[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.
This grant proposal is to continue a project that has already been creating art, instrumentals persistently providing new upcoming artists with instrumentals and visuals for their music - the tools necessary to be seen and heard. This funding will extend our ability to invest time in creating and supplying music to new artists and organizations. Being able to have the resources and time available to extend outreach is crucial
[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
Due to the independent ouroboros like nature of our work we are constantly reaching out to new artists on all platforms - every Artist we come in contact with will be introduced to Cardano - we will offer deals that include CNFTS. Potentially in the future when we onboard enough artists we’ll start a stake pool with music nft deals/rewards for delegators to opt in to
[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
The main risks are that we are not able to invest the amount of resources and time necessary to achieve our goal - this proposal is proof of the steps we are taking to mitigate the risk of that
[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.
Q1-Q4 : Persistently evolve in efficiency and contact new artists to fuel them with art music instrumentals and the idea of Cardano
