Where to start?

@elarca is a project born from the need to promote art and create a space that will serve to consolidate the spread of them in the community of users of Steemit.

In first instance this project is proposed by @zaxan based on a student movement of his university: at that time the goal was to create" something" that would act as a voice for the whole community of artists who lived there, however, it was not able to reach a complete consensus and after a couple of months it ended up filling up with dust in a drawer. Almost a year later, the project is being reformulated to bring it to the users who come to life on the platform. It was necessary - we couldn't let something like this die. —

We believe in the work of each and every one of the people we meet every day, as we get involved in this platform and we know that it isn't easy to be an artist in the 21st century.

You can create content, you can develop a vision of your own art, but then what?

It is a somewhat difficult but not impossible idea, which is why the development of " The Ark " will seek to function in such a way as a creative impulse for all the artists who read us, always from the point of view of coexistence and mutual learning.

Now, who is @zaxan? Why make this space?

My name is José Carlos Ocanto Serrano, I am known as @zaxan both in the blockchain, social networks and in life away from the keyboard. I'm from Venezuela and I'm 23 years old. I'm a student of Audiovisuals with a degree in "Editing and Post Production". I am a dreamer, traveler and nature lover. I've always been part of projects and even more when they involve art, unfortunately many of them have been cancelled because of the situation in Venezuela. However, I believe that this was the time and place to carry out one of my own.

I came to Steemit more than a month ago, and I have been surrounded by great people who have supported me in my growth since the beginning and have trusted my work as an artist. I must thank the @cervantes team first hand, because without them I don't think I would have met so many people in the Spanish-speaking community and that's something I'll never forget. Again, thank you.

And at the end of this self-presentation I would like to invite you to a Review of what the " The Ark " project will be.”

THE ARK

A meeting Archivos para Preview-25.png

It has been seen in various communities how they work on behalf of all users to reward their work at Steemit, but at the same time we see how very few of these users are the ones who interact in the communities. The Ark, on the other hand, has been conceived since its creation as a meeting place for steemians, a space where you not only expect to be approached in one way or another by receiving a vote for your content, but also have the possibility of being rewarded in a more symbolic way. In other words, socializing, promoting content from other users, learning and sharing your skills and knowledge can lead you to grow as a person and artist in this community.

Steemit can be seen as a space for learning. It doesn't matter who or why you want to do it, but we always know people willing to offer their knowledge to the users, in this case we will try to bring artists of different kinds who can express and carry out their activities and their diffusion beyond the plain text. We have beautiful tools that can be used for this purpose that have made the communities and their users grow.

A space for you Archivos para Preview-27.png

The Ark has a space in Discord dedicated to attending, promoting and carrying out these activities in a server of free coexistence, always based on respect and tolerance. We want users to dialogue, get to know each other, learn from each other and in turn learn from the experiences that the team will bring to them.
The arts are a vast world that evolves every day and is transformed more and more, we hope that this venue will serve to unite them all and that each of the users who make life in this ark feel free to express themselves and be great creative minds.

Ramiro Pinto, an excellent writer, shares in his personal blog the following article on the subject:

"In a troubled world in which we live, a global society full of conflicts and in the face of the need for new answers, new questions, is being formed and is missing the vision of artists, a thought from art, debates on new thought models. They may exist, but they are not perceived as a social burden.

The blindness in which we are immersed allows information to be fabricated without us questioning it, they manage to fabricate a reality into which we are psychologically immersed. Pacifist collectives have supported a brutal and attacking military intervention, which is an example of this extreme situation. We can only get out of this inertia from the individual capacity to think [...].

Literary and artistic figures have been produced with a very effective media impulse, but without any content. Art has been replaced by entertainment. Men and women of opinion who participate in debates, who are interviewed, who are published, who act according to the script of economic interests, who create a cultural and artistic scene at their convenience to hide and deprive society of thinking about reality and the issues that concern us. [...]. Such is their control that it acts upon the individual consciousness."

In this sense, we want art to be free, shared and spread among all the people of this network called Steemit. Do not think only in pay this art can bring, let's look further, we are conscious creators who transmit their emotions into art. Let's not lose the essence of what this means to become simple MANUFACTURES OF ART that already there are many of them. Let's be CREATORS OF ART and put our hands, head and heart to work together for a greater good: Do not let art be lost.

Within the project we have a very varied team of Steemians who are looking to create a very complete platform for artistic development from this space.

We are excited to see you join us here! Steemit is a remarkable platform that is built to reward users for creating quality content. Its a logic called proof of brain.

As for TechChat, think of us as DJs that create tech content instead of music. We create content by looking for the most shocking, interesting, and exciting breakthroughs in the tech space. Basically - we do all the research so you don't have to.

We hope to hear your opinion on TechChat’s content! We always love to hear from our community.

Happy Steeming 🚀
