Next Step Microgrant: Exploring Modular Information Design in the Filecoin Network

[superdotTech]

We at Superdot.studio, a Swiss agency known for its pioneering work in information design and visualization, are pleased to propose to you a collaborative project aimed at harnessing the power of modular information design in the Filecoin ecosystem. Our project aims to initiate a research phase, funded by a micro-grant, to explore and identify opportunities where our expertise can significantly improve understanding, accessibility and usability across the Filecoin network.

Background and expertise

Superdot.studio specializes in translating complex issues into clear, understandable visual narratives. Our work, best known for our award-winning book "Visualizing Complexity", focuses on empowering people by making complicated concepts accessible. We believe that the fundamental principles of blockchain and decentralized storage, like those underlying Filecoin, have enormous potential for societal impact, but are often hindered by their inherent complexity.

Project vision

Our vision is to demystify the intricate workings of the Filecoin network through innovative visualizations and make it accessible to a wider audience. By applying our modular information design approach, we aim to break down complex concepts into understandable modules to foster deeper understanding and engagement among users, developers and stakeholders.

Why a Micro Grant?

A micro grant would enable us to dedicate time and resources to this exploratory phase, laying the groundwork for a comprehensive strategy to develop and implement visual tools and resources. This phase is crucial for ensuring that our subsequent efforts are aligned with the community's needs and can provide tangible benefits to the Filecoin network.

Thank you for considering our application. We are eager to discuss this proposal further and answer any questions you may have.

Best regards, Darjan Hil from Superdot
