The W3CR was inspired by the wisdom of Nature, its rhythmic cycling of growth and decay, which in turn enables new life to bloom.
Capital must not only appreciate. It must also serve as compost to become the seeds of future value creation.
The W3CR envisions a world in which capital is expended freely to the cultural realm, supporting creators, artists and builders, so that human potential is cultivated.
A living, closed-loop, generative ecosystem.

Kabuki
The heart of KABUKI beats for seemingly disparate musical genres such as Jungle, Jazz and Ambient. For more than 20 years his music productions covered the full spectrum of beat science, always zeroing in on a particular feeling.
Not content to express himself only through his compositions, Kabuki has also been busy to work behind the scenes, be it programming preset sounds for software synthesizers, creating sample libraries, or teaching sound synthesis at the Abbey Road Institute. Always in pursuit of new textures and ways to express himself, it was only a matter of time until Kabuki discovered the world of Modular Synthesizers.
Be it as a sparring partner in the studio, performing on stage at events such as Superbooth and the Tokyo Festival of Modular, or jamming with Jazz musicians, Kabuki developed his own unique voice on this instrument. Kabuki’s latest adventures have resulted in large-format AV installations operating on the fringes of sound, light and motion. This is the place where his interests for music, art and technology can finally meet. And more than style and aesthetics, he is in pursuit of the elusive element that keeps it all moving: the soul.

Nico
Nico is a multi-disciplinary game developer and artist. Her work has a general theme of seeing interactions and theories with a gamified lens. She works with interactive digital media, motion pictures, real time 3D, web and audio. Most of her work revolves around the idea of gazing at the same object with a different lens. Nico naturally orients towards fringe subcultures and things that are ‘counter mainstream’.
In 2022, Nico attended Mars College for a desert coliving artist residency. This catalyzed her exploration of alternative communities, which led to her launching the Agartha project: a gamified educational initiative democratizing solarpunk knowledge to the general public.

It is an homage to her first love basketball and is about the training you do when no one is watching and the grieving process that comes with reaching for your dreams.

He sees web3 as an opportunity to put on the map minorities that have been marginalized throughout history and create new narratives that make the internet a more inclusive space. Flowing seamlessly between IRL and url, Entes’ street art cultivates community that transcends hype and anchors itself in human value.

d3mo
A multi-disciplinary artist, always willing to learn new techniques and ways to create. D3mo is currently working on a collection of works called 'yh⁴' consisting of several biomes and creatures belonging to the same universe, an ode to nature's beauty. D3mo loves to share knowledge and also seeks out new inspiration coming from others. “Art is all about feedback between creators and that's why it's infinite. I love art and I feel like it is ultimately a mere expression coming from sensitivity and willingness to give and receive through contemplation, empathy, passion and more; therefore a great tool for humans to be connected not only within themselves but also between each other and their surroundings.”
