RE: STEEMTOWN : Building The Internet’s First Small Town
This is a super creative idea @voronoi! I'm honored to have been chosen to be in the first generation. I think we need an open-air marketplace where we buy everything from fresh produce to art with Steem. : ) Wouldn't it be amazing if we turned this into a virtual world with V.R. (like Second Life - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Life)? This way we could actually circulate Steem.
Great work, what an abstract and dynamic way to integrate and build a community, I love it!! It's requiring my mind to stretch around the concept and practical application. Very cool. I really like @ericvancewalton's note that most of our goods and services could potentially be bought and sold through steemit. And I too am very honored to be a part of the first generation!
Thank you for such kind feedback @natureofbeing! My hope is that this project becomes an architecturally messy testbed of ideas. Almost like a visual sounding-board for Steemit as our community grows. To address concept / practice... I think this kind of conceptual strategy of feedback-based-designing could be an interesting model to try in real life. (Mike and I are hashing out some ideas for this!) Anyway, 2017 will be very interesting... thanks again for being part of Steemtown's gen.1!
Thank you so much @ericvancewalton! This is a fantastic idea. We are in dire need of a marketplace for trading resources in Steemtown! Also, a VR environment for exploring architecture and furthering the steem-economy would be amazing. A couple of folks have expressed the same interest. This past year, I've been trying to teach myself some Augmented Reality software with the hopes of integrating 3D modeling experiments in a human scale world... very curious to see what 2017 yields...
You're welcome, @voronoi! I'm going to really enjoy seeing how this all unfolds!
