Sone is a 501(c)3 nonprofit registered in Portland, OR, USA. Our IRL work is centered around our physical location in S.E. Portland where we are renovating a former print shop into a music venue, cafe, print studio, and community hub for our neighborhood (and beyond). Our URL work is cooperatively owned and operated with open source code and publicly available data. No one can buy or sell what we create, not even us.

We do not accept VC-funding or private equity. What we build is in service exclusively to whom we build it for. All revenue is generated from grants, donations, community patronage, and income from our own product & service offerings.

We're interested in incentivizing altruistic outcomes. We believe art can be a vehicle for sustained wealth redistribution, challenging existing conventions, creating systems that better serve us, and regaining sovereignty from the silo'd rent-seeking platforms that continually betray our trust.
