002 - With Leo Cheng of Machi X - DAOs, NFT Art & Music

Machi X is a DAO powered collective of artists and patrons, curating and collecting digital art.

This week we've got Leo Cheng, summoner of the DAO. We have a great chat about how Leo found himself in Meta Cartel, and how that lead to Machi X came to be, and what it's like using NFTs and DAOs to fundamentally change the way a major industry like art/music operates. Hint: it's way better for artists, so much so that they don't believe you when you explain. Enjoy!
