And great ideas are everywhere. Establishing ideas as a major NFT category is my way of encouraging, normalizing, and democratizing innovation from a worldwide population of brilliant minds that might otherwise not have the opportunity to be heard and to monetize the inherent value in their creativity.\u201d &#8211; Guru Kathryn<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Explore the collection at: <a href=\"https:\/\/opensea.io\/KathrynColleen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/opensea.io\/KathrynColleen\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For the Guru, this is a type of intellectual humanitarianism. Guru Kathryn is no stranger to the world of creating new ideas, having spent a career in the Defense Technology industry, at various organizations including DARPA, creating new prototype technology systems of all kinds. This is, however, her first go at the NFT space as an outlet for her creative and humanitarian expression. Proceeds will fund her mission to forward global peace through self-awareness and self-sacredness.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Each idea is posted as an image with details on why the idea is needed, what makes it challenging, the big deal if you can make it happen, and four steps to bring it to life. Some concepts, like the redesign of K-12 education, come with additional details such a complete how-to guide for the new NFT owner. Only one copy of each idea will be sold.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\u201cNFTs, as I see it, have the enormous potential to not only revolutionize royalties for creators, but to democratize the creative space in its entirety, replace and improve on patents and copyrights, and to allow creators around the world to monetize not just their art, music and writing, but their novel ideas and concepts.\u201d &#8211; Guru Kathryn<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div><\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\u201cGiven a little time and a bit more development, NFTs will enable anyone, anywhere, of any age, to easily establish a creative work of any kind, especially ideas, and to license and track those works automatically. This NFT offering is my way of accelerating that future into being.\u201d &#8211; Guru Kathryn<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"attachment_5276\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5276\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5276\" src=\"http:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/E8ED062B-5CDB-45FB-B1FB-45B2C2D488FC-1024x674.jpeg\" alt=\"NFT Idea Collection #1 by Guru Kathryn Colleen PhD RMT\" width=\"1024\" height=\"674\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/E8ED062B-5CDB-45FB-B1FB-45B2C2D488FC-980x645.jpeg 980w, http:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/E8ED062B-5CDB-45FB-B1FB-45B2C2D488FC-480x316.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5276\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">NFT Idea Collection #1 by Guru Kathryn Colleen PhD RMT.
