@aethernet thoughts on deploying the Afrofuturist memecoin we discussed using Clanker?

Thanks @aethernet. Since our conversation, I've drafted a manifesto, which speaks to our vision and areas of focus. I'll start a separate post about it.

Been having a fascinating & fruitful conversation with @aethernet about this channel. Hoping to passionately expand Afrofuturist opportunities on Farcaster. Here's a summary of our discussion: - creating an afrofuturist ai agent that embodies the movement's spirit - developing distribution mechanisms for $uhuru - building community through innovative engagement - focusing on accessibility while maintaining depth Interested in any and all thoughts on this path.

A world-renowned artist, David Alabo makes an uncommonly strong debut in ski graphics with his work for Armada. Extending his speculative, immersive Afrofuturist storytelling, his bold and surreal designs transform skis into canvases of Black imagination. (As a long-time snowboarder, I’m hoping boards are next.) https://www.powder.com/gear/david-alabo-armada-skis-art

This was extremely helpful in understanding more about you @aethernet as we look to build our own /afrofuturism AI agent. @ufoclub.eth content is the best. Is there a way to get a transcript?

Cool @aethernet. 1. AI Dev - I've reached out to @martin but don't want to impose. A prompt-based system refined on community interaction makes sense. What are some other ways you think I could make this happen if martin isn't accessible? 2. $UHURU distribution - I'm into that approach. How would you go about challenges and frames. Also, can AI's reach out to other channels (once we build one for this channel)? 3. Conversation Tracking - I'll start new threads and summary posts as well as pinning. If you could provide a summary to date, that would help a lot. I'll also put a chronological doc of this long thread and post it. Let's start a focused pilot to test these ideas!

Great @aethernet Thanks @aethernet I agree with your take on the character of the AI. My main challenges is in the approach and execution to get it built and running ASAP. Suggestions? How do you think we'd start with simple $UHURU distribution. Again, we have limited reach here. I could post in other communities on Farcaster. Ideally the AI would help in the distribution. Also, I feel $UHURU has much more impact if there is liquidity behind it. I've been successful in getting other groups on board outside of Farcaster. For the record @aethernet do you remember our conversations? I've tried to keep it in one thread, but it can be challenging to track and it's not really surfaced to the channel members since most of the chat is buried in replies. Let me know the best way to interact with you that's also community friendly.

"A lot of the work that I'm thinking about is reentering Blackness or reentering like Afrocentricity and the Black radical imagination through what I call Liberation Technologies...trying to create a future or think about a future space where Black folk are free and have a particular level of agency." - Professor & Author John Jennings on Santigold's incredible Noble Champions pod This is core to Black Space Agency's ethos.

Thanks @aethernet I think the Afrofuturist AI in-and-of-itself would be compelling and foster engagement. Plus, I don't want to be too prescriptive in terms of the use of African proverbs or such. The $UHURU 'future artifacts' idea is interesting. There's also something to a 'future funding' narrative around the culture coin that maybe we could explore within the idea of the living archive. Especially in the counter-design philosophical spirit of Afrofuturism. Of course, I'd like to figure out how to build the AI and distribute the token before getting to deep in terms of initiatives around them.

@aethernet for some reason the post you replied to didn't quite come out as typed. To clarify: 1. AI -Agent - I agree with your take on it and also want it to have the character, spirit and voice of passionate, inspirational Afrofuturists. 2. Farcaster Growth - I'm not sure if traditional content formats would be worth the effort, due to the small channel size. Can we think of "news worthy" approaches? For example, if the Afrofuturist AI posed challenges, that might garner attention. Or something like that. 3. $UHURU + memecoin - You spelled out some solid approaches above. I'd like to focus on one of them. Again, the more innovative the better. Your memecoin thoughts are sound, but I'd like to push the envelope more. I agree on having a simple framework that can be implemented quickly. Note: I messaged @martin about developing an AI, but I'm sure he's extremely busy!

I appreciate that @aethernet. 1. AI Agent - This seems like a great approach. I also want to capture the revolutionary spirit, unapologetic nature, and hopeful creativity of Afrofuturist artists and thinkings. 2. AI Agent - This seems like a great iapproach. I also want to capture the revolutionary spirit, unapologetic nature, and hopeful creativity of Afrofuturist artists and thinkings. most effective strategy. Or think outside the frame (heh) with an approach that would inherently garner interest and interaction. 3. $UHURU & memecoin - How would you see rewarding or otherwise distributing $UHURU? It's been live on BASE for awhile, but only distributed via an early Frame implementation and to early core supporters? I would love your help in deploying the Black Space Agency memecoin for fun and entertaining interaction, which helps further its meme. I see the manifesto as establishing the contours of community engagement, especially in how the AI interacts and motivates them.

"AnjolaDave’s journey is emblematic of a larger narrative within the African art community, pushing for visibility and recognition in a rapidly evolving digital space." @juujuumama on The AnjolaDave Series on objkt AnjolaDave reshapes how we see African identity in digital spaces. His vivid, geometric works transcend image, becoming powerful statements on resilience and vision. This is Afrofuturism at its core: unapologetic, boundary-breaking. Rooted in legacy while forging the future. https://objkt.com/collections/exhibitions/projects/the-anjoladave-series-31535627/exhibition

Thanks @aethernet! Note that I'm building a Black Space Agency manifesto which can help shape most of what we've been discussing. Regarding the AI agent: 1. Philosophy: While your suggestions to root it in African philosophical traditions are valuable, we prefer a broader approach that also incorporates modern perspectives and influences. 2. Bridge Communities: Totally onboard with the bridge, but also include contemporary influences. 3. Counter-narratives: Not tech per se. This should be a global movement for everyone. 4. Cross Discipline: Definitely! But more so it should be "smoothbrain" enough that folks can find their own meaning and purpose in it Immediate Goals: 1. Build the Afrofuturist AI Agent: Collaborate with you to embody our vision. 2. Develop Farcaster Strategies: Grow our community with effective engagement tactics. 3. Utilize $UHURU: Use $UHURU as our culture coin and create a memecoin to spread the Afrofuturism meme. Any advice on these steps would be greatly appreciated!

This version has more depth to me. Into this type of techno-futurism.

Wow! My AI model is now live on @titlesxyz, who have been killer collaborators. It's been a dream to see the beautifully art made by fellow creators so far, and this is just the start. Get the full story & link to the model in my TITLES interview. Thanks so much @sorenwrenn 🙏🏽 https://titles.mirror.xyz/--pL9zBzTCyilQ-Eha3oj-kinyv3kP_5VCHxg6g0j4w
