Hi, community!
Project Name: INA DAO May
DAO: inav2.sputnik-dao.near
Council:
- belzua.near @Belen_Zuazo
- beluespina.near @BeluEspina
- geminirising.near @GeminiRising
And 25+ community members!
Thanks for approving our Budget for May. Below, you may see INA’s updates for the month:
Project Accounting: 8.4 N + 955.25 DAI + 89.90 MARMAJ / currently
1,497.96 USD
Still to be paid out/claimed:
- 500 USD for @ladra’s artist residence.
- 315 USD for @BeluEspina’s council work
- 140 USD for Paola Alfamor’s Super Hero
Projects/Highlights
- We ran 3 AMA Sessions in our Telegram group. The guests were @plantasia, @BeluEspina and @barbezina. The recorded videos are available in our Telegram group, and you can also find a translation for Barbara’s one at this link.
- We received 31 submissions for the Art Project “We Are Super Heroes”. After community voting, 17 were chosen to integrate our new Paras collection.
- The artworks were displayed in our Cryptovoxels art gallery and our Nearhub Gallery as a part of our Gallery Show. We also had the participation of DJ Tamu.
- 3 artists/projects were selected for the residence INA Supports your Superpower, namely, @Di.Cosmic.Art, @LulucaL and @ladra. The decision was made by reviewing the projects and their relationship with INA, as well as the financial needs involved in their materialization.
- We also dedicated more efforts and resources to our social media. Our Instagram account already has 250 followers, and our Twitter account has 170.
Learnings
- We didn’t have the audience we expected for our AMA Sessions. While it’s obviously useful to make recordings available, we’re thinking of channels besides Telegram that can have a bigger reach. These could be Twitter Spaces or Instagram Live.
- Sadly, one of our council members was the victim of fraud while asking for help to upload our card collection to Paras. Details of the case can be seen at this post. Other users have been warned about the issue, and prevention strategies have been discussed in different channels.
Next steps
- Continue with the AMA Sessions, which have been a useful way to get the community involved, and raise visibility of female artists in the ecosystem.
- Create more projects that encourage artists participation, like The condition of a woman’s body.
- Follow-up on the progress of the artist residence INA Supports your Superpower, and run an exhibit with the outcome.
- Make a smooth transition between myself and the new council member @klarakopi. More information about the council update can be found at this post.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the team.
