    About this Episode

    This episode of #StoryFirst is the first installment in what will become an ongoing series of podcasts featuring recordings of Twitter Spaces produced in collaboration with various luminaries in the NFT world. 

    Conducted in conjunction with a unique NFT collaboration between Legends of Cypher and Bankless DAO, this conversation features Crypto Bushi, the artist behind the popular DAOpunks collection. DAOpunks' "mission is to enable humans to liberate themselves from the soul-sucking drudgery of default world work and lead them to the rewarding, expansive freedom found in meaningful DAO work." CryptoBushi is also a member of Bankless DAO. 

    During this conversation, Devin Sawyer, James Deveron and Crypto Bushi talk:
    - The origins of StoryPrima DAO
    - The importance of storytelling in Web3
    - Taking the plunge: Leaving full-time employment to become a Web3 creative 
    - Decentralized versus centralized story-building
