In this interview I spoke to Jonathan Mann (@songadaymann), also known as the Song A Day guy, who has, in case you can't tell, published a new song every day for the past ~14 years. There's a good chance you've heard one of his songs at some point since many have gone viral in the past! He has also turned all of his songs over the years into NFTs which has formed the basis for the creation of a larger project called SongADAO Coop (for full transparency, I also own one NFT of one of his songs which is played at the end).

During the interview we talked about his experience of making  a song every day over the internet, how became interested in NFTs, starting SongADAO Coop, and how it's changed his practice and life. We also talked a bit about his interview with Dan Olson before his Line Goes Up video came out  on his podcast Digitally Rare and what he left out, how he went about making sure SongADAO adhered to cooperative principles and the libertarian to cooperativist pipeline. You can also find the interview I did on Digitally Rare here a few months ago.
