Curating New Themes with @sndbox-alpha [Philosophy + Writing + Literature]

Wrapping up with Meetups and Philanthropy

---

@sndbox-alpha is entering the final days of curating Meetups and Philanthropy! For the past month, the Alpha Curation Team has been supporting a broad spectrum of Steemit.com posts on the subject of community activities and donation-based campaigns. There’s still time to submit your own work and initiatives to the curation program by following the guidelines, here.

A big thanks to the Curation Team of @steemitph, @nairadaddy, @kenan1989 and @zord189 for supporting such a robust program for the last month!

About Our Rotating Curation Program

---

@sndbox-alpha is a curation account with rotating themes and liaisons. Each month, a new theme will be announced alongside a new team who will be tasked with upvoting content. “Alpha” is a community account created for the first cohort of the @sndbox incubator; a diverse group of 100 Steemians representing nearly 20 countries and languages.

After some deliberation; 10 core themes were chosen by popular vote among incubator members. These 10 themes (outlined below) will be covered by different curators. The following are the themes that were selected through a recommendation process:

---

• Theme 1 : Art + Music (Read the summary, here.)
  ^{Curation Team: @djlethalskillz, @heymattosokol, @playitforward, and @paolobeneforti.}

• Theme 2 : Meetups + Philanthropy (Presently ongoing, click here.)
  ^{Curation Team: @steemitph, @nairadaddy, @kenan1989 and @zord189.}

• Theme 3 : Philosophy + Writing + Literature
  ^{Curation Team: @anomadsoul, @guyfawkes4-20, @fingersik and @martibis.}

• Theme 4 : Education + Science
  ^{Curation Team: @bitrocker2020, @jrswab, @jeffbernst and @teachblogger.}

• Theme 5 : Steemit Comments
  ^{Curation Team: @zord189, @aaronleang and @jaff8.}

As always, we strive to be 100% transparent for the sake of open critique and public use. The following are our preliminary guidelines for @sndbox-alpha’s use -

• 30,000 SP was delegated from @sndbox to the @sndbox-alpha account.
• No voting on @sndbox posts other than major announcements.
• Majority of curation dedicated to external (non-Sndbox affiliated) accounts.
• Curation practices to be reevaluated on a monthly basis.
• Curation Teams are compensated through 50% of SBD payouts (remaining 50% to be powered up).
• @sndbox retains full ownership of the account’s Steem Power.

A Month of Philosophy, Writing, and Literature
