About
Beautiful Money invites creators, wanderers, and those often overlooked to an economy of presence and play. 240+ teeny tiny hand-painted tokens reveal hidden value in kindness and attention. Tokens unlock a special Dayvan culture reading.
Impact
Reprograms how we think about wealth (instead of optimising for extraction), honours creativity & mutual resonance, brings dignity to unseen labor. The groundwork for a cultural framework that helps us better relate to AI agents and digital systems.
Progress
✧ Made 240+ art tokens, 50+ gifted at 5 events in 3 cities ✧ Developing Aesthetic Realms, a cultural framework for post-platform AI (Q4) ✧ Launched Tactile Theory (craft meets Web3) ✧ Host Cyber Somatics -- sessions on presence & data
Team
For 8+ years I’ve cross-pollinated Web3, regenerative, and underground culture. Hosting, sensing, guiding at the edge. Beautiful Money is my refusal of invisibility: a way to value the cultural, intuitive, and lovingly made (and let it circulate).

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
