I know, one is supposed to continuously engage with social media. Looky all the time, posty all the time, chitty chatty with the other Kathys all the time. Well, sorry, but I’m not going to do it that way. I’m going to try to drop weekly updates in this channel.

Expect heaps of steamy hot mind morsels on the weekends moving forward. If there’s anything you’d like to hear more about, drop a comment and I’ll spill all the gore you might desire. Here goes…

Web3 newsletters & publishing.

We automatically summarize and cast about the best posts on Paragraph.

but like the kind of domination where all the men are ritualistically castrated & money doesn’t exit & the women inherit the earth. I also started a new album of music in collaboration with Curtis James Tamm, an incredible artist and long time friend, via our project called Perpeteia.

Then I went to ETH Denver. We dropped the v2 of a super powerful web3 crowdfunding tool called Yeeter with @earth2travis and @samkuhlmann, which spun out of @daohaus. We made the best tshirts of the convention, you’re welcome.

TL;DR = Yeeter summons a Moloch v3 DAO & reciprocates DAO shares to supporters which they can rage quit, adding a layer of accountability between project teams & their community. In the coming weeks we will be working with to expand these features further, supported by a generous distro from @octant via @daohaus.

I also dropped a new comic book with @owocki all about attractors & how to form your mind in relation to the gestalt of the universe. Hope you made it to the @gitcoin house to grab a super limited edition, but if not reach out & I’ll see if I can float one your way.

Inspirations picked up at the convention: nascent dialogue concerning e/acc-d/acc, alchemical whispers of how to transmogrify shitcoin evils into universal good, hyperactivation of PGF streams, refreshing perspectives on qualitative data sets in measuring impact, a return of truth in decen journalism...

I’m currently working on a deep research initiative, CCR: Creatooor Collectooor Reciprocity. We are exploring the current state of creator-centered economies in web3, leveraging elements connecting some dots between onchain governance & IP, carefully gestating some big ideas about autopoietic economic organisms.

I’m remembering & reviewing lots of incredible articles from @zine, @fwb editorials, @metalabel, and others, including some review of @storyprotocol, @fabric, @juicebox, @partydao, & many others. If you have an recommendations related to this topic, please send them my way & I will ravenously devour them this week.

It has been a dream of mine to steward an artist-in-residence program for many years. I’ve begun collecting highly aligned peers into a group to help ideate the project. It’s called T.E.A.R.S. = Three Ears Attenuation Residency Site.

TEARS will bring together some of the incredible people from my music, art, & philosophy circles to interface with the web3 builders addressing the most pertinent & prescient problems of the moment. If you are interested in jumping into the core of this white hot dot of luminous inspiration, send me a DM.

As if this wasn’t enough for you to mull over already, I have a new artistic project beginning to incubate. I started writing an experimental opera circa 2015, affectionately known as An Opera Of/For Known & Unknowable Un-I-Verses, & I have now begun to push this epic consuming work to take it to its next phase.

These details are too chocolatey rich to unfurl in this tight space, but what I can mention is in the coming months I will be remastering some visual artworks & keystone writings that set the context for the opera while writing a proposal to a fellowship program that will help support the next phase of development.

There are numerous artifacts from the Overture (a 1000+ page tome of written documents) & the Prologue (a live music performance that we toured around Iceland) & Act I (an album of piano music & accompanying libretto that was never fully actualized) that I will be releasing as NFTs.

These activities will remind me to remember to remember the fading members of recent past & take steps towards the next steps of the infinite regress of what steps might yet be stepped. You’re probably not ready for this, but I’ll share updates anyways, as they emerge.

I’m going to Japan later this month to sit zazen amongst ancient stones & sip matcha tones, slurp miso, & hunt for musical instruments. I will try to take pictures & notes of this experience to share in this channel, but I make no promises as some of life’s beauties should remain deliciously private & invisible.

In April, I’m going to build some shit, like with wood, & will share that too, maybe. I have an epic roadmap that extends until the end of the year with numerous IRL events & research initiatives peppering the path. But for now, you’ve received enough.

If you are excited by these updates, please consider subscribing to my @hypersub and @paragraph, collecting my artworks on @zora, listening to my music on @catalog, sending me messages complaining about my walls of text, or otherwise signaling that these messages are welcomed and should continue.

As always, thank you for your careful attention & precious time. Until next week, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. xoxo - TW

Last week I set up all my shit. I have a new website, dropped an album on @catalog, dropped a series of visual artworks on @zora, setup my @paragraph & synced all the old Death Dialogues & Pluriverse content, sent out the first newsletter I ever wrote, and made a master plan for world domination…
