Hi,
Apologies.. Perhaps the text wasn't clear enough.. I did watch the film. The
points raised were intended to link with the less glairy eyed ideas. Points
which seemed, in that context, relevant. Obviously, that wasn't clear enough in
the text..
Going back to the name.. Is it intentionally kinda similar to naomi klein's
book: "this changes everything"?
Cheers and all the best!

Thank you all for your generous attention. Much appreciated as always.
Annie, the relentlessness of the visual and audio flow of the film are an
intentional rhyming with (our sense of) the cultures surrounding blockchain at
the moment. The information and meaning(s) can be extracted by repeated viewing.
Aharon, have you watched the film? You bring up interesting points. The title
is not intended as a literal command.
Rob, glad you like the LARP idea, cos we may come to you for some advice on the
DAO templating; )
I will post the transcript in a separate mail.

Ben Vickers and I are going to be running a LARP (Live Action Role

building paper-based Dapps and DAOs (blockchain based apps and organisations)
for a fictional good cause and thinking about all the asymmetries of power at
play- should be fun. We'd love it if NBers wanted to sign up and participate.
Hey that's awesome. :-)
Finally, I just want to be clear. We are NOT blockchain evangelists. I
personally have a bad feeling about this technology. But I also know that it's
here and that more diverse people need to get into the middle of its
development to feel its strangeness and scope.
I think that's a good way to be. The blockchain is only a teletype or
an email server, but look at what past art movements did with those, both in
terms of social organization and political critique. - Rob.
