[5 minutes to read] Plus: Music industry economics

Weekend edition

Solar panels are powering a village of 100 people in the Amazon rainforest.

The tiny village in Ecuador uses solar energy to power its homes and boats, saving time and money it would have otherwise spent on fossil fuels. With a safer, easier route to school, class attendance has doubled.

The area also has more reliable satellite internet and expanded computer access. Take a look at the incredible photos here.

Today, we'll discuss how artificial intelligence could impact the music industry.

All this, and more, in just 5 minutes to read.

Together With Masterworks

Masterworks is taking on the billionaires at their own game, buying up paintings by world-class artists like Banksy and Picasso, and securitizing them for its investors 🖼️

When Masterworks sells a painting – like the 16 it's already sold – investors reap their portion of the net proceeds. Its investors have already received proceeds from more than $47 million in sales, realizing annualized net returns of 17.8%, 21.5%, 35% and more.

Now, Masterworks wants to do the same thing for you. By qualifying every offering with the SEC, Masterworks makes it easy for everyday people to invest in multi-million dollar paintings.
