4/ I got to pursue this
@Episode
where we built a storytelling platform for smartphones.
I worked with legends like
@KiwiLovesYou
(Legally Blonde) and on IPs like
@MeanGirls
, but also with elite engineers.
The lesson: only with creative & tech together can innovation be found.

2/ My great joy in life is the pursuit of beautiful creative work.
From writing my first story at age 7 (a 1-page ripoff of Aladdin) to collaborating with some of the finest talents in the world, I've come to revere those who build art and the way that art sneaks into our souls.

6/ The answer, we found, was simple: crypto projects give contributors real ownership. Participants earn skin in the game. So folks don’t just watch; they dream, build, and evangelize.
And just as importantly: they do so as communities.
They strive toward a common goal.

14/ Thank you also to our advisor, the legendary David Goyer – screenwriter of THE DARK KNIGHT trilogy, writer and director of the BLADE trilogy, and showrunner of
@Foundation_
on Apple TV+
We could not imagine a better collaborator.

11/ Our protocol does 2 things:
1/ It captures the IP of a creative work (a story, a drawing, or even a full franchise) on the blockchain
2/ It lets people contribute to that work –– and earn ownership
It's a way for the creative community to pull in the same direction

7/ This insight went beyond marketing. It extended to the core challenge of the creative space today:
👉How do we unleash the creative power of the world? How do we take advantage of the internet age?
Smartphones led to a boom of creativity. Crypto could spark an avalanche🏔️

5/ I met
@storysylee
soon after
We discussed how hard it is these days for creatives to break through the noise. And we were intrigued by a phenomenon in another corner of the tech world: crypto
Those projects were flourishing with almost no marketing at all. How could that be?

12/ We can’t wait to showcase this in the near future. And in the meantime, we’re cultivating an ecosystem of developers to build functionality that we can’t imagine.
Together we’ll help the entertainment space harness the breakthroughs of the internet age.

8/ Indeed, the foremost movement in entertainment is people building together at scale.
From remixes on
@YouTube
and
@tiktok_us
to the shared universes in
@Roblox
to the modding community in gaming (DotA, Counter-Strike, to name a few), we live in an age of co-creation.

9/ But our IP system can’t keep up.
When anyone can build, building happens fast, by many people, and across many platforms.
Folks can’t use lawyers for this, negotiating 1:1. It’s impossible.

10/ So true collaboration is rare.
Creators fend for themselves with little mechanism to rally together. And what should be the greatest explosion of valuable content in history has a lid on the pot.
Story Protocol aims to fix that.

The glass bridge in
#SquidGames
.
Some panels hold firm. Others shatter. You don’t know which until you step.
The crypto journey is like the bridge. Ahead of us –– those who forged the path. Behind –– those who will learn from us.
Either way, we all brave the same trek.

+1 to LoTR and D&D. I'd even argue they're in the same thread, LoTR -> D&D, etc.
Also Star Wars -> Eve and Marvel Comics -> Marvel Films.
Avatar is next. The sequels will inspire breakthroughs into VR / metaverse

What's tricky for me is that the AI work has no artist intent at all (aside from the prompt that catalyzed it). And yet, the work might be spectacular.
