Fellow Nouners
I have been working with a talented Lego builder on a one off commission to make me a duck Noun in the style of a Blockheadz. He has totally smashed it out of the park, and it’s got me thinking bigger…
Instagram is full of Lego Blockheadz enthusiasts posting and sharing these customised characters from any movie, TV show or pop culture source you can name.
My proposal would be to engage my new friend Roland to work with him on translating as many Nouns as are feasibly translatable into Lego, and to share them on IG / Twitter / Pinterest / etc.
I feel that this would be another really fun and accessible way to introduce Nouns to people outside of the NFT community and help attempt to cement Nouns into pop culture at large by tapping into the Blockheadz community of builders and appreciators.
With Voadz already in the process of creating their own incredible Lego sets, I feel that additional (but different) Lego projects will only double down on the visibility to the Lego community.
I am asking for a grant of 2E to fund a thorough exploration, culminating with a set of instructions which would be made available to all (sensible permanent location of PDF instructions to be discussed), so that anyone could make their own Nounish Lego Blockheadz for just the cost of the relevant Lego pieces. Parts list complete with numbers for easy sourcing would be included.
Thank you for considering my proposal.
Best, Ian
