Lil Nouns DAO

THS IS ME!

I’m Anesi, an artist whose musical journey began at 12. I’ve spent several years blending gospel, pop-rock, amapiano, soul, and acappella, finding my self as an artist, while pioneering “CREATIVE ALCHEMY” a decentralized community of creatives for creatives and by creatives (here’s a link to view more: https://linktr.ee/creative_alchemy). (https://linktr.ee/creative_alchemy) I started my journey building in the nouniverse with the “artist program” which gave me room to express myself in my most authentic way through “ACAPELLA MUSIC”. while i was at the program, I created an acapella musical body of work here’s a link to check em out🔗⚡️ 🔗link1: https://zora.co/collect/base:0x7d958776cb5355bfe7737b55ae1cf8a5af2ab8be/53?referrer=0xea4d9a7c7d27dd6561f5c0e33303c46397700a5f 🔗 link2: https://zora.co/collect/base:0x7d874efe17283cc0029427dcf5804dd6a9d87ba5/1?referrer=0xea4d9a7c7d27dd6561f5c0e33303c46397700a5f It was after I was done with this project that I did fully understood the NOUNS DAO goals in prioritizing community first, public good, and the mindset of providing value first before asking for support which inspired me in many ways. Also through creative alchemy, we’ve created several nounish meetups, where we’ve onboarded creatives & educated them on nouns dao and how best they can contribute Here’s some links to our previous nounish meetups: 🔗 link1: https://x.com/creativealch3my/status/1894847612106191089?s=46 🔗 link2: https://warpcast.com/creativealchemy/0x51b04be1 Through flows I’ve also created educational videos about nouns during my live musical sessions called “noggles and notes”.
