À Praça association has been following the Decentraland Project since its early days. In our first initiative we propose to organize a big amount of land with content that can be experienced by people of all ages, all religions, all genders, all walks of life.
We want to create a DAO in Aragon with the purpose of purchasing of a large slice of territory called Heaven - a thematic park in VR created from the extrapolation [hacking] of the idea of biblical celestial paradise.
This DAO will use a crowdfunding platform [something similar to 1Hive on District0x or other] to accept proposals from artists and content creators. The selection of the works is made by a group of experienced curators [Benevolent curatorial dictatorship].
We are interested in creating an ecosystem to finance and manage a portfolio of art work proposed by the artists in a following scheme:
One or more artists create a DAO in Aragon with a proposal of an economic relationship between them and those who support the project, plus a website for their creative proposal.
The artist proposes the project to DAO- HEAVEN.
DAO-HEAVEN can refuse the proposal, request more elements and, if accepted, have partial rights over the pieces supported.
General procedure summary:
Creation of the DAO-HEAVEN in Aragon.
Purchase of a slice of land proportional to the value of the total contribution.
Use of 1Hive Funding Platform [from District0x] to crowdfund the artist's proposals.
Promote the final work according to criteria to be defined in the future.
Upload the work in HEAVEN.
Considerations about the access to HEAVEN content:
Each DAO contributor will have free access to the platform.
The promotion of each finished work will be done in a public space on Decentraland during a limited time.
Every user can access a small portion [square meters] of HEAVEN without having to pay for it..
There will be a fixed entry fee set by the DAO Aragon contributors. Example: according to a time set: 1 hour = x amount, 24 hours= x amount, etc.
There will be a fixed daily maximum amount of revenue after which people do not pay to come. This limit could be, as an example, set by the formula: Total of contributions in DAO-HEAVEN /500 [to be defined by future DAO Aragon contributors].
Notes on implementation and roadmap.
We will start slow.
We are wating for Aragon to be launched as well as for a crowdfunding platform [something similar to 1Hive on District0x] to be build on ethereum. Nevertheless we will start working on the website that manages all these interactions in December 2017.
At this moment we are studing VR artists in order to choose two of the most interesting ones to kickstart the project. [Please help us by sending names of people you would like to see involved.]
It is our belief that the initial contents will shape the Decentraland. We want to create an immersive world where each one can dive into one´s own reflexions and thoughts, where architecture and art were conceived in order to allow an encounter with different cultures of the sacred.
Our goal is to turn HEAVEN into one of the main entry portals on Decentraland.

About the proponents:
The À Praça Association [http://www.apraca.net/in-english/a-praca/] was formed in June 2013 by a group of activists and artists. Our first goal is to stimulate thought and practices around a transversal vision of art, democracy, citizenship, science, philosophy, economics and technology, whose object is the integral and sustainable development of the communities.
