StarPause is an electronic musician and producer who sells NFTs at his concerts, who's been known to conduct DAO workshops in beach cabanas. As a project manager for AstroDAO, the NEAR Protocol and founder of the arts nonprofit CODAME, he's realized that DAOs and NFTs are so easy to understand, that even a drunk person can make one. That, and DAOs are the perfect mechanisms to manage, recognize, and pay artists for work that can’t always be measured by traditional systems.
