Travel Funding for The Kin DAO x Primordia DAO as NEAR Ambassadors @ Tribeca Film Festival & NFT.NYC
Greetings NEAR Community!
The Kin DAO and Primordia DAO have received the opportunity to be NEAR Ambassadors @ Tribeca Film Festival and NFT.NYC this June 2022! Some of you may have seen our Approved Proposal to be NEAR Ambassadors at SXSW in March when we began our marketing contract with Kwasi Asare from Feedia. Unfortunately we were unable to actualize this activation due to a slow response on our proposal which is why we are doing our best to get the ball rolling on our upcoming activations early!
This proposal to the community is a request strictly for travel funding to support our team of 5 in these activations.
Please read our Project History to get a fuller understanding of all The Kin DAO has done since 2020.
We understand the breadth of this ask and would like to clarify that our 2 year, grassroots project has been completely self funded up until November 2021 when we began receiving some grants through the Creatives DAO which we dedicate to pay for the costs of labor to cultivate our creative projects. The Kin DAO x Primordia DAO have an intention to become self sustainable and believe that these activations will place our projects, and NEAR, onto global stages that will not only promote the NEAR ecosystem, but boost us in our path to becoming a self sustainable entities. We are women lead team living on minimum income, one of us a being a single mother of three who recently lost her primary caregiver in November 2021, meaning an entire family is connected to all of our movements. As unordinary as we may be to some, the essence of us is truly Kin - family. Without the living people we interact with, are supported by and whom we are raising every day, we are nothing. We do everything we do so that the future generations that we are nurturing will have a chance at living in better systems than what are available today. To us decentralization is no joke as we watch our seeds grow in real time. Our work is deeply rooted in shifting systems of living from compartmentalized, competitive, disassociated exclusivity to holistic, open sourced inclusivity that support the wellbeing of all beings rather than hold barriers up to those of us who are caregivers to future generations.
Goals & Objective:
Our goal for 2022 is to launch 100 DAOs on NEAR Protocol. Our direct and extended communities have the capacity of 12 million people meaningfully engaging on NEAR Protocol. Our communities are historically disenfranchised, excluded humans globally that we would like to open access for on an ethical blockchain like NEAR. We recognize the enormous value we bring to NEAR and are reaching out with the intention of procuring support from NEAR Foundation for The Kin DAO to be NEAR AMbassadors at the Tribeca Film Festival and NTF.NYC as we officially launch phase one of our Primordia Virtual NFT Art Exhibition. This virtual art exhibition will be curated in New Art City, giving a teaser to the Primordia DAO project as a whole, featuring our Golden Coin PFP’s from The Vault, NFTs from some of the 24+ DAOs we will have onboarded with storytelling from each community. All of our NFT’s will be minted on NEAR through mintbase. These activations will serve as The Kin DAO’s x Primordia DAO’s official mainstream, public introduction while highlighting NEAR on global platforms as an ethical, sustainable, creative, user friendly, community focused, social good protocol.
Where: New York City, USA
When: June 8th - June 23rd
Impact:
The Tribeca Film Festival brings visionaries and diverse audiences together to celebrate storytelling in all its forms, including film, TV, VR, gaming, music, and online work. With strong roots in independent film, Tribeca is a platform for creative expression and immersive entertainment. The Festival champions emerging and established voices; discovers award-winning filmmakers and creators; curates innovative experiences; and introduces new technology and ideas through premieres, exhibitions, talks, and live performances. Over 150,000 people attend the 250-plus events over 12 days in 2019.
→ This is where we would like to drum up excitement for our NFT.NYC event while onboarding and promoting NEAR protocol as chosen ecosystem through speaking engagements, presentations, participation and networking.
Each year, NFT.NYC brings together the global NFT community of Brands, Developers, Entrepreneurs, Gamers, Artists, Investors, Collectors, and Enthusiasts. The 2021 event sold out with 5,600 participants and over 3,000 on the waitlist.
→ This is where we would like to host our Kin DAO x Primordia DAO premiere event at the High Bar between June 20th - June 23rd. This event will be the opening for our Primordia Virtual NFT Art Exhibition where we publicly present The Kin DAO and Primordia DAO on NEAR to the world. Since this event will be taking place in the midst of NFT.NYC, there will be much competition to create an emaculate experience as countless activations will be taking place.
Our plan is to create an exclusive afternoon/evening tea party where our 300+ high level industry leaders can enjoy presentations, live music performances, NEAR onboarding and food. This event will be co-managed by Kwasi Asare, our marketing team member from Feedia, who brings his expansive connections and storied career experience of executing global marketing campaigns for artists and brands such as Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, Jerry Wonda, Ice Cube, Prince, Pharrell, Wu-Tang Clan, LL Cool J, Outkast, Gnarls Barkley, John Legend, Snoop Dogg, Mary J Blige, The Roots, The Fugees, Diageo, WMG, Sony Music, Estee Lauder and more.
