Folklore Institute

THRESHOLD: Thank you all for the journey over the last 2 years. Folklore began in August 2019, to gather like-minded folks interested in how the internet is shaping culture around the world. Folklore crowdfunded more than ~20k USD, all of which has been used to commission new essays (8 to be exact), create an proof-of-concept community LLM chatbot called ARK ("Authentic Record of Knowledge", short for Archive), and developing a working onchain-to-RSS feed for collective curation. It has been an incubation hub, experimenting with ideas that will inevitably become common products in many other communities. And like many journeys, they often find a place to pause, and to settle. Gilbert and I will be using the remaining funds to organize the vast set of curated links and digitized books and synthesizing them into a commemorative item (likely digital). In this way, anyone can re-create ARK or continue the curation. May you be blessed by the awakening algorithmic gods.
