- Working on a massive series of Windows 95 themed art pieces called "Do You Want To Feel Something" to be released later this year.
- This isn’t the next Facebook.
This is a social operating system.
Every existing app and platform can already benefit from becoming Lens-compatible. When developers “port” their apps over it’s positive-sum for everyone. More Data + More Users = More Value.
To those building natively here:
There is room for apps of all scales and purposes, similar to a desktop or mobile operating system. Some apps here will become giants akin to Microsoft Office, Google Chrome, or Adobe Photoshop—universal platforms that become integral to the user's experience. These 'giant' apps are used by virtually everyone because of their broad utility and the network effects that come with widespread adoption.
Meanwhile, other apps will carve out their own niches, much like CCleaner, Notepad++, VLC, or WinZip. These are the 'utility' apps that perform specific tasks exceptionally well. They may not be universally known but they garner loyal user bases because they fill a need, solve a problem, or simply do their job better than any other app out there.
I encourage every dev right now to take a moment and look at the apps installed on their device. Lens has the capacity to host a similar diversity of applications, each contributing to the overall “Social Operating System” experience in its own unique way. Rather than compete with Facebook I would recommend building with the “Operating System” framework in mind and trying to solve your own niche problem/task first.
Not everything has to compete with Facebook’s scale!
////////////////////////////////////////////////////
A fun brainstorming game to play
////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Find an App or System Setting in your device’s OS and then ask ChatGPT for the Social OS equivalent.
Use this prompt:
I'm building apps on Lens (a new social networking protocol) and I'm told to think of it not as a Facebook competitor but as a new Social Operating System. They say there's room for apps at all levels, the same as a desktop or mobile operating system. So in that context, what would be the “Google Maps” of this OS?
* Social Network Navigation App: This app would map out the social connections between users, helping them navigate through their relationships. It could provide insights into how different users are connected, recommend potential new connections based on shared interests or mutual friends, and suggest paths for reaching out to new people.
* Event Discovery and Navigation App: This app could help users find and navigate to events within the social network. Just as Google Maps can help you find physical events and navigate to them, this app could help you find online events happening within the social network and guide you on how to participate.
* Content Discovery and Navigation App: This app would guide users through the vast amount of content available in the network. It could use algorithms to recommend content based on users' preferences and behavior, help users explore new types of content, and provide tools to navigate through different content categories.
* Trend Mapping App: This app could track and visualize trends within the social network. It could show what topics are currently popular, how trends evolve over time, and how they spread across the network.
What would be the Logic Pro?
* Social Media Music Studio: This app would allow users to create, edit, and mix music or audio tracks directly within the social OS. Users could then share their creations on their social profiles or collaborate with others. Features might include various sound samples, mixing tools, and the ability to record directly into the app.
* Podcast Creation App: This app would provide all the tools necessary to record, edit, and publish podcasts. It could also integrate with various social platforms to promote episodes, engage with listeners, and gather analytics.
* Audio Storytelling App: This app could provide a platform for users to create and share audio stories or spoken word content. It could offer tools for adding sound effects, music, and other audio enhancements.
* Collaborative Music App: This app would allow users to collaborate on music projects, providing a shared space where they can contribute tracks, mix together, and share their creations.
What would be the utility apps?
* Privacy Management App
* Content Scheduling App
* Analytics App
* Curation App
* Identity Verification App
* Anti-Harassment App
* Cross-Platform Search App
There’s a ton of opportunity here to build social apps which can sustain your lifestyle without needing to reach 1 billion users.

- **Introducing Lens Protocol V2**
Lens Protocol V2 – the next chapter in the evolution of Lens. V2 brings even greater control to builders and integrators as well as people exploring web3-powered experiences. Lens V2 retains its characteristic open design space that gives developers and integrators the choice.
Join us in shaping the future. Dive into the Lens Protocol V2 Open Source Codebase on Github: https://github.com/lens-protocol/core/tree/v2

🦋🎙️⚡️
My second Lens space. Gonna do this as close to weekly as possible!
See you Wednesday for a free flowing convo to continue to test out the lens spaces.
- Take **your** followers with **you.**
- Why do we collect social media posts here?
What good does having photos from @chaoticmonk.lens and @grams.lens in my wallet do me? Why on Earth would you collect a @chriscomrie.lens podcast or a monthly guide to Lens by @punkess.lens ??
Patronage? Show of support?
Okay, but we can do better. A wallet is like a personal cloud service, it’s a locker for your files. There’s (effectively) not much difference between an iCloud/Dropbox account and an Ethereum wallet.
We can create apps that store and retrieve data in a wallet. We can also leverage AI to use your collected data when generating new data.
I collect social media posts because at some point I’m going to be writing a post or making a video and AI will be able to show what my influences were and how those ideas were probably introduced to me. I’ll be able to list my influences and cite my sources.
I imagine in 2033 I’m going to be writing about the early days of Lens, the glorious beta years, and I’ll be able to talk to my ChatGPT assistant which is trained on my collected data, including Alice’s writings. It will be able to reference her guide and Chris’ podcast, answer my specific questions for things I don’t quite remember, and I’ll be able to generate a new photo in the style of @arterlioz.lens
The last era of social media gave everyone Followers. The next era will give everyone Supporters and Users.
Collect this to become a future User of mine 🙃

- my debut onchain release. produced by krono, the third.
- We're proud to introduce Lens Improvement Proposals (LIPs). This open, collaborative process will guide the future development of Lens Protocol.
Taking inspiration from the successful Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) and Aave Improvement Proposals (AIPs), LIPs takes a step towards decentralized governance. The LIPs process will foster an inclusive, transparent and collaborative environment.
You will find how to participate in LIPs in the Lens Protocol’s GitHub repository, which streamlines the community participation process. It gives anyone the chance to submit proposals, and promotes open discussion.
Let's dive into the first three proposals that are live today:
LIP-0: Establishing an Open Governance Model. A process where the Lens community can propose improvements to Lens Protocol. From the submission of proposals to transparent discussions — we aim to foster an open, collaborative, and inclusive decision-making governance model.
LIP-1: Open Standards for Algorithms. A proposal to establish open standards for algorithms — based on the open Lens data layer — that will encourage the development of third-party algorithms, diverse experiences and provide user choice.
LIP-2: Open Standards for Metadata. An initiative to establish metadata standards for Lens Protocol, promoting transparency, interoperability, and user empowerment.
Take a deep dive into LIPs in our latest blog: https://mirror.xyz/lensprotocol.eth/8uxN9fMYBOqyDW5yZ6O3DDdOLEv1jJtxcw9qk4c4wgM
LIPs are our next step in enabling community involvement in shaping Lens Protocol's future.

- GM Everybody!
- It’s about the music.
- the first raw iteration of my upcoming single.
all collectors of this demo will be gifted an edition of the upcoming official album version on Sound.
- Music is a funny thing. You can start a project and end up somewhere completely different then you intended. That's the story of "Provenance." ORIGINSTØRY was supposed to be a dance project but as I unpacked my truth the music came in a different direction. This track is important for many reasons though. It is a reclamation of my beginnings, an RIP to shame and a celebration of my ancestors. I'm a descendant of American slaves which means I do not truly know where I'm from (yes a DNA test can attempt to geo-locate, but its not the origin story. It's something that always hurt to acknowledge, especially when sharing this with people who can easily trace their origins. However to find the origin I turn to 1619 and the Bay of Campeche. From a kidnapped pirate ship the first slaves arrived to America. When these slaves touched water in the Bay of Campeche they became American. This new multi-hyphenated people have struggled and survived hardship and cruelty, erasure, and degradation. Yet still they rise. From the darkest moments of history they have achieved greatness and excelled in more ways than can ever be counted. Society has taught us to shame this moment, but from this darkness there is empowerment, catharsis, and closure. When people ask me where I'm from I can always hold my head knowing that I am the descendant of Kings and Queens who survived one of the cruelest moments in history. And today I celebrate my freedom as an expatriate carving my own path. It doesn't matter where you come from, you can be a superhero. Now dance baby because, "it's not you it's the city it's a jungle, take me back, take it back, back."
