I Built This Whole Platform Myself — Welcome to Millsmillion TV

Millsmillion TV opens with its founder on camera, explaining what the platform is and who is behind it. He wrote the code, records the music, and writes the content — this is what solopreneurship looks like when it is published in the open rather than described after the fact.

The message will change weekly. This is the one it starts with.

What he covers

• Why the platform exists, and what "autodidactic" means in practice here
• The three personas — Olusegun Morrison, 808 Dopamine, and Millsmillion TV — and what each one carries
• Where the site is going: comments, a shop, a tip jar, and possibly something closer to a community
• The personal thread underneath it: being the grandson of an orphan, and working out a history he doesn't have all of

Transcript

Welcome to Millsmillion TV. My name is Olusegun Morrison. You could call me Luce or Oluse. I am the founder of this platform, and what this represents is an example of solopreneurship. I wrote all the code for the website, I'm also the one who is putting out the music, I'm putting out all the content. What I decided to do was to take on an autodidactic journey of learning and self-learning, and then posting it up and sharing it with the world — with whoever stumbles upon some of the articles through searching, or maybe you've stumbled upon this through social media. This is the platform where I share everything.

We have the opportunity to comment. You can also support what I'm doing through the store — there's a shop — and I have a tip menu for those of you who have seen me on the street with my mask, beatboxing, busking on a corner.

Basically, what I'm doing here is developing a platform that could be a community. I don't know where this website is going to head as far as other visions that I have — 2.0 versions, maybe a social media network, who knows? But peruse the site, look around, see the different articles, you can use the search and search up different topics. This is a mixture of intellectual learning and also just entertainment and artistic expression.

I'm not really in academia, I'm much more of an artist, but I have empathy for a lot of the struggles that are going on in the world — plus my own family situation. Being the grandson of an orphan, I struggle with understanding my own past and my own history. And so what I'm doing with this platform is sharing everything and putting it out for you.

Make sure you join the newsletter so that I can keep you updated with some of the articles that we're going to be posting on here. And for support, you can drop a little $5, $10, whatever — it's basically my busking app, which is millsmilliontv.com/808.

This is a platform that has three personas. The Olusegun Morrison persona is more about philosophy; my artistic expression is poetry, and I want to learn history and deal with issues of morality and mental health. 808 Dopamine is my performance persona, and that's who I'm really looking to be as far as a career — I want to perform on the street and travel around the world. If the world is a safe place and everything is fine, then 808 Dopamine is just a fun performer who likes to entertain people. And then there's Millsmillion TV, which will be all of my AI posts and a lot of the AI videos that I generate. I like to be creative in how I use AI to create narrative pieces, poetic pieces, and informative pieces.

That's why I have it split up into three personas. Maybe in the future I can add your persona, or what you're dealing with in terms of posting up stuff — just like myspace.com. I don't know how it's going to play out. I don't really know.

This is only the beginning, and this is my first message to you. Come back to this website on a weekly basis and this message will change, but this is how it starts.

So — welcome to Millsmillion TV.
