‘Contemplating Life’ by Kylo Hemmingway
Wait, it gets better. The 5 winners, one for each category listed below, will be recognized from
the stage of the US Capitol. Winners need not be present to win, however, being awarded a trophy from the stage of the US Capitol is an experience like no other.
Unfortunately, there is one major deterrent to artists submitting their work. It’s blockchain.
As I mentioned, there will be 5 winners from 5 categories. They are:
1) Creativity/Originality. How innovative is this idea?
2) Practicality. Could this idea work?
3) Helpful/ Humanity. Does this idea help anyone?
4) Involvement. Is the artist involved in the deployment of this project?
5) Visual appeal. How pleasing is the image to behold?
These 5 categories must all relate to a blockchain connection.
So, how can blockchain translate into an image?
Here are some suggestions:
– Land Titling: Many poor farmers and landowners in 3rd world countries do not have secure titles to their land, even after generations. Blockchain records could secure their claims.
– Fair Trade: Irreputable practices govern coffee, chocolate, and rice harvesting. Blockchain records can track the supply chain, eliminating deception.
– Cannabis: Many states rely on cryptocurrency for their dispensaries since the US dollar cannot be used for cannabis.
– Others: Healthcare. Artificial Intelligence. Banking. Aviation, Cybersecurity, Education, and more. For a list of Blockchain applications, check out GBA Working Group List (https://www.gbaglobal.org/working-groups/).
Submissions open until August 15. Don’t hesitate. Submit your work today.
