Thanks to everyone who submitted to the Future of Money AI Film Contest, and to @bitcoinfilmfest and @MoneroKon for making it happen. The films are in and I can't wait to watch them.
Bitcoin FilmFest opens in Warsaw in three days, with winners announced onstage Sunday. If you'll be there, come find me.
I couldn't enter my own contest, but here's what the prompt inspired: a short film about Hesse's Glass Bead Game, Satoshi, and @ordainart.

Ordain exists to put money in the hands of people making things. In Warsaw I watched that happen for the first of what I hope will be many times.
Huge thanks to everyone at @bitcoinfilmfest.

I think Satoshi was playing Hermann Hesse's Glass Bead Game.
In the novel, mastery is synthesis: setting a Bach fugue, a proof, and a ritual turning around one another. Satoshi did that with cryptography, Austrian economics, and game theory.
Short film on where this all leads.

If you can build a protocol for monetary consensus, can you build one for artistic consensus?
The @ordainart thesis says yes.

Who holds power, and why? How are rules made, broken, and remade? Imagine government not as it is, but as it could be.
