Siol Collective
By Mark Cooney
Representing: Ireland
#KOCONTESTIreland
"Siol, the Irish word for seed, is the name of the collective and drink. The dandelion seed in Ireland represents the distribution of knowledge. In this instance, a digital forum was created with the intent to preserve traditions, focusing on Irish Traditional music, its identity, and the community it is a part of.
Through the distribution of the Siol QR coasters to participating accounts, our aim is to inspire like-minded people to share their traditional music and culture. The ultimate goal is to create a global network and database that celebrates global cultures & traditions, so we can be inspired by each other.
