The cost to use these spaces will be on a “what you can, if you can” basis. However, there will also be a schedule, for which priority will be chosen by audition – not what you can pay. A meal from the café will be included with each visit, also regardless of what is paid.
Those that use the spaces will have the option to be promoted by the village in whatever way provides the most exposure for the artist or engineer. We’ll also assist the creator with setting up an identity on maidsafe so that they may receive safecoin every time someone accesses their work.
If the creator is using the space with the intention of completing a specific project (which is preferred… though experimentation is both allowed and encouraged), they’ll receive a small amount of Circuitree, from the village, upon the completion of their project. The idea is to encourage completion of the project. (This will be done for resident artists and engineers as well.)
