Naming [product design step 0]

[0xjona]

We’re having a serie of issues related to the design of the visual identity and UX of the alpha.

Step 0 is a brainstorming session hold by @irenegia and @nicola to come up with narrative/metaphor to communicate the product and identify each part/moment of the protocol! This will help us set the limits and directions for the next stage of design.

@claudiofabbro will join this process to better learn about the protocol itself.

@irenegia @nicola the doc is in english! I'm updating due dates and the whole process

Tomorrow we’ll close the process about “naming”, it is not a due date yet but it means that the team won’t work actively on this and we’ll be waiting for a round of feedbacks while working on the visual identity of the protocol! Today is last day to improve the brainstorming https://filecoinproject.slack.com/archives/C03CJKWP2DR/p1654073649082749

After a serie of internal feedbacks it seems like the sport metaphor is a preferable one!

REPLAY sounds like an interesting name, same for MOVIOLA.

The team won’t discuss this actively from today, so we expect last feedbacks today from @nicola Still I’ll keep track of comments and improvements, please tag me.
