The Archimedes' Lever developed from the Neuroscience of Ethereum (https://tinyurl.com/8m5jhmjc) during the inaugural Gitcoin Grants Decentralized Science #DeSci Round. Within the Free Energy Principle/Active Inference framework, the Archimedes’ Lever is a cybernetic Model of the World - a metaphor to help us make sense of web3. From a psychological perspective, the Archimedes’ Lever is a vision - a projection - for a prosperous future. When the Individual & Collective Psyche encounter something that appeals viscerally to a diverse audience, the unifying common denominator lies deep under the surface and beyond the apparent. Therefore, each Element symbolizes key financial primitives in addition to the various layers of meaning that are associated with them.
The themes are so far ranging that they touch upon Mythology and also the Archetypes of Order itself (this is the origin story that began to write itself when VB shared his thoughts on the 5 Ethereum dapps that need development): https://tinyurl.com/bdebdy6a
While Decentralized Science will remain a focus of this project, people first need to become aware of web3 to benefit from the Public Good infrastructure we are building.
At this time the priority is web3 Education and Community onboarding: YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwOjZxcTiY0diZBI-0yWAtQ Substack: https://substack.com/@bhau?utm_source=profile-page Hey: https://hey.xyz/u/pranav Mirror: https://mirror.xyz/bhau.eth
I plan to distribute content that can creatively demystify web3 through metaphors and analogies that can appeal to a wide-ranging audience. For those willing to take the first steps, I will help them obtain a Decentralized ID & Gitcoin Passport. At this time when an imminent Recession is very likely in the cards, End Users will also be educated about innovations in Elastic Decentralized Finance.
As the Community grows, the Archimedes’ Lever can differentiate into its own entity.
About Me: In web3 my identity is Bhau. IRL I am an MD Psychiatrist. I prefer not to bring traditional titles to this space b/c I am not proud of what they represent. Hopefully, together, we can change that for the better in web3.
