[APPROVED] CUDO DAO AUGUST funding request

DAO cudo.sputnikdao.near

CUDO DAO - IMMIGRANT AUDIOVISUAL, made by Immigrants and designed to welcome immigrant professionals.

CUDO DAO was born from the relationship between the producers of the project “Luggage Stories” and Incubadora Pt DAO, born in the hackathon of May 2021. Seeing the possibility of combining the most diverse projects with the support of NEAR PROTOCOL, we envisioned the opportunity to create a DAO focused on audiovisual made by Brazilian immigrants living in Portugal and thought to welcome and produce audiovisual for immigrants and natives from all over the world.

At this moment we exist in association with DAO’s like Incubadora and are in a collaborative creation phase with MUTI. Our intention is, besides our own projects, to exist as an integral support to all DAO’s that need to transcribe their respective projects to the audiovisual universe in the Lisbon and Portugal areas, plus providing support for whoever, in the Near universe, passes through Lisbon and wishes to record their own activities.

After the first couple of months of working and learning inside the Incubadora DAO, we were encouraged to create our own DAO and both expand our community and provide the educational tools to establish a presence in the Near ecosystem. This is the first step in that direction :smiley:

Projects at the start of the DAO:

  1. Histórias de bagagem (Luggage Stories) is a project that works from creating platforms for immigrants living in Portugal to express themselves and tell their story.

Using David Lynch’s “Interview Project” as inspiration, we will create 5-minute video portraits with the goal of showing stories that everyone should hear, told by those who have lived them. These stories can be about an infinite range of topics, such as childhood stories, political statements, jokes, about nothing in particular; it all depends on those being portrayed, who will have absolute freedom of expression.

The Luggage Stories already has 5 records available on Mintbase with curation and logistical support from the Incubadora DAO.

Short description of what was already done, with the interviewees wallets, etc.

  1. Tattoo Illustrator is a project focused on the collective creation of illustrators with works that are born on paper before being transferred to the skin. The project consists in building a mintbase with daily illustrations coming from designers to tattoo artists. Once transformed into NFTS, tattoo artists will have access to new possibilities for unique tattoos.

Inserted in NEAR, this project offers tattoo artists and tattoo studios a new financial language, presenting with NEAR PROTOCOL, a new way to transact money in a more collective and transparent way.

  1. Foto de Rua (Street Photo) is a project focused on allowing a platform for street photographers to sell their work online, in the form of NFT’s.

We will create a mintbase store for this purpose and create a rolling bounty to support photographers and help them mint and sell their work.

Every month we will have a photographer invited to present, through his eyes, a reading of immigration in his respective city. By making the photos available on our mintbase we are, at the same time, introducing to photographers and enthusiasts in general the NEAR PROTOCOL and all the benefits of being part of this community.

  1. Algo me mostra (something shows me) is an invitation to go sightseeing without leaving the place. Focused on being a project that values local tourism, “Algo me mostra” is a project that works from an experience told in the first person. A mix of images and a good chronicle, offering to the viewers’ eyes images produced from a smartphone and to the ears a personal and sincere narration of the experience of being there. The project consists in making videos of trips made in Portugal, presented through an unusual language for this type of content.

With 4 videos per month (one per week), the videos will feed the CUDO DAO video platform and will be made available on our mintbase offering tourists from all over the world a legitimate way to experience new places and a means to connect with the Near community.
