New essay in which I: - introduce myself and Forms of Incubation, my new project - explain why I’m leaving Substack - say nice things about @farcaster, @paragraph, and @undefined - link to a lot of casters (this IS a scenius...) https://paragraph.xyz/@danicaswanson/scenius-incubation-open-source-creative-processes

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this with my coffee this morning (the dogs had to wait!). I resonate with it all, and think this especially is the nut to crack: "Make unseen labor (including "scenius labor") visible, and help contextualize it."

Happy to hear it resonated so well! (Tell the dogs I said thanks for their patience). If you'd like to say more, I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on making unseen labor visible and properly contextualizing it. I suspect it will be a tough nut to crack, and as I wrote in the piece, we need all hands on deck.

It is a tough nut! I was briefly part of a community wanting to set up a 'value exchange' platform/protocol (?) to capture the unpaid value that occurs within the startup ecosystem. So, intros, pitch reviews all things that people do just because they are helpful, but value doesn't come back for that specific work.

Got me thinking about' rewarding or at least scoring this sort of thing. Even if just reputation or if people could "see" the helping more clearly - and happily contributed to the total = so you might not help the same person who helped you, but help someone else within the 'circle'. Earn points....🤷♀️
