Answer: DrMints#9237 asked why a proposal mentioned funding through grants and retro funding. Noun 22#2222 explained that the person needed a specific USD amount, so they sent extra ETH to Small Grants to account for volatility and then sent the precise amount of ETH 7+ days later after the proposal passed and was executed. | |||

<@881315476163141642> Hi could you support my development of AR-filters for SNS platforms? My version of Nouns-AR-filter on Instagram is getting momentum. You can see filter here https://www.instagram.com/ar/702277330935834/. You might have seen the filter in Sounds-of-Nouns jingles. --If NounsDAO decides to support this then:-1) I want to use some of the ETH to run community competitions to get more people share photos with AR-glasses on instagram-2) and make snapchat version of the filter.--Any amount of ETH would be appreciated. Many thanks
Nouns DAO decided to support the development of AR-filters for SNS platforms. They sent over 0.69420 ETH as a retroactive reward to fiveoceans_dev#5450 for their work on the Nouns-AR-filter on Instagram. They also expressed interest in funding the development of AR filters if fiveoceans_dev can bring something differentiated to what they already have.

<@!881315476163141642> How does one apply for retro funding?
There is no real application process for retro funding. Instead, you can share your ideas or what you have built with the community, and if it is something that proliferates nouns, it may qualify for funding.

<@!881315476163141642> what's the procedure behind retrofunding? Wasn't expecting that but certainly is welcomed. As the nouns ecosystem grows I'll keep adding updates to the app.
The procedure behind retrofunding in the Nouns DAO is not set in stone, but they look to reward things that members think are cool. In this case, small grants rewarded Alex with 0.69 ETH for his contributions.

<@887388323730042991> and <@529650701102481439> could you provide some insight into what topics you will cover on panels and how Nouns will be included?
Will#4129: Thanks <@497119763286196225>! Since a panel discussion is included in the event sponsorship, our team would love to shine a spotlight on Prop 70, the concept of story foundations, and how Nouns is at the forefront of the Film3 movement (not only with 70, but also 29, 32, and 53).--Our group of writers (members from teams 1 and 2) will be available to speak at the event, and we would love to bring other writers from Prop 70 on stage. We can talk about the intersection of decentralization and the media industry using Prop 70 as a lens to talk about the future of entertainment. And because this event is the epicenter of the Film3 movement, we’re excited to generate buzz about the work Prop 70 teams are doing and Noun’s overall role in this artistic movement.--Garfield#9628: Hi <@881315476163141642> ! Just adding to what <@529650701102481439> has above, MiguelFaus, the filmmaker behind Calladita which is at the heart of Prop 53 will also be at the event, and it will be an opportunity to feature Nouns in the context of the work that he's doing. Ultimately, it's a chance for Nouns/NounsDAO to really establish itself at the center of this movement towards decentralized storytelling. There will be press there, and with a strong Nouns presence as the only CC0 project in the space, its a chance to leverage all that's happening in Film3 and really put a Nounish spin on it. In many ways, Nouns are the ones pushing the envelope of what's possible with decentralized storytelling, and this is a change to get the word out beyond the web3 community.

Appreciate the quick response!--for 1 & 2 - what I'm mostly looking for is articles I can share on Twitter, key highlights I can use as talking points when speaking about Nouns, marketing bits we can pull from all this activity. There's so much going on to celebrate! Like, if Nouns.wtf had a press release section, I would definitely want a wrap-up article of the luxury sunglasses titled Do You Believe?-3 - Understandable, and I don't really want to cast stones at projects or label them as failures, moreso I want to preserve lessons learned and try to share those lessons across Nouns.-4 - I totally agree that having the committee operate more on intuition right now is working quite well, and honestly could be a strong way to operate in the long term too. I think, rather than guidelines or rules, I'm hoping for documentation of the intuition so whatever you're learning can translate to other groups in Nouns. No major rush on this one, and maybe it takes a few more cycles before you even want to communicate all of this, but it would be insight I'd love to read at some point.
For articles and key highlights to share on Twitter and talking points about Nouns, you can refer to the Nouns Grants Twitter account (https://twitter.com/NounsGrants) and the newsletters mentioned by Noun 22#2222. They are working on improving the distribution of information, and they acknowledge that more people should know how easy it is to get funded to work on the project. Noun 22#2222 also mentioned that they are inspired to write out some lessons from the last 6 months and try to map out their vision for the future.

Curious if there could be a SG Prop.House that could be created where anything under 3ETH gets funded at a certain threshold. Say 2x Quorum? ie 80 Nouns vote FOR funding and it's automatically approved
Having 80 Nouns vote on individual small stuff doesn't scale since getting that level of interest/attention is only possible for bigger proposals. At a smaller scale, there is the prop house that can get a lot of attention for a large, but not unlimited, number of prizes. Prop house captures and channels attention into rounds. Alternatively, small grants can be used, in which a few people decide to fund stuff without needing everyone to weigh in.

Discourse link doesn’t work!--What would you do with the carpets once they were finished?
The carpets would be used in various ways after they are finished. One carpet would be given away via lottery to the NounsDAO community, and the second would be put up for auction. If there is a lot of interest, they could explore schemes to deliver the carpets to a wider audience, such as offering special discounts or giving carpets as gifts to important Nouns members or public figures.

Does the GDA asymptote if no one bids?
Yes, if no one is interested in buying these nouns, the price will go to zero until people start picking them up. The rate of increasing price and decreasing is controlled by an algorithm.

Do you need to own a Noun to apply for a small grant?

haha very cool - so what did <@128249158657114112> do here? are those the salvino glasses?
The glasses were manufactured and distributed by motivateme#2938 on their own. The cost to make the glasses and other details were not provided in the conversation, but motivateme#2938 mentioned they would get that information later.

Hey everybody! My name is Mike, I’m an artist from Russia. Recently I finally got invited to https://foundation.app, an invite-only NFT platform. I’ve been thinking about a space theme artwork with the NOUN glasses(I’d share it here when it’s finished). I have a question, as far as you’re supporting the artists who are popularizing the Nouns, would it be possible for the team to cover the minting+listing costs? Because these prices nowadays are enormous and I simply can’t afford it😑 It would really mean a lot to me!-Waiting for the response-Be safe!
Yes, the Nouns DAO team agreed to cover the minting and listing costs for Mike Gavrilov's artwork. Noun 22#2222 confirmed that they would fund reasonable gas fees to get the artwork published. Mike provided his wallet address, and the funds were transferred to him. Additionally, they agreed on a 30/70 split auction, where 30% of the funds received for the work would be sent to the small grants and retro funding ETH address.
