Play. Whimsy. Mischief. What if these were the kinds of words that framed our approach to the world? That’s what we’re setting out to research in our next report.
Play isn’t just a leisure activity; it’s a new mindset and a new approach to how we exist in, interact with, and build the world. One with the ability to impact just about any and everything.

Buying an NFT supports RADAR's research process.
Over 10 weeks, we'll explore far & wide. Mining for signals. Exploring rabbitholes, consulting with experts, speaking with sources. Synthesizing, writing, editing, polishing and publishing into nearly 100 pages of interactive, immersive media on play.
This sale will compensate the project team and community contributors, and fund the RADAR treasury to produce future reports.
Research at RADAR strives to deliver independent, rigorous, and approachable reporting that seeks above all to compensate contributors equitably.
The RADAR “Play” Patron NFT collection invites you to wear your love for play on your sleeve as a proud champion for a more playful future.
Evoking elements of nostalgia, DIY, and whimsy and featuring a unique deflationary burn mechanic, both the Angel & Advocate NFTs are designed to be your first pieces in an expanding series of Patron NFTs through future RADAR cycles – curating and building your legacy as a proponent of better futures.
Both “Play” Patron NFTs are works by Domingo Beta, a designer, creative director and cofounder of Veleta Studiolab, based in Colombia.
Domingo has become known in web3 for his experimental and multi-media aesthetic integrating 3D, fashion and AI. Domingo has developed brands and art for leading communities including Jump, Snaxshot, PLANT GANG, FWB, Rabbithole, Coinvise, and, of course, RADAR
RADAR is a research & venture ecosystem accelerating better futures. Our community includes over 250 strategists, foresight practitioners, researchers, theorists, and builders from across the globe.
While the Patron NFT collection for A More Play-Full Future supports decentralized futures research, unlocks exclusive access and is an opportunity to collect a piece of RADAR history, RADAR is not a pay-to-participate community. The Angel NFT offers behind the scenes access, insight, and connection to the research team via a token gated channel, but to join the broader RADAR server and community members application is required. If you'd like to apply to join us, please do at radardao.xyz
Research serves as inflection point and launchpad for RADAR's Futurethon, a reimagined and co-creative hackathon that invites future builders to bring their visions into reality – in the form of products, services, and communities poised for adoption.
This NFT does not buy you access to the Futurethon; but does offer allowlist, discount and recognition as an OG supporter to projects building a more playful future.
Futures work is often gated, in walled gardens or left to collect dust on clients’ shelves: detached from its creators, and disconnected from the context and trajectory of the world around it.
RADAR's token-enabled and community-supported approach evolves passive discovery into forward motion, creating a futures collective whose members are equitably valued and active participants in cultivating better futures.
