:** [[REPORT] muti Guild July](http://gov.near.org/t/report-muti-guild-july/26729)
**Projects to be funded:**
- [muti sessions with CUDO DAO](http://gov.near.org/t/proposal-mutisessions-august/26710) / 600 USD
- [Artist Stipends](http://gov.near.org/t/draft-open-call-artist-stipend-august-support-for-2-artists/26731) / 600 USD
- [Gear for Self-Sustainability 2](http://gov.near.org/t/approved-equipment-for-the-dao-for-self-sustainability/22538) / 898 USD
- [NFT Fair](http://gov.near.org/t/proposal-nft-fair-july/23926) / 250 USD
- [Set up of association](http://gov.near.org/t/update-muti-association/26665) 816 USD
- Participation in NEARCON/ [WOMEX](https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg1xPLzsMFi/) 812 USD
- We would like to send a muti delegate to NEARCON and would therefore like to request support to get the ticket, as last year NEARCON lead to a lot of fruitful partnerships and showcasing the DAO. As muti is based in Portugal the NF tavel funds do not apply to us from what we are aware of.
- In October @tabear will speak at the WOMEX conference in Lisbon, which is a big and established music conference. She will speak about how the DAO is using N and blockchain technology. We would like to acquire a second ticket so that one of our musicians and council members can join as well in order to gain more visibility and connect on a musical level.
For full transparency, we have included one ticket in our [Marketing request](http://gov.near.org/t/proposal-muti-dao-guild-august-sept-october/26438) as it will showcase not only muti but also NEAR. As currently we do not know if it will be approved because we collaborated for one month with Open Web Sandbox (discussion can be seen [here](http://gov.near.org/t/may-muti-twitter-manager-candidate-is-found/21988/6), happy to reply to questions in separate conversation if desired) and as it seems unclear how the Marketing council is moving forward, we are including it in our Creatives Budget. If the Marketing budget should be approved, we would use the amount for a second NC ticket for the second council member.
- Council matters / 1024 USD
**Total: 5000 USD**
**Metrics**
- muti sessions: DAO collaboration;more than 3k vies from the last 3 videos, 201 youtube followers & 2 external contacts which asked us to collaborate due to the sessions
- NFT Fair Pt. 2: Collaboration of 5 DAOs buying NFTs, min. value of 600 USD in N overall to flow into Mintbase creations and to support artists;
- Stipend: 2 more artists who will be onboarded into the ecosystem & report/document their works to be shared
- Gear: saving up for the soundsystem, will help the DAO to grow in the physical world as a collective, event producer and agency as well as becoming independent from funding.
- NEAR platforms used by muti: NEARhub, Mintbase, Paras, Tamago, ref.finance, Astro DAO, NEARdrops, 3xr, NEARcribs
- Platforms/Ways to showcase NEAR: Youtube, IG, FB, Twitter, Medium, our website, Linktree, muti bazaar for physical NFT redeemables

Hi @tabear, thank you for the well laid-out proposal.

So to make it easier to follow, could you please also add accumulated number so far (so that we can track this in future proposals as well how far the project has gone). And also I seem can’t find a total amount requested for this whole proposal.
Thank you!

Hello @williamx ,
The total budget is mentioned here, I marked it now in bold for an easier overview.
> [@tabear](#):

> Total: 5000 USD
Regarding this:

You can see in [this post](http://gov.near.org/t/approved-equipment-for-the-dao-for-self-sustainability/22538) the overall list of items that muti is saving up for (sound, light & projector). As we run also physical events, this will save us rental fee and will also allow us to rent it out and become more self-sustainable.
As we want to use the monthly budget to keep on supporting artists & work creatively with other DAOs, we are always only requesting a part of that to go into the Self-Sustainability fund.
As you can see we have ordered and received the projector already (which will be used on the next NFT exhibition).
Until now we have requested:
200
1350
* * *
**total** 1550
-619 (projector)
* * *
**total remaining** 931
The total sum of light & sound (excluding projector as it already arrived) is 9912 €/ 10167 USD. Obviously we are unable to acquire everything at the same and we are also counting on using the muti buffer & revenue from events to cover parts of it. We are thinking in the long term for muti, so we know that it will time to gather all the gear. We will order the pieces bit by bit and keep this list for transparency and an overview for ourselves as well.
The next step would be to get the CDJs/controllers. These funds are kept in the DAO and locked there until we are able to buy the next piece.
I hope this helps to clarify 🙂
