MARMA J CON has come to an end, and our team is very happy about the local and international attendance of the audience, participants and speakers. If you missed MARMA J CON IRL, we have you covered! As part of our Conference programming, we’ve included a set of Virtual Programming that showcases various projects, presentations, and interviews that lives in the metaverse! For anyone who has attended MARMA J CON or for anyone who could not join us in person, we have online content for you to enjoy.
Our Virtual Programming exists to extend the reach of MARMA J CON, and inspire and educate future developers and Web3 newcomers. We are very happy to say that more than 50% of our Virtual Programming leads are female speakers!
With special thanks to the NEAR Hub team, the MARMA J CON Virtual Programming is available in the Marma J Foundation’s new and improved Marma J Beach! You can enter the Marma J Beach for FREE via a desktop computer or mobile device.
Virtual Programming Lineup
Interested in our MARMA J CON Virtual Programming lineup? Let’s have a look at what you can expect!
Amber Stone – Minting Music
Understand the utility of NFTs, specifically in the music industry. Minting Music is a DAO on NEAR that is onboarding musicians and musical entities. NFTs can be used in licensing, crowdfunding, and catalogue management as well as to create a better and more direct experience for the fans. And those are just a few examples out of many. Have a look at how Minting Music is supporting artists through Web3 technology by visiting Minting Music.
Phoenix Guild
In the current Web3 ecosystem, less than 10% of the builders are women or non-binary. The Phoenix Guild is here to change that! The members of this guild set themselves the task of onboarding more female and non-binary builders through mentoring and education, inclusive events, providing job opportunities and even setting up regional hubs and universities.
In this presentation, you’ll receive an introduction to RUST to get your builder capacities activated! Make sure to follow Phoenix Guild for more events and workshops.
Tabea – muti
Tabea is presenting muti, a Sub-DAO of the Marma J Foundation, as well as a cultural association based in Portugal. The DAO and collective supports artists of all art forms runs physical events and residencies and uses blockchain technology to empower creators. muti has been working with the Marma J Foundation for over one year on creative bounties and educational content. Because we all know that education is key!
For more info and upcoming events, you can visit the muti website.
Jeff Gold – NEAR Hub
In this interview, the Founder of NEAR Hub, Jeff Gold, explains how he entered the Web3 space and why he decided to create a portal to NEAR in the shape of a Metaverse. As Marma J Foundation has been one of the first DAOs to receive their own Metaverse on NEAR through the help of NEAR Hub, both have been working closely together for several events.
This interview takes place in the Metaverse. If you got curious and would like to see more virtual spaces, check out the other NEAR Hub experiences that Jeff and his team have created.
Didier Pironi – Pikespeak
This is your chance to get a sneak preview of Pikespeak, a tool that lets you enter the depths of the NEAR on-chain analytics. The project launched in the summer of 2022 and provides not only live but also historical on-chain data incl. visualizations for NFTs, DAOs, Gaming as well as DeFi. It has received support from NEAR co-founder Illia Polosukhin and will integrate Aurora and Ethereum this year. Chloe herself already gave it a go and has documented the journey on her YouTube channel.
