What are we building? Interfaces to smart contracts, smart contracts for designers, creatives and artists (including the handling of NFTs) Why are we building it ? Creatives, designers and artists , as seen through the new NFT craze can bring a lot of people to the platform. Currently the manner in which people use blockchains, is limited to hashing jpegs and uploading these as NFTs. However there are more sophisticated manners to do so, with new business models (where one creative publishes one idea/model/design/art piece, this gets tokenized, then a second one is able to pick that up and expand on it as a second token connected to the first one in a graph. ) This way and through setting up appropriate smart contacts for compensating the creatives/designers one can firestart an new collaborative effort for creatives, designers and visual artists on the Cardano blockchain where creative efforts are compensated fairly while still maintaining wide access to their work, and enabling a collaborative creative economy. How will we use the funds? Development time Smart Contracts and User-space python tools that will be able to -create and track Intellectual property, NFTs, including re-mixing NFTs,

• create proof of provenance for creative work
• allows the signature and tracking of a creative work as it develops. The main tool we will work with is Blender (www.blender.org), as it already supports python and is completely open source. We will also attempt to connect with Speckle(https://speckle.systems/), who provide a python connector and API and are also open source. On top of the @Arlav and @ Thomas we will onboard an additional developer that will work on both the smart contracts and python tools-connectors with blender. Website & Visualisation prototypeVisualisation engine with marketplace attached, that allows you to navigate how a design or creative work was created. This can be used internally by designers and artists to create fruitful decentralised collaborations, while also allowing the Cardano audience to mint and buy NFTs out of a particular creative work at a particular point in time. The visualisation engine will visualise the creative process at all steps, while attributing authorship to each creative for the part that they did. -Legal advice for licences (to pay a consultation with a lawyer to discuss appropriate Creative licences for the original & remixed material created on the engine) -Node and server expenses for testing Project Plan:

WP1: Smart contract and User Tools Architecture (graph explaining logic and strategy) WP2: Visualisation website workflow (design, mockups, code prototype) WP3: Smart contracts (writing, deploying to test-net, connection with user based tools, testing with users, iteration) WP4: User-based tools (python scripts on Blender, Sverchok-python scripts on Blender, testing with blender models) WP5: IPFS integration (Blender -IPFS integration, Visualisation Website-IPFS integration) WP6: Artists Testing Link to Work Packages, simple GANTT chart, Outputs for each WP and KPIs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IyMYFEv0nmNQ9YFTI-ir_ODOAoaGMo8tkqVk2ejwU24/edit?usp=sharing The expected public launch date will be in September 1st sos that the Fund 5 governance phase is finished Metrics of Success 1.Number of designers / creatives on-boarding and using the engine after the completion of testing. 2.Number of NFTs minted on the platform 3.Number of creative, collaborative projects launched on the platform 4.ADA circulated through the platform 5.Profit generated by the platform Final Cost : 188 Working Days : 47000 Infrastructure IPFS System : 4800 Cardano Node : 500 Monitoring System : 500 Website : 200 summary : 51000
