Artists can derive work from one another's work, ultimately forming branching chains of distributed shares in the entire community's body of work.\n\n================\nWhy (the problems)\n================\nThrough the experiment, we will test some hypotheses for why co-creation is so under-served in the digital art community, and examine whether web3 can address them.\n\nThere are many barriers to co-creation which make self-publishing unwieldy and impractical for artists:\n- gathering a band of collaborators inside a culture of lone artists and their personal brands\n- agreeing upon and creating towards a coherent vision\n- keeping track of who contributed what, and thus deciding who gets a stake in the final outcome\n- sorting out IP rights for your own works or those you are licensing\n- the double-edged sword of going with a publisher, or going it alone\u2026 etc\u2026\n\n====\nHow\n====\nPerhaps we can demonstrate whether web-3 powered intersubjective co-creation could flip the script on the traditional centralised content publishing pipeline?\n\nWe are developing an artist's interface via a webapp which abstracts away web-3 complexity. Artists can self-organise and jam together, spin up blender sessions, apply IP licences, allocate shares in co-created works, leaving trails of their work for others to explore, pick up from, get inspired by, and ultimately co-create\n\nPDF link - https://www.dropbox.com/s/7q4t1h7wwspg0k1/Erganism%20-%20Co-creation%20MVP-compressed.pdf?dl=0\n\n========\nRoadmap\n========\n===================\nCompleted Milestones\n===================\n- Validated technical viability of nested share ownership via slice.so and holons.io stack\n- Gathered community of digital artists and regular co-creation session participants\n- Conducted cloud container-hosted Blender multi-user sessions with digital artists\n\n====\nMVP\n====\n- App and user interface for the first Erganism experiment that will spin up hosted blender sessions, and split shares via slice.so or holons.io\n\n==============\nLong-term Goals\n==============\n- Enable entire community-selected chains of intersubjective co-creation from genesis of an idea through to publishing of community-generated IP \n\n========================\nFuture use-cases and Impact\n========================\n- Derivative works in any industry\n- Starting any project, startup\n- User generated content in video games\n- Fair contributory accounting for AI training datasets\n- Large pipelines of derivative and community sourced work in games and films\n- Uses that we can't even imagine yet :)", "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "Erganism", "projectTwitter": "erganism"}
