Philip Rhoades is the Exec Director of the non-profit Neural Archives Foundation (NAF).
Enlisting the support of Cardano / Catalyst gurus to help with the NAF DAO projects:
Short Version
Proposing a project to create:
- A DAO (non-profit?) to fund the construction of the NAF Research Facility (NAFRF). Cost est:
- US$2m building
- US$10m Hi-res imaging hardware (CT, MRI machines etc)
- A DAO (for-profit) for construction of more residential buildings in the Life Extension Village (site of the NAFRF).
Longer Version
- The NAF is an Australian non-profit organisation which preserves neural (brain) tissue as an historical archive and supports research into brain and neural disease states.
- The NAF is a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) and is endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) with the Australian Tax Office (ATO) from 23 February 2018.
- PR will donate the land to site the NAFRF.
- Fund the building of a NAFRF dedicated to:
- Improving technologies related to the long-term storage of neural tissue.
- The development of technologies to decode neural architecture (memories).
- The development of hi-res brain scanning technologies.
- Development of software for individual Avatar AIs for future NAF neural tissue donors.
- Development of software for Brain Computer Interfaces.
- Development of software for Mind Uploading.
- Create a non-profit DAO and issue NAFRF tokens.
- NAFRF tokens should have value as a collectibles once NAF is seen to be a disruptive force in the neuro-information / brain scanning / uploading / BCI space.
- A NAFRF token could also be redeemed for a Neural Archives or other procedures performed on a nominated persons within Australia?
- Set up a NAF Advisory Group consisting of NAFRF token holders.
Constructive feedback about how to encourage gurus to help with the project would be appreciated!
Phil.
