The address which minted this POAP participated in the KZG Summoning Ceremony: a publicly coordinated ritual to produce a random output. This output will be used in Proto-Danksharding, aka EIP 4844: an Ethereum scaling mechanism which will hopefully enable lower Layer 2 fees and greater global accessibility. EIP-4844 is expected to go live with the Dencun network upgrade in the near future. As of the time of writing, this ceremony was the largest setup of this kind when considering the number of contributions.

From February 7-11, Portion will be featuring an exclusive collection, curated by DarkMythst, highlighting a range of artists exploring Afrofuturism and alternate realities through a Black cultural lens. What is Afrofuturism? Afrofuturism is a creative way of articulating the future through the lens of the African diaspora. It is a cultural movement that reimagines the history of the African diaspora through science fiction and technology with a hopeful future in which the community thrives as technically advanced. It is expressed via a wide range of practices, such as art, cinema, literature, music, fashion, etc. Imagine an alien race coming to earth, and telling the afropopulation that they felt empathy to the treatment they have faced for centuries, and decided to take them all out of Earth and to another world where everybody was treated equally, where racism and discrimination never existed. What might that world look like? Many couldn't tell you, because both history and current times have only shown hardship. The imagination of the futurist is an amazing blueprint of a wish to finally depart from the history and memories that have been experienced and inherited, and to finally be a part of an equally inclusive world. Afrofuturism encapsulates stories of mysticism, cosmology, technology, and fantasy. It can be represented by any form of creativity. Afrofuturists are a community of artists that plant the seed of hope, and seek to inspire others to use positive alternatives to creating a more meaningful and inclusive future. It's a way of thinking and drawing up an illusion that has not been a reality for the African and diaspora, and the goal is to break the stereotype and build on the cinematic vision of a promising future of inclusiveness and diversity. How does it play into NFTs? ...By creating a record in time in which Afrofuturists became part of the arts, science, technology, and modern day CryptoArt and blockchain technology. Being a part of the NFT space already means that creators are far ahead. By being here early, Afrofuturists bring something valuable to the space - Creativity, culture, science fiction, and imagination from their perspective. Meet the Curator: DarkMythst DarkMythst is an Afrocosmic/Afrofuturist artist from Ghana, residing in California. He has been an artist his whole life, starting from traditional painting and sculpting, to currently digital painting and 3D modeling. Some highlights of his career include working on Hollywood Blockbusters consisting of several Marvel films, GI Joe, SpongeBob and more as a visual effects artist and team lead. Creating worlds, characters and stories through form has always been a leading inspiration for DarkMythst, with NFTs giving him the opportunity to explore this further. DarkMythst’s art is a fusion of mythology, fantasy, cosmology, and science fiction, inspired by his Ghanaian roots and other regions of inspiration. He considers himself a generalist - exploring digital sculptor, environment and visual effects arts. DarkMythst’s goal is to inspire and leave a legacy as a representation for the future.

Born in Brindisi, Italy, Francesco aka Mr. Swe developed a love for music at a very young age. His journey began while listening to his father's vinyl, cassettes, and cds. At the age of 12, Francesco got closer to the DJ world through friends of his parents–they helped him step up and put the first vinyl down of the night at a party. From there, his passion for music grew. His first interests in music were primarily in reggae, but soon after his love for hip-hop culture grew. Francesco later started MCing in dancehalls and underground parties with various artists and collectives such as, "Dancehall Terrorists Crew.” Around the same time, Francesco started to produce music from his small garage-based studio. His love for Hip-hop, dub, and experimental music, became the main production focus. Mr. Swe fuses his sound through different software and hardware, while maintaining a love for the world of sampling and experimental synths that hit the left-field bracket of imagination. Mr. Swe currently resides in Mexico and continues to push his music into new territory with a fusion of deep rooted hip-hop, combined with elements of reggae and experimental synthesis. Mr.Swe is giving away x10 copies of his Audio NFT "All About Stars"
