Lesson #1 of building in public: Shorten the feedback loop by working through the problem collaboratively. Thanks to all of you who gave feedback yesterday and helped me get my graphic to this iteration. Here’s my next one and a little bit about why I’m building The Tapestry 🧵 this #onchainsummer

Extremely cool. Looking forward to seeing this come to life. 2000 $degen My suggestion for the vid: put together at the end and volume down the piano 2 or 3 steps. So the title would be a virtual home for preserving and weaving oral stories together. Also, consider the word virtual. Why is it there and does it fit with the long term plan?

Thank you Arjan for the tips! Pun intended 😅🙏🏿 I appreciate your feedback. I used the word virtual because I felt it was important to distinguish from a a physical/traditional archive. In truth I do struggle to find words that encapsulate the entirety of the vision. Other descriptors I considered were “virtual archive” “digital archive”, “non-traditional archive”, etc. I chose home because it felt broader but I’m curious about your thoughts on some of the alternatives.

With love, Ibraheem. I think home is great. Archive seems always like a place you store away things in. These stories need to live. I understand the use of virtual, but I was wondering if you could generate some kind of "story box" that people in local communities or ethnographic museums can use to help them enjoy the tapestry stories, and weave a tapestry of themselves. Maybe in community centres, for example. There's a small museum in The Netherlands that tells of the colonial history with what is now Indonesia from a human and cultural perspective. They have quite some exhibitions with stories told by the people who lived them. There must be more places like that in the world. Just some wild thoughts. Your project is very inspiring.

Everything you said speaks exactly to what I want to build! From describing the function to the examples! I love that you get it. One word I’ve always had in mind is loom. Notably as name and metaphor for the tooling that people use to weave their own Tapestries. Thinking now about (story loom)! I think the main challenge is to have a description that isn’t ambiguous and provides a reader with clarity as opposed to making them ask more questions. While also helping readers envision the new possibilities the tech and ideas open.
