Edit: Jesus your support has been unreal in the form of up-votes whoever has up-voted or re-steemed I seriously thank you I'm not made of money but I am dedicated and attempting to put a pay cheque on this so here go's nothing ;) but seriously comment any thoughts, feelings or opinions and I will respond to every single one of you!
What started off as a students project, has turned into a real promotional and demonstrative event of the potential and life changing projects this platform has to create, the amount of people that told me on the night that they would look into creating an account, wealthy individuals (I mean I assume they were wealthy ) saying that from an investment stand point it seemed solid. To see little kids playing in the box, having fun laughing was an amazingly beautiful experience for me, and to know that the roughly 150odd people that came that night were exposed even for a second to the wondrous potential of this platform (there were signs up talking about STEEM at the entrance) warms my heart more than the sun. THIS HAPPENS AS THE FIRST DLIVE MEET UP HAPPENS PEOPLE GO CHECK THE HISTORY BEING MADE OVER @ DLIVE IN NYC! - https://steemit.com/dlive/@wa7/dlive-first-official-meetup-may-18th-2018-in-nyc
My name is Harold (everyone seems to call me Bostock though) and I’m a 19 year old working class blockchain addict that at the tender age of 13 was exposed to the raw power of this technology in the summer of 2014 and quite an advanced child if I say so myself, computer wise at-least (tried to run a bitminter node on an old dell inspiron, couldn’t get it to work could you imagine if I did) but the U.K. education system calls and the woes of GCSE’s and the like distracted me from actually setting it up lol .
Anyway enough about me, your here for this, this is four months worth of literal blood sweat and tears, staying up till 4AM talking to the amazing people over at the DLive discord channel, my friends and my family.
I originally envisioned this to be a tesseract, a four dimensional object that exists in a higher plane than us, that allows the observer to view unseen aspects of the world. It evolved after the a time to eventually become the worlds first ever blockchain based, live-streamed, interactive and decentralised living art installation. This is not only a cool face value installation that uses vintage software and modern remnants of modern internet culture projected onto a tesseract frame, but a real chance for the hundred or so people that are coming tonight ( or have come if your reading this after the stream, don’t worry it is a week long deal you’ll have plenty of chances to catch live in the flesh. but do watch this one as it is the official launch and will gain the most traction, you can see a real life use case not just for DLive, but for Steem in general, completely obliterating any walls to distributing art across the entire world. I will be walking about amongst overs and also hovering near and checking on the live-stream answering questions and will be plugging Steem and DLive into every orifice I can find. Sorry that sounds quite grim doesn’t it. But seriously though I’m optimistic for turn out, some influential people and papers will be here and at the very least I want to say that I am genuinely happy with the finished result.
I will do a follow up post soon, examining results and if anyone would love to resteem, share on any non steem social media etc that would be amazing, as although I did do this for the blockchain world, I don't have the means to get this out there despite it being the first of its kind due to money constraints so any help is much much appreciated!! I will try my absolute hardest to get this to trending, but this is part of a more co-ordinated promotional effort by me for the whole blockchain (which i'll talk about in the next post). #ocd-resteem
